Introduction  
QUADX  
WARNINGS & FAULT FINDING  
Dear Customer,  
If the unit appears to have developed a fault, first establish that it is a genuine internal fault and not a  
case of normal operation such as overheat. Carry out the following checks to eliminate any external  
causes. If no obvious problem can be found and replacement of the modelling lamp, flash tube or fuse  
does not effect a cure then it is likely that an internal fault has developed. Always return the unit to an  
authorised service centre if a fault is suspected after these checks. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES  
SHOULD YOU ATTEMPT ANY REPAIR yourself.  
Thank you for choosing the Bowens QUADX 3000 Generator.  
Accurate, powerful and simple to use, the QUADX has been designed by working closely with  
photographers to develop a system that meets the standards demanded in professional  
photographic studios.  
All ‘S-Type’ accessories from the Bowens range can be used with the QUADX head. For  
details of all related products, please contact your local distributor, a list of which can be found  
Flash/Misfire Warning  
In order to obtain the full benefit from your purchase, please take a few moments to familiarise  
yourself with this user manual.  
Following a flash, the unit will temporarily display READY on the red numeric displays for 5 seconds.  
This serves as a convenient method of showing correct pack operation when two or more packs are  
running flashing together. If the unit receives a trigger signal from any of the valid sources (TEST, IR  
REMOTE, IR TRIGGER, SYNC) but fails to flash for any reason then the red numeric will display  
“headfail”. Press – to clear the message. Increase the power setting to maximum and use the TEST  
button to try and flash again. If the problem continues to happen on more than the odd occasion,  
particularly at lower power settings, then it is likely that the flash head tube is wearing out. Before  
replacing the tube, check that the trigger wire is correctly connected and is not shorted to or in close  
proximity to the metal reflector. If the unit fails to flash at all then check the flash tube for signs of  
damage or overheating.  
Thank you.  
Bowens International Ltd.  
Safety Notes  
If the unit fails to flash and the display warning is not given then the Sync. lead and/or camera should  
be suspected. If possible check these with another flash system. Check the polarity of the Sync. from  
the camera and use an adapter to reverse it if necessary. The QuadX 3000 supplies a SYNC. voltage  
of +5V with respect to the chassis Ground.  
DO NOT:  
• Use in an environment where moisture or flammable vapor might come in contact with the unit.  
• Insert or remove flash heads without first switching off.  
• Restrict air vents while in use.  
OVERHEAT Warning  
• Use a unit with damaged housing, moldings, flash tube or modelling lamp.  
If the unit is dropped or damaged in any way, always have it checked out before using.  
• Operate the unit without a safe grounded (earthed) AC supply.  
The unit is fitted with overheat protection that inhibits charging until the unit has cooled sufficiently. The  
display flashes the READY LED and displays a warning message on the LCD while the overheat  
condition exists. Overheat will normally only occur if the unit is flashed repeatedly at a fast repetition  
rate. Slowing down the repetition rate will normally help keep the unit out of overheat. Dimming the  
modelling lamp or turning it off may also help.  
NOTE: The controls are inhibited during overheat to prevent inadvertent changes being made. The  
overheat condition remains until the pack reaches a target lower temperature or is turned off and then  
on after the pack has cooled by a few degrees.  
DO:  
• Switch power off and disconnect from the supply before changing modelling bulb or flash tube.  
• Excercise care when handling equipment that has been in use. The reflector and front end of  
the flash head can become Very Hot.  
• Observe the mains supply requirements.  
The Control Panel Does Not Light  
• Avoid placing cables where they can be tripped over. Protect from heavy, sharp or hot objects,  
which may cause damage and replace damaged cables immediately.  
• Due to the high voltage / high energy used in QUADX Units, all servicing must be carried out  
by an authorised Service Centre.  
If the control panel does not light when the unit is switched on then first check that the AC power supply  
to the unit is OK and that the thermal resets buttons on the rear are set. Under exceptional conditions  
of use the internal fuse may blow. This is normal and is designed to protect the unit. Report the  
problem to your local service agent. Do not attempt to locate and replace the internal fuse.  
• Remove the power cord by gripping the plug. NEVER pull the cord.  
• Ensure that any extension cord used has a suitable current rating to prevent overheating and  
never use coiled extension cords.  
The Control Panel Lights but Does Not come To 'READY'  
If this happens then first confirm that the AC power supply is adequate and within the prescribed limits.  
Try switching the unit off, wait a minute, and then switch on again.  
• ALWAYS remove the flash head covers before using.

