Charging and recycling

Check that the voltage selector (7) and the frequency - selector(8) matches the mains supply voltage. Turn on the main

(7)switch POWER (1).

The recycling time is very short. Variations may occur depend- ing on the selected flash energy and the mains power supply. The shortest recycling time is obtained with low flash energy

(8)selected with the A-, B- and A+B / A<->B-switches and the BRACKET (15) dial.

Flash duration

The shortest flash duration is obtained by using an Acute2 twin connected to the B sockets, the BRACKET dial set to 1/1, the A+B/A<->B switch to the A<->B position and the B switch set at 1/4.

(16)

The built-in photo cell (11) will sense flash release as well as IR-signals from most IR-transmitters. The photocell is turned off with the switch SLAVE (10).

Ready lamp/test button

The ready lamp button TEST (5) has two functions. First, it lights up when the unit is fully recycled. Second, it can be used to manually sync the unit. When you have chosen a lower energy setting with the dial BRACKET (15), release a flash and the unit will recycle for the new energy setting.

Connecting Camera and Flash meter

Synchronise by connecting the sync cable from the camera or flash meter to the sync socket (16).
