Radio Function Box (Radio Operation); Auxiliaries Function Box (Slave; Fc, Audio); Test; Flash Readiness - Priolite M-PACK 500 Instruction Manual

Instruction manual PRIOLITE M-PACK 500 / M-PACK 1000 (HS) + PRIO HEAD 1000
By pressing the FULL button, the LED lamp lights up with maximum power. FREE mode
allows for adjustment independently of the selected flash power output by simultaneously
pressing the FREE button and turning the control knob. In PROP mode the light output is
proportional to the flash power setting.
Bear in mind that longer operation of the modeling lamp consumes battery capacity
which is then no longer available for flash triggering. Therefore, it is advised to limit
the duration with the pilot light switched on.

RADIO function box (radio operation)

For remote radio operation, use the three radio buttons on the right.
ON:
If the ON button is activated (control LED lights up), the flash can be triggered and
controlled by radio. Additional entries for TEAM and ID are required.
Team/ID:
Selection of a team (A, B, C, or D) or an ID (1 to 9) is done by pressing the Team or the ID
button and simultaneously turning the control knob until the desired selection is indicated on
the LED display. By adjusting all possible combinations, a maximum of 36 PRIOLITEs
(LED 400, series M, MB, MBX, M-PACK) can be individually controlled.
Team and ID can be changed only when the radio function is "ON".
AUXILIARIES function box (additional functions)
Slave:
If the "Slave" button is activated, an external flash is triggered via the photocell (see the
section entitled "Flash triggering" below).
FC:
IF FC (Flash Check) is activated, the modeling lamp goes off immediately after the flash
has been released and lights up again only after the unit has charged up to the selected
level. This ensures correct charging as well as renewed flash readiness. The flash control
ensures that the flash lamps light up when several flash units are used.
Audio:
If the "Audio" button is activated, flash readiness is indicated by an acoustic signal.

Test
