The QUADX displays information about the power
available at each socket by means of four Red
LED numeric displays. In addition, this
information is converted to Ws data and shown on
the LCD display
.
Each red numeric display is aligned with an
associated outlet socket. Most of the QUADX
controls are aligned with the associated socket.
Looking at the sloping control panel area, from
the handle there are four On/Of
f toggle switches.
These switch the channels on or of
f if a head is
plugged into the socket.
The red numeric display will show -- when of
f and
will be blank if there is no head plugged into the
socket.
Beneath the red displays are two pairs of
adjustment buttons.

Pulsar Radio
T
rigger System
With the Pulsar Radio
T
rigger system you can free
yourself from trailing sync cables.
This multifunctional device can be used to trigger
flash units, film and digital cameras and light
meters up to 100m away
.
Because Pulsar is a radio transmitter
, rather than
IR, it allows for triggering around corners or
through walls and is not af
fected by high ambient
light situations. Choose from four individual
channels and six studio selectors, each providing
a unique ID for dif
ferent flash devices or combine
them to trigger all equipment within a given setup
or studio.
Because of its low-voltage operation, it is perfect
for digital cameras. Each unit can be used as
either a transmitter or receiver and operates from
two AAA
batteries.
