The Brightness (BRITE) menu option sets the flash duration which
affects the brightness. Flash duration can be adjusted in degrees of
rotation (proportional flash duration—changes with flash rate) or
time in milliseconds (msec—fixed flash duration). The flash duration
will be set by the last flash duration value adjusted. If you adjusted
degrees, the strobe will have a flash duration in degrees proportional
to the flash rate. If the adjustment was in time, the strobe will have a
fixed duration irrespective of the flash rate.
This is a live adjustment—if the trigger is depressed, the effect of
changing the brightness can be seen immediately.
