Attaching A Sync Connector - Ikelite DS160 Manual

Attaching a Sync Connector

»
A bulkhead cap or waterproof connector must be attached
to the strobe for waterproof operation. Never submerge the
strobe without either a bulkhead cap or compatible waterproof
connector attached.
1. Remove the bulkhead cap.
2. Lightly lubricate the connector o-ring. We recommend using only
Ikelite silicone lubricant to eliminate the possibility of swelling due to
incompatible compounds.
3. Line up the pins and receptacles and insert the sync cord plug into
the bulkhead. The plug should slide easily into the bulkhead. If you
feel resistence, do not force it. Remove the plug and check
alignment.

4. Rotate the knurled retaining ring until snug on the housing
bulkhead. Do not use pliers or tools to tighten the retaining ring.
