reduced if the capacity of the flash capacitor
decreases.
This happens if the studio flash unit has only
been used with low flash output or has not
been used at all for an extended period of
time.
To achieve the optimum output of the studio
flash unit once again, you must fully charge
the flash capacitor for at least 30 minutes:
• Press power switch
of the studio flash
unit so that it is in position I (ON).
• Press the PLUS
button as often as it
takes for the value 6.0 to appear in the
