Pclix LT Digital Camera Model Programming Chart
Once you know the model code for your specific camera you can proceed. The Pclix LT
has been designed so that you can enter the programming mode the same way for all the
user programmable options. This makes learning the various functions of the device easier to
grasp. Later in this manual we will go into more detail regarding the user preferences.
However for now, all we need to do is set the camera model. Start by making sure that the
Pclix LT POWER switch is in the OFF position. Then set the LEFT grey dial to 7, the LEFT dial
would always be 7 when setting the camera model. Now set the RIGHT dial to the second
number of the Model Code listed above for your camera. Once both dials are at the correct
number position, hold down the red FIRE button while sliding the POWER switch to the ON
position. The red LEFT LED will flash 3 times to indicate you are entering the programming
mode. Once the RED LED has completed it's three flashes release the red FIRE button, the
GREEN LED will then flash 4 time to indicate you have successfully defined the camera model.
NOTE: The Pclix LT has error checking built into the camera model programming mode. If you
try to program an invalid number the RED LED will light and stay lit. At this point you must
turn OFF the Pclix LT and start over, ensuring you have correctly set the dials to a valid model
number. The last step is to exit the programming mode by simply turning OFF the Pclix LT.
You have now successfully set the Pclix LT to control the camera of your choice. In a nutshell,
all user programming is entered and exited this same way.
Now lets make sure the Pclix LT can trigger your camera. The first thing you should do
is set both the LEFT and RIGHT dial to zero. Now follow these next few steps. Turn ON your
camera, remove the lens cap, put it into manual focus and set your camera to receive a
remote trigger. If you are using a contact switch closure make sure the cable is connected
between the Pclix LT and your camera. Next turn ON the Pclix LT. There will be 3 GREEN
flashes to indicate you have started it up correctly. If you are controlling your camera using
infrared light, then point the Pclix LT towards the infrared receiver on the front of your
camera. Normally the infrared receiver is behind a small plastic red window above and to one
side of the lens. Now push the red FIRE button on the Pclix LT. Your camera should take an
image. You can now proceed to the next chapter "Basic Operation". If your camera did not
respond, then re-read this section of the manual beginning with at "Setting Your Camera
Model" to make sure you did not miss a step.
