3. Energy control
3.1
Changing the flash energy
Use the "up/down" keys (10 / 11) to control the flash energy (flash intensity) of lamp
base channel 1 and 2 respectively the 3 lamp base outlets (5 / 6). Whole numbers are
full f-stop intervals, decimals indicate 1/10 f-stop intervals. Brief pressure on the keys
"up/down" runs the power up (or down) by a 1/10 f-stop interval, prolonged pressure by
a full f-stop.
The maximum flash energy goes up to level 10, the minimum to level 3 on channel 1,
resp. up to level 9 and down to level 3 on channel 2. The maximum asymmetry is
therefore 6 f-stop respectively 7 f-stop intervals.
3.2
Individual energy distribution (asymmetry) Verso A2
The flash energy is divided up as follows between the three lamp base outlets.
Channel 1 controls the lamp base outlet I
- Lamp base outlet II and III not in use =
100 %(1200 J) over outlet I
- Lamp base outlet II and/or III in use
=
50 % (600 J) over outlet I
Channel 2 controls lamp base outlet II und III
- Lamp base outlet II or III in use
=
50 % (600 J) over the outlet in use
- Lamp base outlet II and III in use
=
25 % (300 J) per outlet
The control range of the flash energy is as follows:
- Channel 1 (without using channel 2):
over 7 f-stops from 1200 J to 9.5 J
- Channel 1 and 2 or channel 2 (with 1 lamp base):
over 6 f-stops from 600 J to 9.5 J
- Channel 2 (with 2 lamp bases):
over 6 f-stops from 300 J to 4.7 J
Each channel is individually controllable, which means that when both channels are in
use, the unit performs like two independent power packs each with 600 J.
3.3
Individual energy distribution (asymmetry) Verso A4
The flash energy is divided up as follows between the three lamp base outlets.
Channel 1 controls the lamp base outlet I
- Lamp base outlet II and III not in use =
100 % (2400 J) over outlet I
- Lamp base outlet II and/or III in use
=
50 % (1200 J) over outlet I
Channel 2 controls lamp base outlet II und III
- Lamp base outlet II or III in use
=
50 % (1200 J) over the outlet in use
- Lamp base outlet II and III in use
=
25 % (600 J) per outlet
The control range of the flash energy is as follows:
- Channel 1 (without using channel 2):
over 7 f-stops from 2400 J to 19 J
