Switching between TTL and Manual
-
The knurled ring on the iTTL Adapter's black delrin pod has a
white dot (see illustration on front page).
-
The knurled ring can be rotated clockwise or counter-clockwise to
align the knurled ring's white dot with the white dot on the label
next to TTL or Manual.
-
The DS Substrobe must be set to TTL mode for the iTTL adapter
to provide TTL operation.
Housing Bulkhead Compatibility
Over the years various housing manufacturers have introduced a variety
of "Nikonos-style" bulkheads with variations on the original contact
design. The plug end on this iTTL Adapter has been designed to
prevent damage by some European housings with rigid contacts in place
of the traditional spring-loaded style.
This design may exhibit intermittency with some more traditional
Nikonos-style bulkheads. Two gold plated pins have been provided to
eliminate this intermittency. These pins should only be used in
conjunction with bulkheads featuring two spring-loaded contacts.
To see if your housing has spring-loaded contacts, use an open-ended
paper clip to gently push down on the contacts shown in diagram 2,
page 6. Very little pressure is needed to check the contacts. If the
contacts ARE spring-loaded, proceed to "Troubleshooting/Inserting Pins"
on page 7 for inserting the included gold plated pins.
These pins are specifically recommended for use with the Nikonos-style
bulkhead featured on Nauticam housings.
If your housing does NOT feature spring-loaded contacts, DO NOT
insert the included pins into your plug end. Doing so may cause
damage to your plug and/or bulkhead.
