Protection of the Flash circuitry is by means of a Circuit Breaker mounted on the
control panel of the Pack. This will operate under extreme conditions of use and
can be manually reset after a short period of cooling by depressing the button until
it locks down.
FAST/SLOW Charge Switch
z The ‘FAST/SLOW’ switch should be set to ‘SLOW’ if the current capacity of the AC
power supply is limited or fast recycling is not required. Switching to ‘SLOW’ will
reduce the current drawn from the supply by approximately 1/3rd.
z It should be noted that switching to ‘SLOW’ charge will also extend the charge
times at maximum power - See specifications for details.
Flash Heads
z The Packs are designed to be fitted with one or two DUO-LITE Flash Heads
(BW-3015), with a maximum modelling lamp rating of 650W.
z To fit or remove a Flash Head, first ensure that the Pack is switched off and
disconnected from the supply. To fit a head, insert the tab on the front of the
Flash Head plug into the socket and then press down firmly on the cable entry end
to ensure latched retention. To remove a head, press the spring latch away from
the plug and lift from the cable entry end.
z Heads from the BOWENS 220/240V QUAD system may be used with the Pack
but with the following limitations:-
1. Splitter boxes SHOULD NEVER be used.
2. A 1.5k QUAD Head will only operate in combination with another head,
of any power rating. The Pack is designed not to charge if the total
power rating of the heads fitted is less than that of the Pack.
z For detailed information on the operation of the heads, general maintenance, flash
tube and lamp replacement, and accessories available, please refer to the
appropriate Instruction Manuals supplied with the head.
Flash Power Selection/Indication
z
By using the two Flash Head sockets and associated controls, asymmetric and
symmetric combinations of flash power are available from one or two Flash
Heads.
z The ‘POWER’ switch sets the TOTAL MAXIMUM flash power available from the
Pack. The MAXIMUM power selected, 600, 1200 or 2400W-s is shown on the
digital display and represents a coarse control range of 2 f-stops. This power can
be made available from EITHER or BOTH sockets depending upon the setting of
the ‘COMBINE/ISOLATE’ switch.
z The ‘COMBINE/ISOLATE’ switch in combination with the number of Flash Heads
fitted, gives a further f-stop adjustment. This provides the facility to have two
separate Channels, A and B, with individual sets of controls, OR to combine them
with one set of controls.
