RADIO SLAVE 4i
Radio Slave System for Remote Flashes and Motor Drives
Quantum’s Radio Slave 4i system allows you to synchronize any
number of remote flashes without long sync cords, or use it to
trip motor drives at great distances. It uses digitally coded radio
signals that work indoors, outdoors, around corners and
through walls. This superior interference-free operation permits
many Radio Slaves to operate in the same area. And, unlike
other slaves, it cannot be overpowered by the light of a flash.
The Radio Slave 4i system syncs up to 1/500 sec. with focal
plane shutters, 1/1000 with leaf shutters. Faster than other
wireless sync, Radio Slave 4i is virtually indistinguishable from
“wired” sync. And, there is no waiting between triggers as with
infra-red slaves. When mounted on a camera with a hot shoe,
the Sender (transmitter) unit connects directly without a cord.
The Remote (receiver) connects directly to the flash using the
flash sync cord. Adapters are not needed. Confirmation of radio
signal is assured by Radio Slave’s status light. It also warns hours in advance of low battery. Each Radio Slave has 4 channels
of operation and is available in 4 discrete frequencies, to avoid interference from other shooters.
◆ Trigger any number of remote flashes with-
out a sync cord. Or you can trip a motor
drive camera, or a remote power pack at
great distances.
◆ Instant re-triggering for multiple flash
bursts. Faster than any motor drive se-
quence.
◆ Range is up 350´ (110m), or 200´ (60m)
with the antenna down
◆ Hot shoe
mount for the
Sender allows
attachment to a
camera shoe,
and sync cord is
not required.
◆ Or use the supplied sync cord to connect to
camera sync. Can also be mounted to
brackets, dead shoes, etc. with velcro (sup-
plied).
◆ The 4i Remote operates up to 400 hours on
4 AA batteries and 800 hours with 4 AA
lithium batteries. Also runs on AC power
with optional AC adapters.

◆ Syncs up to 1/500 sec. with focal plane shut-
ters, 1/1000 with leaf shutters. Extremely
fast synchronization means Radio Slave 4i is
virtually indistinguishable from “wired
sync”.
◆ LED status lights on the Sender and Remote
confirm proper operation and/or low bat-
teries.
◆ User selected coded channels permit
many Radio Slaves to operate in the same
area with superior interference free
reception.
◆ Radio Slave 4i is compatible with the older
Radio Slave 2 & 4. Be sure to match the la-
beled frequency (either A, B, C, D) with
your previous units.
