Housing Conversion Circuitry; Setting The Conversion Circuitry Strobe Id Switch - Ikelite 6801.71 Instruction Manual

Housing Conversion Circuitry

This housing contains Ikelite designed Conversion Circuitry. Once
attached, turn the strobe on first before turning on the camera.
When used with Ikelite DS Substrobes the Conversion Circuitry provides
real Nikon iTTL flash exposure with over and underexposure
compensation from +1 1/3 to - 1 1/3 f-stops in 1/3 stop increments.
The Conversion Circuitry also offers Manual exposure control with 3
f-stops of underexposure control in 1/2 stop increments.
The Conversion Circuitry is powered by the Ikelite DS Substrobe when
connected to the housing with the 4103.51 single or 4103.52 dual sync
cord. When using two strobes with the dual sync cord, the primary
strobe connected to the cord without the red band, must be turned on to
power the Conversion Circuitry. Always keep both strobes connected to
your dual sync cord underwater. Do not exchange your secondary
strobe for a dust cap which may not be waterproof.

Setting the Conversion Circuitry Strobe ID Switch

On the bottom of the internal housing tray is a switch for setting the DS
Substrobe ID. Set the switch to the Model of DS Substrobe being used.
When using dual strobes of different models such as a DS51 and a
DS161, set the ID switch to DS51 or the smaller strobe.
