1.3 transceiver RFS
radio transceiver with 10 digitally coded channels for wireless remote con-
trol and flash triggering of the broncolor rFS flash units from a Pc or Macin-
tosh computer. the effective number of available channels depends on the
connecting flash unit. the transceiver is contained in a plastic housing and
has an uSB connection cable as well as a sync cable. a base plate is mounted
underneath the housing. the computer supplies the unit with power. there-
fore there is no need for an additional energy source. the system software is
supplied on a data carrier.
the transceiver allows the operation of all unit functions from a Pc or Macin-
tosh computer, however the operating control remain active on the unit front
plate. the actual control condition is shown on the computer.
Flash triggering for shooting must take place directly from the camera. With
digital camera systems which have a sync connector at the Pc or Macintosh
computer, flash synchronization can be affected directly via the sync jack on
the transceiver rFS; that means there is no need for a separate rFS camera
transmitter. the operational distance for power packs outdoors is up to 50 m;
in closed rooms up to 30m, for compact units up to 30 / 20 m. each com-
munication between transceiver and flash unit is inicated by the green led.
