Using the Fiber Optic
Cable
with the Nano Flash
Thank you for purchasing a Fantasea Line Nano Slave Flash. We
hope the following instructions will assist you in assembling a
Fiber Optic Cable to work with your Nano Flash and that you will
have many excellent underwater images using the Fantasea Line
Nano Flash.
The Nano Flash is capable of synchronizing with the camera's internal flash
without a fiber optic cable in most diving conditions. It has a slave sensor that
triggers the Nano Flash to fire along with the camera's internal flash, as long
as the Nano Flash and the camera are positioned on the same axis.
The fiber optic cable, however, ensures the best synchronization between the
camera's internal flash and the Nano Flash in all angles and in various diving
conditions.
Step 1 - Preparing the Fiber Optic Cable
The fiber optic cable consists of two ends: One is attached to a white plastic
fitting (flat white plastic at the end of the cable with Allen screw inside), and
the other is loose or attached to an additional plastic component. If your fiber
optic cable consists of plastic fittings on both ends (image #1), please follow
this first step. However, if your fiber optic cable features a plastic fitting only
on one end (image #2), please continue to Step 2.

Tightening the screw too much might damage the fiber optic cable. c) Install the black and clear plastic diffuser cover on the Nano Flash Housing, if it isn't already assembled. d) Carefully but firmly insert the black adaptor inside the lower right grommet (the one with the wider hole) of the black diffuser cover, so that the adaptor's screw doesn't get in its way.

Please note that it’s mostly recommended to totally block out the internal flash of the camera when using the fiber optic cable (see Step 3b), and therefore removing the built-in flash diffuser will have no affect on lighting.
