Operating the radio-control system
DANGER
The radio-control system does not feature explosion protection.
Do not use the radio-control system in an environment featuring
flammable gases or liquids, such as benzine, solvents etc..
Do not trigger flashes in such environments.
WARNING
Triggering of flashes directly in front of the eyes of people or
animals may cause damage to the retina and serious sight
impairment or even blindness.
Never trigger a flash in the direct vicinity of people’s and
animals’ eyes.
CAUTION!
Moisture can start to build if temperatures change dramatically.
Allow the radio-control system to acclimatise to the environment
prior to switching on.
Operating the receiver
Switching the receiver on and off
To turn on the receiver, push the master switch to the ON position.
To turn off the receiver, push the master switch to the OFF position.
Setting up a remote channel
There are a variety of remote channels on offer to ensure several radio systems
within the same area of action do not interfere with each other.
Within a re
system, the transceiver and all receivers must be operating on the same remote
channel (CH). The receiver has (CH)1-3 remote channels and 1 Auto channel
available. To select a remote channel, proceed as follows:
Slide the channel selection switch to the desired position (Auto, 3, 2, 1).
I
f one or several slave flash devices within one radio system are each
operating on a receiver, the only remote channels (CH) which can be
selected on the transceiver in master mode are 1 to 3 and Auto (au). Remote
channels (CH) 4 to 15 are not supported by the receiver.
