Applications
Synchronization
Both the Profoto Air Sync and Profoto Air Remote devices can be used to remotely
synchronize flash generators. All Profoto Air generators that have the same radio channel
set will be synchronized simultaneously. For generators that do not have a built-in Profoto
Air receiver, a Profoto Air device can be connected and used as receiver.
Remote control
Profoto Air Remote can be used for remote control of generators with built-in Profoto Air
functionality.
Instead of pressing buttons and turning controls on the generator, settings and functions
can be adjusted from the Profoto Air Remote device. It is possible to remotely control the
power settings of lamp heads, turn the lamp heads on/off and turn the modeling light on/
off. Changes made with Profoto Air Remote take immediate effect on the generator.
By the use of groups, selected lamp heads on one or several generators can be controlled
simultaneously with Profoto Air Remote. Group selection allows a large light bank with
several lamp heads, for example the background light, to be controlled as one light source.
Remote camera release
Both Profoto Air Sync and Profoto Air Remote devices can be used to remotely release a
camera.
For wireless remote release, one Profoto Air device, acting as receiver, is connected to the
camera and another Profoto Air device is used as transmitter of the release signal.
