Ready lamp/Test function

10
The ready lamp and test button functions are combined.
Ready lamp [10] is illuminated when the generator is fully charged and
ready to fl ash.
Test Button [10] is used to test that all light settings are correct and that
the functionally is as expected. When the Test Button [10] is pressed, the
generator will fl ash and the Ready Lamp [10] will turn off while rechar-
ging. When the recharge of the generator is completed, the Ready Lamp
[10] will be illuminated again.

Flash before ready

The "Flash before ready" function makes it possible to fl ash before the
recharging of the generator is ready and fully completed. When a fl ash
is released before the generator is 100 % recharged a long "beep" will
sound, indicating an underexposed frame. Naturally the fl ash light may
not correspond fully to the set value. The underexposure of the frame
may be so small that it makes no signifi cant difference, however it may
be informative to get the feeling of the maximum repetition rate. The
underexposure frame may still be usable if the catch of the moment was
perfect.
