If  camera  sync  cord  has

reversible  connections, t ry  reve r s i n g
them. If using a hotshoe adaptor, make
sure the cord comes out the back end of
the camera,not the front. Try unplugging
sync cord from camera and momentarily
short the sync cord contacts together
with a metal object (this should fire the
system) if so, check camera and hotshoe,
if not,either the sync cord or the trans-
mitter have a defect.

Problem:Receiver won't work with another
brand of flash.

Check: Make sure the flash unit's sync
voltage is less than 50 volts.See Caution
on Page 1.

Problem:White Lightning modeling lights don't
blink when I send data.

Check: Modeling lamps will not blink if
they are in Off Mode.

Problem:Receiver LED blinks when I send
data,but flash unit doesn't respond.

C h e c k :

Is  flash  unit  connected  to

Receiver? If so, try another connecting
cord,or try another flash unit.
