FLASH DURATION
Changing Flash Duration
(increasing sharpness)
Flash duration is set at F0, which is suitable
for most applications. However, images can
be sharpened by decreasing flash duration.
After synchronizing the flash rate with the
moving object, press and hold the
MODE key,
then press the ▲ or ▼ arrows to select levels
F0, F1, F2, ... F9. As flash duration shortens
the image gets sharper and less bright. Longer
flash durations are brighter and less sharp.
The display is retained for two minutes after the strobe is powered off. If
turned back on while the display is on, the strobe returns to the flash rate
shown on the display. The strobe powers off after five minutes of non-use.
Changing Default Flash Duration
F0 is the default, good for most applications.
To change, turn off the strobe. Press and hold
the
MODE key, then press the power switch .
SEL is displayed, then press the ▲ or ▼
arrows to select F0, F1, F2, ... F9. The selected
flash duration level becomes the default when
the strobe is powered on. Press to exit.
RECHARGING THE BATTERY
IMPORTANT! Use the provided HOTO AC
adapter/ charger exclusively and plug into the
correct AC output; others will cause damage.
When the Battery icon appears on the display,
turn off the unit and connect to the AC
adapter/charger. The indicator light near the
On/Off button will flash and turn solid as the unit is charged. The
indicator will go off when the strobe is fully charged.
