Post subject: | Einstein 640 |
Hello, I just received a pair of Einstein lights last week (my first studio lights) and have a question that I can not find an answer to in any of the user manuals or online. I have the lights set up in a small room and I have noticed after making power adjustments using the Cyber Commander and Cybersync CSXCV unit that the lights will occasionally fire off a series of rapid fire flashes with no input from me or the camera shutter. I assumed it was possibly a built up charge in the capacitor or interference from the WIFI router in the other room or the TV in the same room as the lights and I thought I could negate this by I tripping the test button to release any charge, I have also changed frequencies in the lights and turned the TV off, all have had no impact. Both lights are on V50 firmware and I do not use the modelling lamps in either light. Any ideas on why this is happening or how I can prevent it would certainly be appreciated. |

If both lights are firing simultaneously, and you have verified the slave eyes are still off (verified on the flash, and after the triggering event happens), then I would suspect a Cyber Commander issue. Given the nature of Cyber Commander, there may be a series of trouble shooting questions, so I would recommend giving us a call to get this sorted. |

Mine go off from time to time as well, not often enough to be a problem. Its not a big deal. I use a generic plug in trigger. |
