Troubleshooting

Flash unit not firing

Ensure the unit is powered on, the sync cable is securely connected (or Skyport transmitter is paired and powered), and the flash head is not overheated. Check power settings and ensure the modeling light is not set to 'off'.

Inconsistent flash power

Verify that the power stability setting is engaged and check for any potential voltage fluctuations from the power source. Ensure the unit has fully recycled before firing.

Skyport transmitter not triggering flashes

Check that both the transmitter and flash units are set to the same channel and group. Ensure the transmitter has fresh batteries and is within range. Confirm the modeling light is not set to 'off', which can sometimes disable the flash trigger.

OLED display is blank

Ensure the flash unit is powered on and has received stable power. If the issue persists, contact Elinchrom support.
