Hensel Turntable 360°
QUICK START GUIDE
First, connect the included adapter with the turntable
(POWER), then connect the power cord to the socket
and switch the main switch (ON/OFF) until the green
LED (ON) is lit.
Now, connect the release cable to the camera jack
(CAMERA) on the turntable and to the remote release jack
of your camera. Cables are available for most current DSLR
and EVIL cameras. When using flashes, synchronize these
directly with your camera, as you normally would, via cable or remote transmitter.
Connecting with the turntable:
The Hensel Turntable 360° comes with a build-in WLAN module. In order to connect
to it, activate the WLAN of the control device (computer, laptop, tablet, smartphone)
and follow these steps:
Attention: Depending on the operating system /
language version used, the display names in the
app user interface may differ from this manual!
Dial into the integrated WLAN module:
1. Open the WLAN settings of the device used
for control.
2. Search for the network name ESP_XXXXXX
(X stands for a series of different letters and
signs - e.g. ESP_F9E338).
3. Click on the found network name and
confirm dial in as required.
4. Dial-in can take several seconds and is
confirmed by most devices with “connected”.

INITIAL OPERATION
Opening the Operational Environment:
Open the web browser of the device used for control (we recommend using Firefox, other
browsers are also suitable) and enter the following IP address in the address line:
192.168.4.1
Initially, it may take a few seconds until the connection is set up and all buttons are
displayed correctly. The process should be completed after max.10s, otherwise, please
use your browser’s “refresh“ function for a new connection attempt.
This procedure does not install any software on the control device. The turntable is ac-
cessed via a local network and control does not depend on the operating system or
an Internet connection.
In case the connection is not established or the buttons on the user interface do not
function, please follow the instructions starting on page 5 to set up a connection. You must
follow these steps for Apple iPhone®or Apple iPad®.
The turntable is now ready for operation.
On the following page, please find the function instructions of the user
interface.
