Specifications

autoflashpowerdump
A resistive dump facility is included on the
GM200Rx and GM400Rx, to automatically
decrease the power charge should the
setting be reduced by the user. This will be
indicated by the green ready LED ashing
slowly until the power has been ‘dumped’
and the unit is ready at the new desired
setting. The unit can also be ashed using
the ‘Test Flash’ button to reset the unit to the
lower power setting.
Green Ready LED - The green ready LED on
the side of the unit shows the charge state
as follows:
Powerdown - LED off.
Charging - LED ashes quickly.
Ready - LED stays lit continuously.
Power Dumping (or requires dumping) -
LED ashes slowly.
photocell
The Photocell is a built-in light sensitive
trigger that allows the unit to be red from an
external ash source. The ‘Sync’ button (Fig
5.) on top of the unit allows the Photocell to
be switched on or off.
To turn the photocell ‘on’ simply use the
‘Sync’ button to scroll through the trigger
options until the ‘Cell’ icon (Fig 3.) is
highlighted. To turn the photocell ‘off’ press
the ‘Sync’ button until the ‘Cell’ icon is not
illuminated.
mountingunittosupportstand
Mount the Gemini unit on the selected
support system. The mounting bush on the
‘L’ bracket allows for two possible ways of
mounting the unit to the support stand - A
and B. Method B may be used if the light is
required to point either directly up or down.
transportingunits
When transporting any Bowens units, ensure
that all equipment is carefully packed into
appropriate bags and/or hard shell cases.
Make sure all items are securely placed
inside the appropriate baggage to protected
from any knocks.
When transporting ash units make sure to
fully discharge ash power before packing. A
quick way to ensure a unit is discharged is to
turn the unit on, wait for it to charge to 100%
and then open ash the unit using the ‘test’
button, then quickly turn off before the unit
has recharged.
Flash units can become very hot after use.
Always wait a minimum of 30 minutes before
packing to allow units to cool sufciently.
If any unit is dropped and/or knocked during
transport, always have the unit checked by
an authorised Bowens service/repair centre
before using.
