Appendix
Battery mode
The D1 can be set to low power mode enabling it to be supplied by a battery inverter. By
reducing the current and using the D1 in battery mode, the Profoto BatPac can supply up
to four D1 at the same time. If the D1 are used in standard mode, the BatPac can supply
max. two D1 at the same time with a limited performance.
Operating instructions
To toggle the battery mode, go to standby and press the “Model” button for 10s. The display
will toggle between “bt” (battery mode) or “- -“ (normal mode). To activate this function, the
generator needs to be restarted by removing and reconnecting the mains supply.
Power on mode
The D1 normally starts to standby when mains are connected. In some cases the user may
want the D1 to turn on immediately and this can be done by changing the power on mode.
Operating instructions
To toggle the power on mode, go to standby and press the “Test” button for 10s. The display
will toggle between “P0” (power on to standby) or “P1” (power on immediately). The
next time the generator is started it will enter the chosen mode. Note! In “P1” mode, the
generator will go to whatever the generator was set to when mains was last disconnected.
If it was in standby, it will go to standby, if it was turned on, it will be turned on.
Display mode
If the D1 is mounted upside down in a fixed installation, reading the power setting on the
display may be awkward. To solve this, the user has the option to change the display mode
which will change the orientation of the display.
Operating instructions
To toggle the display mode, go to standby and press the “Slave” button for 10s. The display
will toggle the letters “AA” with the right side up, or upside down, indicating the display
orientation.
