Hi,

I have 2 Einsteins, controlled with Cyber commander.
Everything works fine except metering.

Anywhere near the Einsteins (if the dome sees the light) it meters f>1, if I hide the dome or walk away from light to a dark area, meter goes to somewhere btw f/30 to f/96.

Funny part it the more light it sees the wider aperture it reads.

I tried reopening Lights from studio, no change, my meter seems to work upside down, thus reading f>1 when there is proper lighting.

Any suggestions?

No worries, I solved it.

Apparently, Flash Calibration was set to +14f stops, pushing the meter to clip when there is light. Reseting it solved the issue.

Thanks anyway
