Safety Note

English

According to safety regulations, we draw your attention to the fact that these

electronic flash units are not designed for use outdoors, in damp or dusty conditions and should not be used after being exposed to sudden temperature changes causing condensation. They must always be connected to an earthed (grounded) mains supply.

On no account should any object be inserted into the ventilation holes.

The units may retain an internal charge for a considerable time even though disconnected from the power supply.

Do not use without permission in restricted areas (like hospitals, etc.).

Do not use in explosive environnements.

Flash tubes and modelling lamps

Flash tubes and modelling lamps in use are very hot!

Never touch a flash tube or lamp before the unit has cooled down and is disconnected from the mains (min 30mn).

Do not fire flashes from short distance (less than 1m) directed at a person and avoid looking directly into the flashlight!

Keep a min. 1m distance from any flammable materials.

Keep generally distance to other operating units.

Transport

Transport the flash unit with care, either in its original packaging or other corresponding packaging fit to protect it against knocks and jolts.

Transport only in complete discharged conditions. Wait a minimum of 30 minutes after disconnecting from the mains supply before packaging and transportation.

Never drop the flash unit (danger of flashtube breakage)

Power cable

To guarantee safe operation, use the cable supplied.

The cable has to be HAR-certified or VDE-certified. The mark HAR or VDE will appear on the outer sheath.

The cable set must be selected according to the rated current for your flash unit.

Do not use a multiple adapter to connect one or more flash units per single mains socket.

Flash systems store electrical energy in capacitors by applying high voltage.

For your safety, never open or disassemble your flashes.

!• Only an authorised service engineer should open or attempt to repair the units.

Internal defect charge capacitors may explode whilst the unit is in use, never switch on a working flash unit, once it has been found to be faulty.

Do not connect on the fllash unit to mains supply without mounted modelling lamp or fllash tube due to high voltage at the contacts!

Life Danger!

Included basic features

English

The following basic features are easy to access and they are similar to previous Elinchrom compact flashes.

Flash power up and down buttons

Modelling lamp mode button (prop / min /max / off)

Photocell on / off button

Ready charge beep on / off button

Test-flash button

3.5 mm synchronisation socket

NEW EL-Skyport Wireless Triggering. Note: To function the integrated

Receiver requires the optional EL-Skyport Transmitter.

Additional advanced programmable features

All the new features and functions can be customised.

Please read carefully how to configure the new features.

“Eye-Cell” automatic & manual mode

Some cameras may release before the main-flash, several pre-flashes to avoid the red eye effect. In this case a normal photocell would respond and release a flash with the first pre-flash of the camera. To avoid incorrect synchronisation the intelligent Elinchrom Eye-Cell detects camera pre-flashes. The Eye-Cell function can be activated in “Automatic Mode” or in “Manual Mode”, even confiiguring LED pre-flashes. (Only for advanced users, read carefully the instructions before changing any parameters).

EL-Skyport wireless triggering & remote control

D-Lite it can be triggered using EL-Skyport Transmitter.

“Group” and “ Channel Frequency” settings can be customised on each D-Lite it unit.

Power and modelling lamp steps setup

Normally flash power adjustments are in 1/10th steps per touch. While modelling lamp can be operated in (prop / min / max /off) modes.

Temperature controlled FAN management

The cooling fan switches ON automatically if the unit temperature increases. The microprocessor controls the unit temperature and the fan. If the ventilation is blocked or the fan does not work, the display shows E8.

Flashtube replacement

English

If the unit does not flash but the ON/OFF switch indicates that there is power, it could be that the flash tube needs replacing. Flash tubes have a long life with average use,

but multiflashing in long sequences can cause overheating of the electrodes leading to premature ageing, or perhaps the flastube is broken or cracked.

To replace the flash tube:

1.Switch off the mains switch

2.Remove the mains cable

3.Take the unit from its stand or lay it horizontally on a rigid surface. It will need to be held firmly whilst removing and replacing the tube.

4.Allow the flash tube and modelling lamp to cool for several minutes. They may be very hot.

5.Carefully remove and store the modelling lamp.

6.Use a protective glove to remove the flashtube:

A – Pull the flash tube firmly out of the terminals

B – If the tube is broken, use security gloves. Avoid cutting yourself!

C - If the tube is broken, never touch the metal electrodes and ensure that the unit is disconnected from the mains and discharged, wait min. 30 minutes! Use an insulated tool to pull out the electrodes.

7.Take the new flash tube. A glove or "plastic protection" MUST BE USED. Contact with your fingers on the glas, will cause dark markings on the tube when it is used.

8.Check that the tube is correctly aligned (central) and that the trigger contact is gripping the tube.

9.Re-connect and test the unit as usual.

Vor dem Start

Deutsch

Das D-Lite it Blitzgerät ist mit einer Multivoltage-Technologie ausgestattet und kann mit 90V -260V /50-60

Hz Stromnetzen verwendet werden. Lediglich der Einstelllampenwert muss dem jeweiligen Stromnetz entsprechen. Das Stromnetz muss geerdet sein. Alle D-Lite it-Geräte sind mit einem speziellen verschließbaren Bajonettring ausgestattet - wie alle anderen Kompaktgeräte und Blitzköpfe des Systems. Das Reflektorenbajonett ist kompatibel mit Reflektoren und Softboxen bis zu 1,5 kg, z. B. Rotalux 100 x 100 cm.

Setzen Sie das Kompaktgerät auf ein Lampenstativ. Entfernen Sie die Schutzkappe, indem Sie den

Verriegelungsring (A) nach links drehen, die Schutzkappe ebenfalls nach links drehen (B) und nach vorn entnehmen. Reflektoren werden in umgekehrter Reihenfolge adaptiert.

Achtung: Wechselbare Blitzröhren müssen korrekt und fest in der Steckhalterung sitzen bevor das

Blitzgerät eingeschaltet wird. Die Blitzröhre nur mit Schutzhandschuhen berühren, bzw. wechseln! Die

Halogenlampe darf beim Einsetzen nicht mit den Fingern berührt werden (Plastikschutzhülle dazu benutzen).

Inbetriebnahme

1.Überprüfen Sie, dass die Netzanschluss-Steckdose geerdet ist und die Stromspannung mit der des Blitzgerätes / Einstelllampe übereinstimmt.

2.Der Netzschalter muss auf Position AUS stehen.

3.Netzkabel am Gerät einstecken und dann erst mit dem Stromnetz verbinden.

Elinchrom-Servicecenter kontaktieren.

 

Eye-Cell – Intelligente Multifunktionale Photozelle

Die eingebaute Fotozelle lässt das Gerät bei Blitzimpulsen automatisch synchron auslösen.

Die D-Lite it Fotozelle ist für den Studioeinsatz optimiert worden. Direktes und starkes einfallendes Halogenlicht reduziert die Empfindlichkeit der Fotozelle.

Kompakt Kameras mit integriertem Blitz und der Anti Red-Eye Funktion konnten bisher mit herkömmlichen Studioblitzanlagen nicht verwendet werden, da die Fotozelle schon mit dem ersten Vorblitz synchronisieren würde. Die Eye-Cell kann automatisch oder manuell so programmiert werden das sie Vorblitze ignoriert und erst mit dem Hauptblitz synchronisiert.
