I acquired this unit a short time ago and thought all of the components were included. Come to find that the head accepts and works best with a remote control for the focus. Didn't get that part with it! Can't seem to find any evidence online or someone with images of this piece.

Does anyone out there have this unit or know of what it looks like? Last I asked around, one guy mentionened the Rollei projector remote may perform the same operation but never came through with any confirmation. The lamp housing has a DIN plug hole, it looks like a Quantum Turbo cord plug or Kodak proj remote cord plug, just with a different contact configuration. lf anyone can help me it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Nikkolei (Nikon-Leica)
 
If you can take a look at it you may find that it has three wires at the DIN plug. It could be pretty simple to rig a switch to change direction of a focus motor if it's DC

I have a rolleimat universal with the remote control unit. Would you like
some help with the correct pinout, etc? The remote has an analog focus control, a button to turn the lamp on and a switch to hold the lamp on.
