Profoto D1
Functionality
Power supply
The D1 unit can be connected to
Most gas generators with an output of 800 W constant load, or more, can power the D1 unit. Thanks to the two stage SMPS (Switch Mode Power Supply) technology, no ProGas unit is needed.
10Warning:
Never use ordinary household extension cords to elongate the power cable.They may overheat.Always unwind cord reel extension winders fully before use. Contact your Profoto dealer for proper equipment.
Due to the two stage SMPS technology, the D1 could make a audible sound during the recharge cycle.This is fully normal and could be seen as the sign of power being charged into the unit.
Energy control
The current energy level of the flash light is shown in the Display [1] in
The Setting Knob [7] is used to adjust the energy level, in 1/10
Modeling light
The Model Button [10a] is used to select one of three modeling light alternatives:
•PROP: The modeling light intensity is automatically adjusted to correspond to the energy level of the flash light.
•FREE: The modeling light intensity is manually set, free from any connection to the energy level of the flash light.
•OFF: No modeling light.
The Model Set Button [11],in combination with the Setting Knob [7],is used to change the level of the free modeling light.
Sync signaling
The D1 unit can be synchronized in different ways; via cable, via infrared (IR) light or via the Profoto Air radio system.
•The 5 meter sync cable can without restrictions be elongated with a sync extension cable. The Profoto sync interconnection cord or so called “hard wiring” may be used.
