Dumb Revolver question
« on: April 12, 2016, 06:15:59 PM »
Cross post from the M&R forum here...

Hey all,

I am kinda sure this can be done by I need help with the sequence of buttons to push.

2014 10/12 Sporty EX
2 x Red Chili D quartz flashes

Need to figure out how to program Revolver in a way that the first revolution can have both Chilis ON, then second revolution have only one of the Chilis on and/or both off.

I can figure out how to have one single Chili unit be on/off per revolution, but I can't figure out how to toggle both. Where you select which head the quartz is in, you cannot choose multiple heads, only "any" or one specific head.

Thanks in advance

as far as I'm aware the sportsman's only have a single output on the PLC for all the flashes, that is, all of them either flash or not flash...

that being said, I'm curious how you are triggering only 1 of the chili's per revolution and not both.

That can't be. I had a previous Sporty E before the current EX's and if memory serves me right we could do both flashes as we saw fit. On my current Sporty we only have one flash as we are all discharge / HSA water base and only need one so not too sure. I'm sure Rich can answer this for certain.

You have to run one flash with the sensor which will flash all of the time and the other flash can be programmed in the machine to only come on during the revolution you want it to.
