Post subject: | Einstein modeling lamp always on half power |
Just received two Einstein units, including a cyber commander and two CSXCV's. Both units were working fine for +-35-40 flashes. The modeling lamp on #2 was originally set at 'sync model power with flash output'. At random it bumped the lamp to about 1/2 power and will not turn off. It will increase in output to full, but will not go below half power. Thought it might be the CC so I removed its battery. Also removed the CSXCV with no change. Also unplugged power from wall outlet for +-30 seconds. The flash appears fine. One other comment, the modeling lamp power bar stays about 2 stops below the flash bar when you adjust the flash output. Not sure what to do next? I read a similar post where it could be related to a pocket wizard, but since I have a CC I'm not sure. The other Einstein appears to be working fine (for now). Thanks for your help in advance. |

After removing the CSXCV and leaving it out did you press the easy set button to see if everything returned to working order? RMS |

This unit will have to come in for service. |
