2. The USB port is used for firmware upgrades. Firmware announcements and instructions will be made available on Phottix websites.
Please note:
Only the manual mode is supported when a flash trigger is connected via the sync port.
Transmission Channels
The Phottix Indra500 TTL Studio Light Wireless system has four channels; 1, 2, 3, and 4. The same channel needs to be set on the Indra500 TTL Studio Light when in wireless receiving mode as on the triggering device or flashes used to trigger the Indra.
Quick Flash Function
The Quick Flash function allows the studio light to fire when it is not fully cha­rged, i.e. the status LED is still flashing green. Quick Flash recycle times are faster; this helps for snap photography at short distances.
Quick Flash can be used for continuous drive modes, Quick Flash for continuous shot function can be enabled or disabled in the Menu (See the Menu section below).
Please note:
The Quick Flash Function makes flash firing a priority. Under-exposure could result if the subject is located too far from the camera.
Flash Exposure Bracketing – FEB
Flash Exposure Bracketing (FEB) can be used to automatically change the flash power over a series of photos. The camera will record a series of images with dif­ferent exposures. FEB is useful in run-and-gun situations as well as when shoot­ing scenes with different lighting conditions to help ensure a properly exposed photo. FEB can also be used for HDR photography.
The FEB function is supported but cannot be set on the Indra500 TTL Studio Light. The availability of this function depends on whether the trigger or camera is equipped with an FEB function. See your camera manual for more information on Flash Exposure Bracketing.
Flash Exposure Lock – FEL/FV Lock
Flash Exposure Lock (FEL, also FV Lock in Nikon camera) can be used to lock the flash exposure before a photo is taken. This is useful when manual spot me­tering is being used in a scene with different lighting conditions. While in TTL mode, press the camera’s function button to use this function. See your camera user manual for more information on FEL functions and usage.
The FEL function is supported but cannot be set on the Indra500 TTL Studio Light. The availability of this function depends on whether the trigger or camera is equipped with an FEL function. See you camera manual for more information on Flash Exposure Lock.

INSTRUCTION MANUAL
High Speed Sync – HSS/Auto FP
High Speed Sync (HSS) mode is used to shoot at shutter speeds higher than a camera’s set flash sync speed (typically 1/200-1/250s). This is useful when using aperture priority mode and in limiting ambient light. HSS results may vary with different camera models – refer to your camera user manual for more details.
Please note:
1. HSS function is supported by the Phottix Indra500 TTL Studio Light, but it cannot be set on the studio light itself.
2. The camera, flash trigger and receiving mode can greatly affect HSS mode. For best results in HSS mode please use recommended Phottix flash triggers. Please see the “Compatibility Table” below and refer to your flash trigger and camera user manuals for more details.
3. HSS function will not work in Manual and Multi Stroboscopic mode.
4. Use the HSS mode frequently will shorten the flash tube life.
5. Nikon’s flash protocols may limit the maximum sync speed of some Nikon camera bodies.
Compatibility Table
Second Curtain Sync - SCS
The Phottix Indra500 TTL Second Curtain Sync function makes the studio light fire at the end of an exposure, not the beginning. This helps capture special ef­fects when using slow shutter speeds.
Please note:
1. SCS function is supported by the Phottix Indra500 TTL Studio Light, but it cannot be set on the studio light itself. Instead please set the SCS function on your camera or flash trigger. For more details, please refer to your flash trigger and camera user manuals.
2. SCS function will not work in Multi Stroboscopic mode.
