Using the Intert S1
Powering On/Off
There are two ways to power on your S1. To use the battery power, simply insert the battery to the battery
compartment of the ash head and turn the power switch to “DC”. To use an AC power supply, insert the
included AC converter into the underside of the unit and place the plug into a 110V/ 60Hz (220V/50Hz)
grounded power outlet. Turn the power switch on the light to “AC”.
NOTE: The AC power mode can be used with or without the battery in place. The battery will not charge in
the light and must be charged with the separate charger included with the light. This lengthens the battery’s
life, as it is not constantly discharged and recharged when used in AC mode.
WARNING: If the light displays a “P1” error code on the screen, the light is overheating and must be turned
off for at least 15 minutes to allow the internal components to cool down.
Adjusting the Flash Power
Your S1 is packed with 500Ws of power. This power is adjustable over a 9-stop range and can be adjusted
in 1/10th of a stop intervals. Use the power adjustment dial on the back of your S1 to adjust the power from
10.0 (full power) to 2.0 (lowest power) in manual mode. Power is displayed on the LCD screen. When in HSS
mode, the power will only adjust from 10.0 (full power in HSS) to 8.0 (lowest power in HSS).
Using the Test Function
The “TEST” button will illuminate blue when the ash is charged and ready for use. The blue indicator light
will turn off immediately after the ash has red, and turn on again once the light has full recycled. Recycle is
also indicated by an audible beep when the “BEEP” function is enabled.
Using the Modeling Lamp
To use the 10W LED modeling lamp, press the “MODEL” button on the back interface of the S1 to toggle
through two different modeling lamp intensities or turn it off.
• 50% - Toggle the modeling lamp to 50% for half of the modeling lamp power.
• 100% - Toggle the modeling lamp to 100% to use the modeling lamp on full power.
Setting Channels
**Setting the control channel is only necessary when using the Intert remotes. If you are using a third-
party radio system or optical slave, you can skip this section. When using the manual remote, 15 channels
will show, but only the rst 8 can be used with the S1.
Having 8 unique radio control channels allows you to use your lights in close proximity with another
photographer without interfering with one another. Press the “CHANNEL” button to toggle through the
8 available isolated control channels. Make sure the channel selected on your S1 matches the selected
channel on your Intert remote.
