Metz MECABLITZ 64 AF-1 digital Olympus - Manual (Page 187)

16 Care and maintenance
• The screen surface should only be cleaned
with a soft, dry cleaning cloth (e.g. microfi-
bre cloth).
• If significant soiling nevertheless occurs,
the screen surface can be cleaned with a
slightly moist soft cloth.
Never spray cleaning fluid on the surface
of the screen! If cleaning fluid penetrates
into the frame of the screen, the compo-
nents there will be damaged beyond
repair.
16.1 Firmware updates
The firmware version (V.10 in the example) of
the flash unit is shown in the start screen

The flash unit’s firmware can be updated
through the USB port
ቭ and adjusted to the

ge at www.metz.de.
16.2 Conditioning the flash capacitor
The flash capacitor built into the flash unit
undergoes a physical change when the
device has not been used for a long time.
For this reason it is necessary to switch the
device every three months for approx.
10 mins. The power supplies must deliver
enough power so that flash standby lights up
no later than 1 min after switching on.
16.3 Reset
The flash unit can be reset to the factory set-
tings when delivered.

ቨ button as often as it takes
for the selection menu to appear.
• Press the sensor button on the
touch display.
• Press the sensor button on the touch
display.
• Press the sensor button on the touch
display.
All settings are adopted immediately and
the flash unit is reset to its factory settings.
