Ikelite Housing Conversion Circuitry; Attaching A Sync Cord To The Housing - Ikelite 6171.07 Instruction Manual

Ikelite Housing Conversion Circuitry

This housing has Ikelite designed and patented Conversion Circuitry
built into the housing back. The Conversion Circuitry provides real TTL
flash exposure when used with Ikelite DS series Substrobes.
Once a DS-series substrobe is attached to the camera housing, the
conversion circuitry is automatically powered after the strobe is turned
on. Once attached, turn the strobe on first before turning on the camera.

Attaching a Sync Cord to the Housing

The Housing Bulkhead is designed to accept only an Ikelite 5-pin TTL
Sync Cord.
1. Lightly lubricate the Sync Cord O-ring. Use ONLY Ikelite lubricant
(supplied with housing).
2. Remove Bulkhead Cap from Housing Bulkhead.
3. Line up the Sync Cord Pins with the corresponding Bulkhead
Receptacles. Gently insert Sync Cord into Bulkhead. DO NOT force this
installation. If the Sync Cord does not seat properly inside the Bulkhead,
then the Pins and
Receptacles are
improperly aligned (repeat
Step 3).
4. Tighten the Knurled Nut
snugly using your Index
finer and thumb. DO NOT
use pliers or other tools to
tighten the Knurled Nut.
- Always remove the Sync
Cord from your Housing
when not in use and
replace the Bulkhead
Cap.
