NEVER CONNECT THE ESPRIT GEMINI DIGITAL TO BOTH A MAINS SUPPLY AND

A BATTERY SUPPLY AT THE SAME TIME.

THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED WHEN USED WITH MAINS.

DISCONNECT THE MAINS LEAD WHEN CHANGING MODELLING LAMPS &

FLASH TUBES.

The Esprit Gemini Digital unit may be operated either on a mains supply or with a Bowens battery source such as the Bowens Travel-Pak, Turbo-Pak or the Explorer 1500.

For mains operation, the mains switch (page 4) should be in the upper position (I). For battery operation the switch should be in the lower position (II).

The centre position is OFF (O).

NOTE: When operated from a battery source, the modelling lamp functions are not available.

When connecting a power supply ensure the power is OFF.

Connect the unit using the appropriate cabling.

If using a battery source, ensure the connector locks are fully tightened.

Switch the power source on, then switch on the unit.

The unit will charge and indicate it is ready for use.

Press the TEST button to check the unit fires.

Mounting

Mount the Esprit Gemini Digital unit on selected support system.

The mounting bush on the 'L' bracket allows for two possible ways of mounting to the stand / support. Method B may be found useful if the light is required to point down.
