11. SWITCHABLE PHOTOCELL (SLAVE)

When switched ON indicator illuminated, the pack can be remotely triggered by another flash unit in your studio.

In difficult situations e.g. daylight, blinding or obstacles, the additional cell (code 11080) with 5 m cord (extensions available) solves most problems.

Alternatively use the FRC-SYNCRON (code 19316) cordless remote flash release.

12. SYNCHRONISATION SOCKET

The Amphenol secure locking system with standard 5 m cable is retained. Longer cables may be used.

N.B. Do not link ELINCHROM units by cable to other manufacturers sync outlets.

ELINCHROM uses low voltage (12 V) for security reasons and other systems with higher voltages may cause damage.

12. ACCESSORY SOCKET

Alternatively the ELINCHROM SYNCRON (code 19316) , cordless radio may be used with the FRC-1 transmitter (code 19306) which releases the flash instantaneously - faster but slightly slower than by sync cable. Therefore, use 1/60th for focal plane shutters and 1/125th for in lens shutters.

Alternatively mount an infrared flash trigger on the camera (e. g. Prolinca IR transmitter : code 40203)

Syncron Set : 19310

FRC1 : 19306
