Connecting a Strobe Device

Use the I/O connector's strobe trigger outputs to control the strobe flash tim-
ing. There are two strobe trigger outputs, STGOUT0 and STGOUT1, i.e., one
for each of camera 0 and camera 1.

Refer to page 31 for details.
Check the strobe device's specifications and set the appropriate "Shutter trig-
ger polarity" and "Shutter trigger width" in the Camera settings (Detail) Menu.
The Camera settings (Detail) window is displayed at startup and can be dis-
played at other times by selecting Camera settings from the System Menu.
