Battery and Charger

  • The Modus 600RT uses a lithium ion battery HLX-MD1 and it must be charged before use
  • Use only the MD1 charger to charge the battery
  • Remove battery from the charger when charging is finished and disconnect the charger from the mains
    A fully charged battery will offer approx 500 flashes at full power and even more when the power level is reduced. The composition and construction of the MD1 battery pack offers very reliable and fast refresh time for the speedlight.

How to store the battery

When not in use remove the battery from the charger or the speedlight and store the battery in a cool and dry place. Exposing the battery to higher temperatures can shorten the lifetime of the battery. Store the battery almost empty (one bar in the battery level indicator) when not used for a long period of time. For optimum battery life, use battery regularly and if not used for more than 6 months, charge the battery fully and use it with the Modus 600RT until the battery level is down to 1 bar again before storage.

Battery Lifetime

The lifetime of a recharable battery is limited. The capacity will drop progressively with use and the age of the battery pack. Replace the battery pack when the flash cycle time becomes longer or the number of flashes reduces noticeably. The battery lifetime can vary substantially depending on storage, operation conditions and exposure to unsuitable environmental conditions

Hähnel MODUS 600RT - Battery Lifetime - 1

Caution

  • Do not short circuit the battery
  • Do not drop the battery into water or fire
  • Do not drop or dismantle or subject the batteries to strong impact or continuous mechanical shock
  • Stop using the battery if the battery has any signs of damage or bulging the to housing and dispose of the battery in accordance with the appropriate local regulations

How to charge the battery

The HLX-MD1 battery must be charged before use. Use only the supplied MD1 charger to charge the battery. Connect the MD1 charger to the mains with the supplied mains cable and the power LED will light up red if connected correctly. To start the charge insert the HLX-MD1 battery into the MD1 charger and the green LED bars will start to illuminate, indicating that the battery is charging. 4 green LED's on indicates full charge. Remove the battery from the charger when fully charged.

Power Management

Use the ON/OFF Power Switch to power the flash unit on or off. Switch off if it will not be used for an extended period of time. Set as a master flash, it will turn the power off automatically after a certain period (approx. 90 seconds) of idle use. Pressing the camera shutter halfway or pressing any flash button will wake up the flash unit. Set as a slave flash, it will enter sleep mode after a certain period (adjustable, 60 minutes by default) of idle use. Pressing any flash button will wake it up.

C.Fn Disabling Auto Power Off function is recommended when the flash is used off camera. (C.Fn-APO)

C.Fn Slave Auto Power Off Timer is set to 60 minutes by default. Another option "30 minutes" is available. (C.Fn-Sv APOT, Page 42)

Flash Mode - TTL Autoflash

This flash has three flash modes: TTL, Manual (M), and MULTI (Stroboscopic). In TTL mode, the camera and the flash will work together to calculate the correct exposure for the subject and the background. In this mode, multiple TTL functions are available: FEC, HSS & second curtain sync, modeling flash. These can be controlled with the Modus 600RT or with the camera's menu screen.

  5. Turn the Select Dial to choose a desired flash firing frequency
    • After you finish the setting, press button and all the settings will be displayed.

Calculating the Shutter Speed

During stroboscopic flash, the shutter remains open until the firing stops. Use the formula below to calculate the shutter speed and set it on the camera.

Number of Flashes / Flash Frequency = Shutter Speed

For example, if the number of flashes is 10 and the firing frequency is 5 Hz, the shutter speed should be at least 2 seconds.

• To avoid overheating and deteriorating the flash head, do not use stroboscopic flash more than 10 times in succession
- After 10 times, allow the speedlight to rest for at least 15 minutes. If you try to use the stroboscopic flash more than 10 times in succession, the firing might stop automatically to protect the flash head. If this happens, allow at least 15 minutes' rest for the speedlight
- Stroboscopic flash is most effective with a highly reflective subject against a dark background
• Using a tripod and a remote control is recommended.
- A flash output of 1/1 and 1/2 cannot be set for stroboscopic flash
- Stroboscopic flash can be used with "buLb"
- If the number of flashes is displayed as “--”, the firing will continue until the shutter closes or the battery is exhausted. The number of flashes will be limited as shown by the following table.

  • You can also wirelessly control the Modus 600RT as a "Slave" unit using a "Viper TTL" transmitter as a "Master" unit attached to the camera hotshoe

Using (Master/Slave) with wireless 2.4GHz control function allows you to easily perform shooting with advanced wireless multiple flash lighting in the same way as TTL autoflash photography. The system is designed so that the settings of the "Master" attached to the camera are automatically applied to the wireless slave speedlights. Therefore you do not need to operate or adjust the slaves during shooting

- The "Master" attached to the camera can be a "Modus 600RT" or "Viper TTL transmitter"

  • Use the supplied mini stand to hold the Slave unit in upright position
    • Before shooting perform a test falsh and test shooting
  • The transmission distance may vary depending on the position of the slave speedlight, environment and weather conditions

Wireless multiple flash shooting

You can divide the slave units into one, two or three groups and perform TTL autoflash. In addition, you can set and shoot with a different flash mode for each firing group, for up to 3 groups, plus master.

• Auto Shooting with Two Slave Groups

Other Applications

Sync Triggering

- The Sync Cord Jack is a 2.5mm plug. Insert a trigger plug here and the flash will be fired synchronously with the camera shutter.

To avoid overheating and deteriorating the flash head, do not fire the modeling flash for more than 10 consecutive times. If you fire the modeling flash 10 consecutive times, allow at least 10 minutes' break for the camera flash.

Auto Focus Assist Beam

In poorly-lit or low-contrast shooting environments, the built-in auto focus assist beam will automatically switch on to make it easier to autofocus. The beam will light up only when autofocus is difficult and will switch off as soon as the autofocus is set.

If you want to turn off the auto focus assist beam, set "AF" to "OFF" on the C.Fn settings.

⚠️. AFF Illuminator must be set to on in the camera menu • If you find the auto focus assist beam does not light up, this is because the camera has got a correct autofocus.

PositionEffective Range
Center0.6~10m / 2.0~32.8 feet
Periphery0.6~5m / 2.0~16.4 feet

Bounce Flash

By pointing the flash head toward a wall or ceiling, the flash will bounce off the surface before illuminating the subject. This can soften shadows behind the subject for a more natural-looking shot. This is called bounce flash. To set the bounce direction, hold the flash head and turn it to the required angle.

text_image -7-90° 360°

• If the wall or ceiling is too far away, the bounced flash might be too weak and result in underexposure. • The wall or ceiling should be a plain, white color for high reflectance. If the bounce surface is not white, a color cast may appear in the picture.

Catchlight Panel

With the catchlight panel, you can create a catchlight in the subject's eyes to add life to the facial expression.
