If you are not interested in the split grade functions you can use the LED with your existing timer. The LED will be controlled by a B&W controller. these must be connected between the timer and the LED light source. It has tow knob controlling the grade and the luminosity in 0.1 step. doing so...

I can tell my experience using the led unit from Heiland. I think that the splitgrade is particularly useful in the dodging and burning mode, here is where you can choose different grades and different exposure times. There’s a particular menu page for these task, it’s very easy to use. With...

finally I bought the split grade! It’s a marvelous piece of tech, it has shorten my workflow a lot!

Okay, I understand now. That’s not my situation… maybe in the future, if I switch to SplitGrade. Right now I’m using the RH Analyzer Pro as a timer, and the calibration is all done manually — and it’s a real pain.

Sorry, I’m not sure I’m following. You have a Heiland LED light source, right? How do you control it? Do you use an Analyzer Pro? (That’s my setup.) What do you mean by ‘opening the calibration system’? I’d be very interested in sharing calibration info with other users of the same system...

Thanks! ok, I’ll get it a look to understand what can do. Thanks again for your answer

I assume that the analyzer gives me a starting point and then I can choose the rest.. these is how I intend it now and how I use it with the alogen bulb. I hope that it will be the same after the led comes out. But I should start from a calibration for sure. I hope someone has the same gear and...

Hi! Thanks for your answer I bought the led adapter and the controller.. I didn’t take into account getting the comfort module because I just have the analyzer and I thought could be a good combo.. guess I’ll find out very soon.. I’ve paid already but Heiland didn’t send it yet. I’m starting...

Hi I've been waiting for my Heiland LED source to arrive for over a month, in the meantime I'm starting collecting some info on how to calibrate the new piece of gear. As I know the calibration on the Analyzer should be done without filtration and then the print with the filter on. With the...

Dear Bill I'm impressed, that's awfully kind of you! thank you for your time, patience and for your tips. I need to dig in to the world of Delta x. I started from a very short developing time because I have some serious problems nailing the high (in grade 2) contrast of my condenser enlarger. I...

I just got it.. I’m at the beginning chapters. But software apart, is it correct what I did? Reading again the graph, ISO value should be 160 If I start from -5.

Ok, I did it.. sort of.. I exposed a 35 mm film (hp5) rated at 400 iso against a white wall north faced in an even lighted day. Exposure goes from -5 to +5, ten stops in 1/3 increments. i processed the film in xtol 1+1 at 7 minutes against the 12 suggested in the xtol datasheet for a CI of 0,51...

That’s amazing! Thank you Bill

It helps indeed! Thanks

Thank you so much! cheers
