5. Information on use of special functions
PULS
μ
s / PULS deg
Flash duration. This function enables you to set the
ash duration. Using this function, you can
in
uence the brightness and focus of the object of observation. This adjustment can either be
made in absolute form (microseconds) or in relative form (degrees).
DELAY ms
Adjustment of delay time between the internal trigger signal and the
ash (in milliseconds). This
function enables you to set a
xed delay time between the internal trigger signal and the
ash.
Example:
The position of observation can be adjusted extremely precisely without altering the
ash frequency. You can shift the observation position within a motion cycle.
PHASE deg
Phase shift adjustment between the internal trigger signal and the
ash (in degrees, relative to
the frequency). This function enables you to set a
xed angle between the internal trigger signal
and the
ash.
Example:
The position of observation can be adjusted extremely precisely without altering the
ash frequency. You can shift the observation position within a motion cycle.
6. Changing the batteries
Using batteries/rechargeable batteries which are not completely charged reduces the operatio-
nal life until the next battery change. Never use or store the device with the battery compartment
uncovered.
How to proceed:
• Switch off device
• Unscrew the screws on the back of the device
• Remove batteries
• Insert new, charged batteries
• Dispose of old batteries in an appropriate way or recharge them (rechargeable batteries)
7. Scope of delivery
•
S
troboscope, operating manual, certi
cate, batteries, case
Additional scope of delivery for the version with trigger connection:
• Cable with plug for trigger signal
8. Accessories, optional
• Tripod adapter, tripod, calibration certi
cate, belt pouch
4. Operation
NOTE!
This chapter gives instructions for the operation of the version of the device without
trigger connection.
NOTE!
Special functions and information on how to use the version of the device with trigger
connection are described in chapter 9: „Additional operating information…“.
Position of buttons (Figure 1)
A = on/off. Hold down the button for approximately 3 seconds.
B = mode button. This button enables you to switch between different settings and modes in the
order determined by the display (picture 7, numbers 1-10).
NOTE!
Some modes only have an effect on the functioning of the device when external trigge-
ring is employed.
C = Increases the currently set value. Speeds up when this button is held down.*
D = Halves the currently set value. Speeds up when this button is held down.*
E = Doubles the currently set value. Speeds up when this button is held down.*
F = Lowers the currently set value. Speeds up when this button is held down.*
The following functions are activated by simultaneously pressing the buttons shown below:
B + F = Reset to the default settings.
A + F = Activate button lock / deactivate button lock.