QUADX Flash Head  
Function Overview  
QUADX  
The fan-cooled QUADX flash head is capable of  
handling up to 3000Ws and is fitted with 650W  
modelling lamp.  
Your QUADX 3000 is a versatile and powerful photographic generator.  
Flash Power  
The pack has four head sockets which can deliver a total power of 3000Ws in various ways. At all  
times, the pack will indicate the available power at any socket. This is scaled such that 3000Ws is  
represented as 10 on the display. Lower power levels are proportional and adjustable in steps of 0.1  
stops. e.g. A value of 9.0 represents half the power, 1500Ws.  
The user changeable flash tube features a  
three-electrode design to deliver the fastest  
possible flash duration. A UV-balanced Pyrex  
dome ensures colour integrity and security.  
When combined with the full line of Bowens S-  
type reflectors and accessories this system will  
give you unmatched lighting versatility and  
unlimited creative capabilities.  
The pack is divided into two channels, A & B. These channels are further split across two sockets each,  
A1/A2 & B1/B2. The energy available from each socket is displayed. Switching off a socket will unit to  
dump the energy in order to maintain the remaining channel/socket. There is no need to manually  
accomodate these changes.  
To prolong the life of the flash head Bowens  
generators incorporate soft-start circuitry which  
dim the lamps up and down rather than abruptly  
powering them on and off.  
With Channel A in use only, the full pack power is available to share between sockets A1 and A2.  
Therefore a single head in A1 can discharge the full 3000Ws.  
With a head switched off in either of the Channel B sockets B1/B2, the pack automatically becomes  
asymmetric. In this mode, a maximum of 2000Ws is available across channel A and a maximum of  
1000Ws across channel B.  
BW7650  
As you become familiar with operating the pack, you will notice short pauses in the unit returning to  
ready during power adjustments. This is because the unit always adjusts the power level to match the  
displayed value for each socket. Turning a socket off, for example, requires the energy to be dumped,  
hence the delay. A further reason is that for any given power level, the unit will automatically optimise  
the internal capacitor useage to minimise the flash duration.  
RingLite  
This classic lighting accessory gives a unique full-  
frontal lighting effect that makes it popular among  
fashion photographers.  
Ringflash Diffuser  
For a softer lighting effect, this opal diffuser can  
be used with the Ringflash. This will soften the  
shadows and is perfect for most direct lighting  
applications.  
Modelling Power  
Modelling On/Off is controlled by a single button. Modelling control to each head can be set to On/Off  
or Intermittent. (Intermittent extinguishes the lamps when the unit is not ready)  
The camera mounts to the center of an opening  
that is surrounded by two semicircular 1500Ws  
flash tubes to acheive amazing results. To ensure  
short, freeze-action flash duration, the flash tubes  
have three, rather than two, electrodes and each  
has a seperate cable. The Ringflash can be used  
with any QUAD generator and its integral  
mounting bracket adjusts for use with virtually all  
medium format, and 35mm camera.  
BW2311  
There are three modelling modes, Full, Proportional and automatic 100%.  
The Full and Automatic 100% modes also provide a bias control allowing all lamps to be controlled in  
ratio.  
Main Selection Controls  
The commonly required adjustments are grouped under the “Main” selection menu.

The QUADX pack has two flash counters. The total flash counter, which can not be modified by the  
user and the job counter. Both counters increment on every attempted flash.  
The job counter may be used to record the number of flashes over a particular period by resetting its  
value to zero before a session and then reading the value after the session.  
Triggering System  
The unit may be triggered from the following sources.  
To view the counter select:  
A Sync. plug in either of the 34” jack-type sockets will trigger the pack if the ‘READY’ LED is  
lit. The sync. supply is nominally +5V for low voltage camera operation. These sockets may  
also be used with a Radio Trigger, Such as the Bowens Pulsar, or I.R triggers to provide a  
syncronous trigger.

Remote Photo Cell. When switched on, the unit will trigger in response to an external flash  
of light, if the ‘READY’ LED is lit. Ensure that the sloping panel is exposed clearly to the  
triggering light source.  
4.  
I.R Remote Control Test. With the I.R receiver switch, the unit can be triggered by the open  
flash test button on the I.R Handset.  
Adjust the FLASH and MODELLING controls to provide the desired settings and select any options  
required. Refer to the section on operation of the controls if required. Test flash the unit by pressing  
the ‘TEST’ button.  
Excess energy is automatically dumped when the flash power setting is reduced. Both increasing and  
decreasing the power setting generates heat inside the unit. Therefore avoid repetetive Up and Down  
power changes.  
Refer to page 12 if you intend to make continuous use of the fast recycling feature of the unit.  
NOTE: If the unit is left unused for six months or predominantly used at low power settings it is  
recommended that the power be increased to maximum and the unit left switched on occasionally for  
at least 30 minutes to help preserve the life of the capacitors.

Trigger Skip  
The Trigger Skip function is solely for use with two or more packs and is designed to allow the  
photographer to trigger packs alternately and therefore more rapidly. To do this, the pack must first be  
assigned a pach ID number, which must be less than or equal to the number of packs in use. Next, the  
number of packs must be set to equal the number of packs to be used. Each pack must be connected  
to the same trigger source. As a trigger signal occurs the pack will begin counting the number of  
triggers. If this is equal to the pack ID, then the pack will trigger.

Switch the pack on. The unit will show one red display. If -- is shown, press the socket A1  
On/Off button to turn the socket on.  
The pack will now change to a level proportional to the setting shown on the left most red  
numeric display.  
Use the channel A adjustment buttons to vary the power level from socket A1. Adjust the unit  
to show 10 on the display. Use the open flash button to discharge the 3000Ws.  
e.g. Consider three packs set up with Pack ID 1, Pack ID 2 and Pack ID 3.  
Having switched on the Trigger Skip function, the first trigger will cause pack 1 to fire, the second trigger  
will cause pack 2 to fire, the third trigger will cause pack three to fire. The fourth trigger will cause pack  
1 to fire and so on...  
Switch the pack off. Plug the head into socket B2. This time the rightmost numeric display  
will illuminate. Adjust the channel power up to its maximum, noting that it will stop at 8.4.  
This is because the pack becomes asymmetric with any head switched on in channel B.  
You are now ready to begin using the pack.
