Quantum Instruments K37174 - Manual (Page 3)

Typical examples are shown below:
A and B outputs supplying camera and/or
flash power.
A: supplying camera or flash power;
B: no cord connected.
A: high voltage shut down;
B: supplying camera or flash power
A and B high voltage shut down. Blinking stops
in 30 seconds, then the indicators light steadily.
CD or SD cable will still power a camera.

Symptom
A flash or camera cable is
connected but the output
indicator is not lit.
C type Flash Cable is
connected to a flash and
the output light blinks for
30 seconds.
CD cable is connected to
a camera. The output light
blinks for only 2 seconds
when Turbo is first turned on.
CD Camera Cable connected
to one output, C Flash Cable
to the other. Both A and B
LEDs blink for 30 seconds.
The fuel gauge’s 25% green
light blinks for a few minutes,
and then all lights go out and
there is no power to the
equipment connected.
7. ERROR CONDITIONS and TROUBLESHOOTING
Solution
The cable could be broken, shorted, or it
may be the wrong cable. Connect the
cable to the other output; if the output
indicator does not light, the cable has
one of the above problems.
Turbo 2x2 has detected that no flash is
connected. This could be caused by a
bad cable or loose cable. Check that the
cable is securely connected and restart
Turbo 2x2.
No problem. Turbo 2x2 is testing the
presence of a flash.
Probably the “C” Flash Cable has dis-
connected from the flash (or the cable is
faulty). The CD cable will still provide
camera power, and its indicator will turn
on steadily in 30 seconds.
This is the low battery indication.
Recharge. Check that the charger is
connected to a live mains outlet that can-
not be switched off.

Charge at room temperature. Charge the night before, or charge just
before use to be assured of obtaining 100% charge.
Turbo 2x2 is supplied with a universal charger that works with an AC mains
power from 90 to 240 VAC. Your Turbo 2x2 is supplied with one of the fol-
lowing charger models: TRUS (USA, Canada, Japan); TRE (euro coun-
tries); TRUK (United Kingdom); TRA (Australia, New Zealand). Plug
adapters may be used to allow charging from any 90-240 VAC power out-
let. A voltage converter is not necessary.
Be sure the AC mains socket is an uninterruptible line (not switched).
The charge indicator [ ] will light when the charger is properly connect-
ed. It is important not to interrupt the charging so that the computer fuel
gauge remains accurate. If the power is interrupted, the fuel gauge may
read incorrectly for one charge cycle, but will correct itself on the next
cycle.
A full charge takes about 3 hours. For a 1.5 hour full charge time you may
purchase a second charger and connect it to the other socket of the Turbo
2x2. Do not use any other type of charger and risk damage to the
Turbo 2x2 and the charger!
The fuel gauge indicates charging progress as shown in the diagram.

The indicators “A” and “B” show status of the corresponding outputs.
A steady light means the output is supplying either flash (using
a C Flash Cable) or camera power (using an SD or CD Camera
Cable).
A Blinking indicator shows when high voltage has shut down
(but still supplying low voltage power).
Off indicates no power for that output.
