Using the OPL-M40

Opus OPL-SA02 light socket (see Available Accessories). 

There are several ways to trigger the Opus OPL-M40 monolight

Sync Socket:

The sync socket is a standard 

”  jack and is used for connecting the OPL-M40 to a camera 

with the sync cord. Please refer to your camera’s instruction manual for sync cord operation. 

Photocell:

The OPL-M40  has a built-in photocell, enabling the unit to be triggered by another flash 
source. 

Flash Test Fire Button:

The flash test fire button manually triggers the flash without using a camera. This is useful for 
testing the flash and checking exposures.
