Input Sync Offset

To access the Input Sync Offset screen you must first turn ‘on’ the extended menu. The 
Input Sync Offset function allows adjustment of the interval between the remote being 
triggered and its outputs (sync output connector or radio sync command transmission) 
being fired. In this mode the remote and camera are triggered from an external manual 
release.

The ‘Timebase’ defines the range over which the ‘Input Sync Offset’ will operate. There are 
three time ranges available 0-999 seconds, 0-999 milliseconds, and 0-990 microseconds. 
This allows the delay value to have a wide range while permitting rapid adjustment.

When the remote is operating in Tx mode the value may be set positive or negative within 
the range selected in the ‘Timebase’ menu. Positive values cause the remote’s local sync 
output to trigger in advance of the radio sync command being translitted. A negative value 
causes the remote’s local sync output to be triggered after the transmission radio sync 
command. Selecting a value other than zero enables this function. When the remote is 
operating in the Rx mode the input sync delay function adds the delay between the sync 
command being received and the sync output being triggered. In this mode only positive 
values may be entered.

To set the input sync offset time press the             key until the ‘Input Sync Offset’ page is 
displayed then use the                      keys to select the offset range. Use the                       keys to 
adjust the selected timebase range, and the                      keys to select  the required timebase.

NOTE: To use the Input Sync Offset function 
a ‘trigger switch / release’ with a 3.5mm jack 
connection, and a camera compatible motor-
drive cable with a 3.5mm jack connection is 
required.
