The Ground Truth image displays a single, solid horizontal line. According to Rule 2 (UNDERSCORE & LINE RULES), this is a stylistic or background line, not a placeholder underscore. Therefore, the OCR result must ignore it and output nothing or only meaningful text. The provided OCR content is "____", which consists of four underscores. This is an incorrect interpretation of the line as a placeholder, violating the rule that stylistic lines must be ignored. The OCR has hallucinated placeholder underscores where none should exist in the GT. Hence, the OCR result is inconsistent with the Ground Truth.

05.1 Installation of the modelling light

CAUTION

In order to avoid burns, cool down the studio flash before replacing the modelling light!

CAUTION

Do not touch the modelling light and the flash tube with bare hands. Greasy fingerprints may cause the bursting of the lamps during operation! Wear thin gloves (special microfiber cloth available from DÖRR) or use a cloth for inserting or replacing the lamps.

1. Make sure to switch off the studio flash with the main switch (5) and to disconnect from main power supply.
2. Insert the long plug-in contacts of the modelling light (20) into the 2 holes of the modelling light socket (18) and gently push the modelling light down.

CAUTION

The modelling light is only designed to illuminate the object while the camera settings are made. It is not suited as a permanent light since it produces high temperatures which can harm flash accessories. In combination with conical snoots, softboxes, honey combs or other flash accessories the modelling light must not be used for more than 10 minutes.

05.2 Mounting onto a light stand

Suitable light stands optionally available from DÖRR or included in your kit.

Put the tripod socket (12) over the spigot of your light stand and fi x the locking screw (13). To adjust the tilt angle, loosen the locking screw (14), adjust to the desired angle and tighten the locking screw (14) afterwards.

CAUTION

Make sure that the studio flash is mounted stable and secure and cannot tip over. Risk of fire! Take care that that nobody stumbles over the cable connections.

05.3 Connecting to the camera

Plug the 3,5mm jack of the sync cord (21) into the socket (6) of studio flash. Insert the sync plug of cord into the sync socket of your camera. If your camera is not equipped with a sync socket, please contact your specialized retailer for the purchase of an optional flash sync adapter (available from DÜRR).

05.4 Power connection

Connect the power cable (7) to the main power supply and switch on the studio flash with the main switch (5) (position I = ON).

05.5 Test button

By pressing the test button (9), the studio flash is triggered manually e.g. to check the proper function of the studio flash or to give off excess energy after reducing the flash power (see also chapter 06, point 3 'Please note').

CAUTION

While operation never touch the ignition wire, the flash tube, the modelling light and the reflector – risk of burns and of electric shock! Never cover the ventilation slots.

1. Switch on the studio flash with the main switch (5). Set your camera to program mode M for manual settings (for details see the instruction manual of your camera).
2. Set the correct exposure time according to your camera's instruction manual. We suggest to set the camera to an exposure of 1/125s or 1/60s.
3. For an optimum exposure, we recommend to test various aperture settings (for details see the instruction manual of your camera) and to vary the flash power. The flash power can be adjusted variably from 1/16 to full power by turning the power control (11) of studio flash. We recommend starting with a medium aperture (e.g. 8) and a low flash power.

Please note:

After reducing the fl ash power, you must give off excess energy left in the fl ash condenser in order to avoid an overexposure of the subsequent picture. To do so, you have to press the test button (9) once or release the fl ash e.g. with a wireless fl ash trigger (optionally available from DÖRR).

Note

For quick and proper determination of the correct aperture setting, we recommend to use a fl ash exposure meter (optionally).

06.1 Modelling light

The modelling light (20) assists you in finding out the correct illumination. It does not influence the final illumination while shooting. To save energy and in order to avoid overheating, please switch off the modelling light after your test shootings (On/Off switch (10) to 0 position = Off).

CAUTION

The modelling light (20) assists you in fi nding out the correct illumination. It does not influence the fi nal illumination while shooting. To save energy and in order to avoid overheating, please switch off the modelling light after your test shootings (On/Off switch (10) to 0 position = Off).

06.2 Photocell (Slave)

The incorporated photocell (1) allows simultaneous triggering of the studio flash with a main flash, e.g. a system flash unit (see chapter 07).

Kindly note that the photocell reacts on great differences in brightness. In case that the photocell is exposed to intensive light like e.g. strong sunlight, the function of photocell may be limited as the photocell is not able to detect a sufficient difference in brightness anymore.

Please take care that the photocell is not covered by a softbox or other accessories.

In order to prevent undesired fl ashes released by photocell (e.g. triggered by another photographer), cover the photocell with the shielding cap (2).

CAUTION

Switch off the studio flash with the main switch (5) after each usage.

07 | WORKING WITH SEVERAL STUDIO FLASHES

In case you want to use 2 or more EcoLine II studio fl ashes, there are the following options to trigger them synchronically:

07.1 Sync cord and photocell

Connect one EcoLine II studio fl ash to your camera using the sync cord (see chapter 05.3). When shooting, the connected studio fl ash will be triggered and the other studio fl ashes will be released simultaneously by their photocell.

07.2 Wireless flash trigger (recommended)

Connect a radio sender to your camera and each EcoLine II studio flash with a radio receiver (radio sender and receiver optionally available from DÖRR) and all the connected studio flashes will fire simultaneously. As an alternative, only one studio flash can be connected to a radio receiver and the additional studio flashes are triggered simultaneously by their photocell.

07.3 System flash units

Note

To use a TTL system fl ash unit (optionally available from DÖRR) as main fl ash, set the TTL fl ash unit to a low manual power e.g. 1/128. This will prevent measuring pre-fl ashes, which would trigger the EcoLine II studio fl ash too early. In this case the EcoLine II studio fl ash could not recharge fast enough, to trigger together with the TTL main fl ash.

Connect your system fl ash unit to your camera (for details see the instruction manual of your camera/system fl ash). Point the fl ash refl ector to the top or to the side so that it won't aff ect the image result. Adjust ll ash power to the lowest power level manually (e.g., 1/128). While shooting, the system fl ash is now used as main fl ash and triggers all EcoLine II studio fl ashes simultaneously via their photocells.

Note

It is not recommended to use the incorporated camera flash to trigger the photocell, since most digital camera models fire one or more pre-fl ashes.

CAUTION

Switch off all studio fl ashes with their main switch (5) after each usage.

08 | MAINTANCE

08.1 Replacing the fuse

CAUTION

Switch off the studio flash with the main switch (5) and disconnect from main power supply before replacing the fuse!

If the fuse is defective, switch off the studio flash at the main switch (5) and disconnect from main power supply. Unscrew the screw cap of the fuse compartment (8). Replace the fuse type F10AL 250V 10A (optionally available). Close the fuse compartment with the screw cap.

CAUTION

To ensure safe protection against overstress, only use a fuse type F10AL 250V 10A

08.2 Replacing the modelling light
