alec_myers Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 <p>Does anyone have a list of the error codes that show up on the back of Elinchrom flash units - specifically the DX and BX series? I think E04 is "overheat" - what about E01?</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
