General - RFS 2.2 transceiver as transmitter
Table of Contents
The RFS 2.2 transceiver operates as a remote control or radio flash trigger for one or more broncolor power packs or monolights equipped with an RFS 2 interface. Power packs or monolights not equipped with an RFS 2 interface can be operated by connecting an RFS 2.2 Transceiver (as receiver) – see Chapter 10.
All devices, whether with a built-in RFS 2 or an external RFS 2.2 receiver are compatible. If several RFS 2 units are to communicate with each other, they must be set to the same studio address. RFS 2 units with the same studio address can be remote-controlled simultaneously. By using different studio addresses, several groups of devices can be reliably operated independently of each other. Flash synchronisation takes place either via the hot shoe, or using the camera’s sync contact. The operating distance is up to 50 m in the open air, or up to 30 m in a building. The transmitter is fitted with two AA batteries.
Attention
Although this radio system allows up to 99 studio addresses, the number of channels that is effectively available is restricted by the RFS 2 flash unit to be controlled.
For further instructions, please see the operating instructions for the flash unit concerned.
