Head cap.
Your UltraPro head includes a plastic head cap. This should always be fitted when an
accessory is not fitted, to protect the flash tube and the modelling lamp from accidental damage. You
should allow the modelling lamp to cool before re-fitting the head cap, and you must not switch on the
unit (or specifically the modelling lamp) with the head cap fitted.
Setting the controls
All of the controls are on the rear panel, and the chosen settings are displayed on the LCD screen.
1.
Slave sensor.
This ‘sees’ the light from another flash and, if switched on, will trigger the flash
head instantaneously. It will also operate on the infra red wavelength.
2.
Move left.
Allows you to scroll through the various options. When you have underlined a
particular function, as in “FLASH” in the photo above, you are ready to adjust that function.
Umbrellas of all types are normally adjusted for distance
from the flash head so that they are nearly, but not
completely filled with light, making full use of the size
available. If required however, they can be adjusted so that
they are closer to the flash head, in which case a smaller
area will be filled with light and the umbrella will then
create a smaller, harder light source.
