EL-SKYPORT - REMOTE CONTROL SYSTEM
The EL-Skyport system allows photographer's to break
free from sync cords and unreliable IR systems. Many
improvements have been made to the EL-Skyport system
since its launch.
Various levels of function and control are available
depending on the units you have : The Universal receiver
module can trigger cameras via optional shutter release
cables and is compatible with all Elinchrom classic units,
most speedlights and most other flash brands for
triggering.
Units with built-in Skyport such as D-lite RX One, D-Lite
RX 2 / 4, BRX 250 / 500, ELC Pro HD 500 / 1000 and
Ranger Quadra Hybrid can be triggered and have the
additional control of power settings and modelling lamp
on/off.
The Digital RX series and the Ranger RX series all require
the additional Transceiver RX module to be used, when
the control of power settings and modelling on/off is also
available. On these units, the SPEED sync mode can be
activated via the EL-Skyport Software.
