When using a TTL/Auto exposure camera (film or digital) in an Ikelite TTL-compatible

housing connected to the DS125 strobe by sync cord, the flash ready light in the camera

viewfinder and the DS125 ready light will both glow when the Substrobe has recycled and

is ready to fire.

If the Ikelite housing does not feature TTL compatible circuitry, then the ready light

in the camera viewfinder would not be triggered when the strobe has recycled.

When using the DS125 strobe with the optional DS Sensor or EV-Controller (without

optional sync cord), the strobe is not electronically connected to the camera. Therefore,

the ready light in the viewfinder of the camera indicates when the on-camera flash has

recycled. Reference both the camera and DS125 ready lights to make sure both flashes

have fully recycled before taking the next picture.
