Digital Monolight
2
Thank you for choosing the Impact Digital Monolight. This
professional-grade studio lighting unit has a user-replaceable 250W
halogen modeling light, 500 w/s ash tube, and a lightning-fast 1.5
second recycle time. The monolight is constructed with a durable
housing, intelligent adaptive thermal control, and CMOS chip
circuitry.
The powerful Digital Monolight also has an integrated 2.4 GHz,
16-channel wireless radio receiver. When partnered with the
matching transmitter (available in the Digital Monolight kit), the
user has the ability to trigger the monolight from a distance of 328′
(100 m). Paired with the unit’s integrated group functions, the user
can arrange and digitally segment each of their remote devices as
needed. Additionally, the ash’s seven optical slave modes enable
the device to communicate with your on-camera master ashes,
seamlessly triggering after up to ve preashes.
This fan-cooled monolight is constructed with an adaptive S-mount,
which makes it available for pairing with any other S-mount
reector or light modier. Additionally, the standard 5/8″stand
mount has a built-in umbrella mount, expanding the number of add-
on options available for the unit.

The Impact Digital Monolight includes a pre-installed ash
tube and a modeling lamp that's packed separately in the
box. Both lights are user-replaceable. Be careful not to
touch the ash tube with your bare hands since this could
cause damage to it. Please use cotton gloves or a soft, dry
cloth when touching or handling the ash tube.
The monolight’s modeling lamp is a halogen bulb within a glass sleeve. You may
touch this glass without cotton gloves. However, wiping it with a cotton cloth
after handling it is recommended. To install the modeling lamp, see Installation
and Replacement Guide on page 23.
The monolight ships with a protective cap. Always remove
the protective cap before plugging in or powering on the
unit. To remove the cap, hold down the mount release and
turn the cap counterclockwise. Pull the cap from the mount
and place it to the side for later use.
Attach the narrower end of the reector by aligning one of its protrusions with
a hole in the rim of the monolight. Hold down the mount release, fully insert the
reector, and turn it clockwise. You'll hear it click into place. Let go of the mount
release.
