Trigger & Remote System

Elinchrom Wireless System

Two in one. Flash triggering and wireless studio remote control of all RX unit functions.

A new miniaturised, very secure high speed

data transmission system providing hand held or

computer wireless function control of all Elinchrom RX power units. There is also a “Universal Set” for flash synchronisation with any other flash system.

Huge technology advances have allowed the

modules to be as small as 18- 30 g each except for the Universal Receiver, which weighs 51 g

including its re-chargeable battery.

For multiple flash unit control, there are 8 frequency channels and 4 workgroups.

EL-Skyport offers four powerful wireless modules:

EL-Skyport Transmitter 19351 EL-SkyportReceiver Universal 19352

This module controls basic functions of an Elinchrom RX unit to which a Transceiver RX 19353 is attached. To control all RX functions the USB Transceiver RX 19354 and the latest EL Skyport software is required which also offers additional features such as “strobing”.

The Transmitter synchronises remote flash units when each is fitted with either a “Universal” (fitting all flash brands) or the Transceiver RX (fitting Style RX, Digital RX and Ranger RX units). The RX

Transceiver also provides control over the power

and modelling lamp of all Elinchrom RX flash units, directly from the Skyport Transmitter.

Features

•+/- Buttons to change flash power settings of RX units and to switch Modelling lamp on/off, without using a computer.

•Studio operating area is about 50 m and 120 m outdoors.

•Includes Hot-shoe with sync socket.

•Test button for manual flash trigger.

•Interference free operation with 40 Bit security.

•Switch to select 8 frequency channels --- for example between separate working areas.

•Switch to select 4 Workgroups --- adjusting and synchronising individual units or groups

•The long life Lithium battery provides 50000 flashes or approximately 3- 6 months lifetime.

•The “All” switch controls all units in Workgroup 1-4.

•The moveable antenna optimises reception and working distance.

EL-SkyportUSB Transceiver RX 19354

The USB Transceiver RX module fits any Mac™ or Windows™ computer. By installing the EL-Skyport software, all Elinchrom RX flash units

can be controlled. The program automatically

searches for the “Transceiver RX” and “Universal Receiver” modules.

Note: Full remote control is only available by using a full RX Transceiver system. RX flash units or other flashes using the “Universal Receiver” can only offer synchronisation and strobing options.

The Universal Receiver is compatible with Classic Elinchrom units and any other flash brand. Delivered with EL - standard sync cable and 3.5 mm jack, to connect to other flash brands. The internal, rechargeable Li-Ion battery provides about 30 hours of battery operation. To maximise battery life, the Auto-Standby function activates when the unit is not used for 4 hours.

The charger can be connected to the mains

whilst the Universal Receiver is in operation. The status LED shows charge and operating modes.

Features

•Group and frequency channel settings.

•When used with the EL-Skyport wireless software, this module is recognised as a flash unit and accepts both triggering and “Flash- Delay” settings --- for example where sequenced flash may be required and some other EL-Skyport features.

•The Li-Ion battery recharges in approx. 3 hours.

•The LED indicates charge and operating modes.

EL-Skyport Transceiver RX 19353

This module fits only Elinchrom RX units, using the integrated multiple interface for triggering and for the remote computer operating option. No internal battery is required, just plug into a Style RX, Digital RX or Ranger RX flash unit (Please remember to double check the “Group” and “Channel Frequency” settings) and the Transceiver RX is ready to use. To control flash power, model- ling lamp on/off and flash synchronisation, requires only the Transmitter. To control all RX functions, the latest EL-Skyport software and the USB RX module is required. The EL-Skyport software also offers additional features, such as the programma- ble “Flash Delay”, Flash-Counter and other control features will be added as future software upgrades.
