Direct lighting Popper! 6X Manuale utente

Traditional electronic ﬂashes and theatrical strobe lights are unsuitable for use in motion

picture photography, because their ﬂash is of too short a duration to be reliably recorded

during the actual camera exposure. The "POPPER" allows for simple and convenient

control of readily available theatrical strobes and "Hungaroﬂash" lightning units. By

providing direct user adjustment of both "Flash Intensity" and "Flash Duration" these

strobe units can be conveniently and effectively used for off-screen photo ﬂash effects,

without the expense of time or complexity in setting up a dimmer control console.

The "POPPER 6X" has 6 "Flash" pushbuttons, and digital controls for "Intensity" and

duration. It also has functions to record, play back, pause and loop sequences of ﬂashes.

It has 6 DMX signal output 3Pin XLR female connectors. Each of these output connectors

is opto-isolated, and carries the entire DMX stream. They are provided to conveniently

allow looping, daisy-chaining, or running individually to separate units, from any or all

output connectors. Flash units are addressed to channel numbers at the ﬂash unit its self.

USE:

1Set the strobe unit's internal dip switches to allow for DMX control of all 3 parameters:

"Intensity" "Duration" and "Rate" (See illustration below)

2Set the starting DMX value for Dataﬂash AF 1000 and Hungaroﬂash units to the desired

channel. See the list below under notes to determine the proper DMX starting value for the

desired POPPER 6X channel.

3Turn on the Popper 6X by pressing the "Power" pushbutton. If the green power LED

indicator does not blink, the internal batteries need to be replaced. (The POPPER 6X will

power its self off after 1 Hour of inactivity, or after 12 hours of continuous looping). To

power off manually, hold the "Power" pushbutton for 2 seconds.

4Power on all strobe units.

5Set the desired intensity on the "Intensity control" (This is a global adjustment, All strobes

will have the same intensity).

6Set the ﬂash duration on the "Duration control" (This is a global adjustment, All strobes

will have the same duration).

7Momentarily press the "POP" buttons to ﬂash the strobes.

RECORD/PLAYBACK FUNCTIONS

To ready the Popper 6X for recording, Press the "Record" button once. The record button

will light solid.

To begin recording, press the "Record" button again. The "Record" button will blink to

indicate that recording is in progress.

Press any sequence of ﬂash buttons, at the desired timing, and a sequence will be

recorded.

To end a recording, Press the "Record" button a 3rd time. The button will go dark to

indicate that it is no longer recording.

To playback, simply press the "Play" button. The entire recorded sequence will be played

back. Pressing the "Pause" button once will suspend playback, and pressing it again will

resume, where it left off. Pressing the "reset" button will reset playback to the beginning of

the sequence.

Pressing the 'Loop" during playback will continue to loop the sequence endlessly, until

either the "Pause" or "Loop" button is pressed again.

The sequence recorded in memory will remain in memory until it is erased, when a new

sequence is recorded, even after a power down or battery change.

Notes

You may daisy chain as many strobe units as you like off of any or all output connectors.

Dataﬂash AF 1000 units will "safety timeout" if they ﬂash continuously over a short period

of time. The yellow LED indicator in the Dataﬂash AF1000 head will blink to indicte the

timeout. When this happens, the system will cool down and reset its self in 2 minutes.

The duration value (00-99) indicates a true time, in 120ths of a second. A Duration value

of 00 will indicate a ﬂash of 1 120th of a second in duration. A Duration value of 01 will

indicate a ﬂash of 2 120ths of a second. etc. A duration value of 04 indicates a ﬂash of

1/24th of a second, and represents the shortest ﬂash which will reliably expose

consistently at 24 fps. We recommend beginning testing with a Duration value around 12.

To replace 3 AAA batteries inside the unit, unscrew the 4 phillips bolts holding the end

panel in place.
