6-stop power range, represented by a 1–6 (f-stop)
numbered scale on the display. The adjustment knob
changes the monolight output value by 0.1 f-stop
increments.
To increase or decrease the power output of the
monolight, turn the adjustment dial. This will adjust

TEST button to fire the flash after the output has
been decreased.
