ATTACHING CABLE TO HOT SHOE

The back cover of the housing contains the push button controls as well as the 5 pin sync port
[bulkhead port]. You need to attach the Hot Shoe with cable [attached to housing] to the hot shoe
insert of the flash.
Slide the hot shoe insert all the way onto the hot shoe of the flash then tighten the Hot Shoe
Screw located just above the Hot Shoe of the flash. This secures the attachment.

ATTACHING THE SYNC CORD

The sync cord is a 5 pin Nikonos sync cord. The sync cord connects the flash to the camera
housing. Both ends of the cord are identical so either side can be inserted into the flash and
camera housings.
When you insert the cord into the port you must exercise caution—the pins inside the cord are
delicate and must not be damaged.
1. Unscrew the port cover cap and store in a safe place. Gently and accurately attach
the sync cord to the port of the flash housing.
2. While securing the position of the sync connector, screw it into the housing using
the locking screw of the sync cord.
On the side of the housing port notice a simple alignment indicator [dot].
The 5 pin cord contains a small channel [groove] between 2 of the female

pins of the cord.
You must insert the cord into the port so the groove is aligned with the
