INTRODUCTION

The Voltage Smart PhotoMaster lighting systems use a power supply

unit and up to four detachable PA8 light heads. Each Light Head

uses a professional plug-in flashtube, 100-watt ESR adjustable quartz

modeling light, and bare bulb capability, both vertically and

horizontally. The Light Heads are fitted with Photogenic’s unique

quick-change system for holding accessories made by Photogenic

Professional. Unlike monolights, light heads can be mounted upside

down.

Before using your new PhotoMaster for the first time, please

read this manual carefully and acquaint yourself with the

controls and features. In this way, you can quickly get the

greatest benefit from your new unit and maintain an efficient

and safe operation.
