Is it possible to turn a Flashpoint monolight 1220 to a HSS (High speed synch) with a wireless flash trigger?

The Flashpoint monolight needs to have that feature built into it.
HSS is achieved by the flash pulsing so rapidly that the light emitted is essentially a brief continuous light source. You can't make it worki me that unless it's engineered to do that in the first place.
