black base of the plug. (Note: Touching the silver collar will prevent the plug from locking.)

Setting a Time Amount
1. Press the Mode Button to select one of the three timing modes (self-timer, interval, or long
exposure).
2. Press the Jog Dial to select the time unit you wish to set. Each time you press the dial, the time
units will blink in the following order: Seconds → Minutes → Hours, in a continuous loop. When
the time unit you wish to set is blinking, turn the Jog Dial to
the amount you want.
3. After setting a time unit, press the Jog Dial once to register it. Time amounts can be set in
single digit increments, up to: Seconds: 59 Minutes: 59 Hours: 99
4. Repeat Step 3 for any additional time units you wish to set. Once a time unit has been
registered it will no longer blink.
Self-timer Mode
1. Use the Jog Dial to set the desired delay time.
2. Press the Start/Stop button to start the self-timer.
The Self-timer icon will start
blinking and the time display will count down. The shutter will release when the timer reaches
zero (0). To pause the self-timer before the shutter releases, press the Start/Stop button. Press it
again to resume.
• Do not use the TC-80N3 in combination with your camera's self-timer. Doing so may interfere
with the TC80N3's timer function.
• You can combine the self-timer with the Long Exposure Mode for Bulb exposures. Setting your
camera to Bulb will result in a Bulb exposure only if you have set the the TC80N3 to Long
Exposure Mode.
• If you combine the Long Exposure Mode and Interval Timer Mode, both will begin only after
the Self-timer delay has elapsed.
