FM Wireless Control
Your Duolight 250 is equipped with a built-in FM wireless control. This is a good triggering option when using
your light off of your camera in strong light or need to trigger your light from a longer distance.
To use, be sure that both the Wireless Control Channel (21) on the Duolight and the wireless control channel
on the trigger are set to the same position. You can verify that the channels are set correctly by pressing the
test button on the trigger while your Duolight is powered on and set to either the M, S3 or S4 mode.
Mount the trigger into the hot shoe of your camera. When you press your camera’s shutter button to take a
picture, the Duolight will fire.
Operating on Battery Power
Your Duolight can be powered by either 4 AA batteries using the AA battery holder included with your light
or using a rechargeable lithium ion battery pack (optional).
Using AA Batteries
Remove the cover of the AA battery holder and insert 4 fresh AA batteries using care to follow the direction
of the diagram inside of the battery box. Improperly inserting batteries will keep your Duolight from
functioning and potentially cause damage to the unit.
Using Rechargeable Lithium Ion Batteries
Your Duolight 250 is compatible with an NP-550 type battery. This is available as an option from your
ProMaster dealer.
Attaching the Battery/Battery Pack
Position the battery pack (AA holder or rechargeable battery) into the battery slot on the top of your
Duolight 250 with the battery pack contacts facing towards the rear LCD panel of the light. Gently press down
on the battery pack and slide it backwards until it locks into place. To remove the battery pack, gently press
down and slide the pack towards the front of the light.
External Power Source
The Duolight 250 can be powered by either an AC or DC external power source. Both a 110v/220v power
supply and a 6v dc power cord are supplied with your Duolight 250.
To use AC power, connect the barrel connector from the power supply to the External Power Jack (20). Plug
the AC cord from the power supply into an appropriate AC power source.
