Operation
Connection to a power pack
The flash head cable is plugged into the flash socket of the Elinchrom power pack. Then
the generator will be connected to the mains outlet using the power cable.
Elinchrom offers three versions of this Ringflash with different flash
connectors for the EL power pack range:
• Ringflash 3000, for Elinchrom power packs up to 3000 J
• Ringflash 1500, for Elinchrom battery power packs Ranger RX , Ranger RX Speed
and Ranger RX Speed AS
• RQ Ringflash, for Elinchrom battery power packs Ranger Quadra and Ranger
Quadra RX.
Third party manufacturers
Even similar flashhead sockets and plugs are used by other manufacturers, the Ringflash
cannot be connected to generators from these manufacturers. Ask your Elinchrom
service if suitable adapter cords for those brands exist.
Mechanical connection of the flash head cable
• Before connecting the flash head cable to the flash socket of a power pack, turn off
the lamp switches of the power pack and switch the power pack off.
• Make sure that cables, plugs and connectors are not damaged.
!
As a general rule plugs must only be changed while power packs are
turned off.
