‘Auto Off’
This allows the pack auto-off period to be set in the range of 1 - 60 minutes or
NEVER. The pack automatically switches itself off if the cobntrols or Sync. have not
been in use during the selected period.
‘Backlight Mode’
This allows the LCD backlight mode to be set to OFF, ON or AUTO. The display will
be adequate in OFF or AUTO under most working conditions. In AUTO the backlight
will only light if the ambient light is insufficient and a setting changed. It will turn off
shortly afterwards if the controls are not used.
There a number of possible methods of synchronising the pack to the camera or any
other remote triggering device. These can also be used simultaneously allowing
maximum flexibility:
‘Sync. Cable’
Two Sync. sockets are provided for a hard-wired triggering system. This allows a
camera to be directly plugged in using the supplied Sync. cable. At the same time a
flash meter or other remote triggering device may also be plugged in to the other
socket. The Sync. cable may be extended using Sync. Extension cords if required.
‘Photocell’
The photocell provides a means of triggering the pack from an external flash source.
Just ensure that the red photocell window on the top panel can ‘see’ the flash source.
Go to the BASIC FUNCTION menu and set the photocell to ‘on’.
