ready indications and remote control
• RADIO - to use a particular channel/studio
setting on the Pulsar transmitter, simply turn on
the Pulsar unit and set the Pulsar to the required
setting; next, select the RADIO option on the
Creo generator by pressing the SYNC button,
during the initial ten second period while the
generator is in 'learn mode', press the TEST
button on the Pulsar at least five times (or until
the Creo flashes). The Creo will then learn the
channel/studio settings of the Pulsar and set
itself in accordance.
NB. The 'Radio' sync option will only work if
a Pulsar Radio Receiver Card is inserted into the
RADIO slot on top of the Creo control panel.
ready indications
Ready indicators are used to indicate when the
Creo has recharged to the set power level after
being triggered. By pressing the READY button on
the Creo control panel the user can select one of
four different ready signals.
The appropriate LED indicator(s) will show the
current selection:
• OFF - both LED indicators will be 'off' and no
ready signal will utilised to highlight the Creo has
recharged to the set power level. This setting
also disables the sounder from indicating a
button press.
• BEEP - the Creo will emit a clear 'beep' to
indicate that the unit has recharged to the set
power level. This setting also enables the
sounder to indicate that a control button has
been pressed.
• DIM - the modelling lamps will dim while the
pack is recharging and will come back on when
the Creo had recharged to the set power level.
This setting also disables the sounder to indicate
a button press. Because of the fast recharging
capabilities of the Creo, the lamps may appear to
not dim with low flash power settings.
NB. The 'dim' ready indication will only be
enabled if the modelling option is turned 'on' by
using the MODEL button on the Creo control
panel.
• BEEP/DIM - both 'beep' and 'dim' options will
be enabled to show when the Creo has recharged
and to indicate that it is ready to trigger.
• GREEN READY RING - the green ready indicator
around the Flash/Open Test button will stay fully
lit when the Creo has recharged to the set power
level. While charging or dumping flash power the
green indicator ring will rotate clockwise. Automatic
capacitor switching is used so dumping can occur
even if the flash power has been increased.
remote control
The Creo can be controlled remotely by using
one of the Bowens Infra-Red remote controls
including the Gemini IR Remote Control and the
Creo IR Remote Control. All main functions can
be controlled remotely except 1-Stop power
adjustments and REMOTE on/off. To set the Creo
to a particular radio channel press the REMOTE
button on the Creo control panel when the REMOTE
option is turned off, the REMOTE LED indicator will
then flash to confirm the IR channel can now be
altered and the Creo will display the current set
IR channel on the 'Channel B LED Display'; the IR
channel can then be selected by using channel A or
B +/- STOPS or TENTHS power adjust buttons. To
confirm the IR channel selection press the REMOTE
button once; the remote LED indicator will then
stay lit continuously to confirm the selection and to
indicate the REMOTE option is turned on.
