Ikelite Housing Conversion Circuitry
This small compact housing has Ikelite designed and patented
Conversion Circuitry built right in. The Conversion Circuitry provides real
TTL flash exposure when used with Ikelite DS series strobes. The
Circuitry is automatically activated once a DS series strobe is attached
to the housing and turned on. Once attached, turn the strobe on first
before turning on the camera.
Non-Ikelite strobes can be used in manual settings only. The circuitry will
be inactive and provide only manual flash.
Attaching a Sync Cord to the Housing -
The Housing Bulkhead is designed to accept sync cords with Ikelite 5
pin connector fittings.
1. Lightly lubricate the Sync Cord O-ring. Use ONLY Ikelite lubricant
(supplied with housing).
2. Remove Bulkhead Cap from Housing Bulkhead.
