What to do if some Elinchrom BX 500Ri units do not fire in “Grp” mode?
If some Elinchrom camera accessories units aren't firing when triggered in “Grp” mode, make sure the channel selector switch is set to the same group. Try reducing the distance to any non-working unit. Also, verify that the transmitter is in the same trigger mode, either Speed or Standard.
What to do if the Elinchrom Camera Accessories test flash works, but the camera won't trigger the flash unit?
If the test flash works, but your camera isn't triggering the Elinchrom flash unit, first check the hot-shoe fitting. If that doesn't work, connect the 2.5 mm to PC SYNC cable instead of using the hot-shoe connection.
How to fix limited distance range with Elinchrom Camera Accessories?
To address limited distance range with Elinchrom camera accessories, try the following: * Reposition the units. * Increase the distance to walls and ceilings. * Position the antenna of Transmitter and Receiver. * Use an RX extension cable to reduce the distance between the modules.
How to troubleshoot Elinchrom Camera Accessories when no flash unit can be triggered in “All” mode?
If no Elinchrom flash unit can be triggered when the Transmitter Mode “All” is selected, check if the transmitter is switched on. Also, verify the battery polarity and ensure the receiver module is correctly connected to the unit. Confirm that the frequency selector switch is set to the same channel and that the transmitter is in the same trigger mode (Speed or Standard).
