In addition to the ON/OFF and TEST buttons the pack functions are simply controlled by means
of three multi-function buttons and a rotary control. In all cases the current status is shown on
the LCD display.
The backlight automatically switches on if the ambient light level is insufficient for comfortable
viewing.
• The MENU button selects the next lowest level of the menu.
• The rotary KNOB highlights menu items or changes values quickly.
• The A and B buttons select the appropriate flash channel for change while in the MAIN
menu.
• The B button also doubles as the SELECT button and selects an item from a menu or
changes the state of a function. e.g. LAMP ON or OFF.
• The A button also doubles as the DONE button and completes the chosen setting while
repeated presses takes you back up the menu structure.
Turning the pack On & Off
• Turn the pack on by pressing and holding the ON/OFF button.
• A splash screen similar to that shown will appear while the button is held down, and then
change to the menu display. Release the ON/OFF button.
• Releasing the button will cause the MAIN menu to appear and the pack to start charging the
capacitors.
• Turn the pack off by pressing the ON/OFF button and waiting until the splash screen
appears. Release the ON/OFF button.
• This allows less frequently used settings to be
changed. From the main menu press the menu
button twice.
• Turn the Rotary Dial to highlight the required
function.
• Press SELECT to go into the settings menu for
the chosen function.

‘Charge Rate’
This determines how quickly the pack will charge and can be
set to AUTO, FAST, SLOW, or MIN.
In all cases the pack will determine the charge state of the
battery and slow down the Charge Rate automatically as the
battery becomes discharged. It is advisable to keep the pack
set to MIN or SLOW whenever a faster charge rate is not
necessary. This will give more flashes from the battery per
charge and also preserves the life of the battery.
This allows the Charge Rate, Lamp Time, Radio Channel and Radio Studio settings to be
altered as desired.
‘Lamp Time’
This sets the timeout period for the modelling lamp to be set between 1 to 99 seconds.
‘Radio Channel’
This sets the radio channel (range of 1 - 4, or ALL).
‘Radio Studio’
This sets the studio channel (range of A - F).
