Energy control
The energy output is regulated over seven f-stops. The energy can partly be adjusted with the ENERGY
switch (13) in 2 f-stop increments, from 1/1 down to 1/16 of the total energy (equivalent to five f-
stops) and also via the ENERGY dial (12) for fine-grained energy control in 2/10 f-stop increments.
Choice of modeling light
First set the MODEL (11) to EXT or BAT. The maximum modeling light is 65 W. Profoto uses a 65 W
high efficient halogen lamp equivalent to a 90 W standard halogen lamp. Acute/D4 and Acute2
heads can be used with a special adapter, supplied by Profoto. The modeling light is constant and
does not vary with the energy chosen.
EXT : Continuous 65 W modeling light is possible when the Profoto Adapter 85 W is connected to
mains outlet and modeling light selector switch is set to EXT. No power will be discharged from
the battery if the adapter is connected to mains outlet. A fully recharged battery in this position
gives you up to 160 full power flashes and unlimited usage of modeling light, for more details
please read “Technical Data” .
BAT
: In this position the modeling lamp is connected to the battery. This position is to be used
when working on location. A fully recharged battery in this position gives you up to 160 full power
flashes or 50 minutes modeling light time.
OFF:
If the switch is set to OFF, the modeling light is off.
Connecting camera & flash meter
The sync socket SYNC (5) allows the camera or flash meter to be connected. The 5 m sync Cord
can be extended with sync extension cords. Further sync connections can be made with the
Profoto sync interconnection cable or by so called “hard wiring”.
Recycling
The recycling time is approximately 2.6 seconds at full energy if the battery is fully charged. When
extremely short recharging times are required, for instance when rapid-firing a continous series
of frames, choose lower energy settings. The lowest energy setting offers the fastest recycling
rate (0.09 sec. or 10 flashes/sec.).
Photocell
The built-in photocell (6) will sense flash release as well as IR-signals from most IR-transmitters.
The photocell is disabled when the SLAVE switch (7) is switched off.
