7.2.1 

Phase Delay 

In  the  External  Phase  Delay  Mode  the  flash  is  delayed  from  the 
external  trigger  by  the  number  of  degrees  set  in  the  DELAY 
PHASE  menu  (+345.0°  to  –360.0°).    One  revolution  is  360°.    The 
display will show the 

PHASE 

icon to indicate the delay mode.  See 

Figure  9  for  examples  of  the  effect  of  setting  various  PHASE    
delays with respect to the trigger point.    

Figure 9  Triggered Phase 

The  Phase  Delay  tracks  the  sped  of  the  target;  the  strobe  is    
continuously computing the delay angle for the current speed.  In 
the Menu, the adjustments happen in 

real  time

, so if the strobe 

is flashing the user can view the effect of changing the display. 

7.2.2 

Time Delay 

In  the  External  Time  Delay  mode  the  flash  is  delayed  from  the 

external  trigger  by  the  me  in  milliseconds  (msec)  set  in  the 

DELAY TIME menu (-50.000 to +50.000 msec).  The TIME Delay 

is  absolute  and  remains  constant  irrespecve  of  the  speed  of 

the target.  The display will show the 

TIME 

icon to indicate the 

Delay  Mode.    The  effect  is  similar  to  Figure  9  above  but  the 

delay will be in the millisecond se8ng in the TIME Menu.  In the 

Menu, the adjustments happen in 

real  me

, so if the strobe is 

flashing the user can view the effect of changing the delay.
