Ikelite Housing Conversion Circuitry - Ikelite 6146.02 Instruction Manual

Ikelite Housing Conversion Circuitry

This small compact housing has Ikelite designed and patented
Conversion Circuitry built right in. The Conversion Circuitry provides real
Canon eTTL flash exposure when used with Ikelite DS series strobes.
Once a DS series strobe is attached to the External Strobe Connector,
the conversion circuitry is automatically powered after the strobe is
turned on. Once attached, turn the strobe on first before turning on the
camera. The circuitry cannot be powered up or used by non-Ikelite
strobes.
Attaching a Sync Cord to the Housing -
The Housing Bulkhead Connector is designed to accept sync cords with
Ikelite ICS-5 connector fittings.
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 finger 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.
