Synchronization

Synchronization between compact flash unit and camera can

be optionally achieved via sync cord, the built-in slave, or a

built-in radio receiver.

Synchronization via cord

The compact flash unit is connected to the camera via sync

cord by connecting the 6.3 mm jack plug to the camera’s sync

socket.
The synchronization process uses the latest semiconductor tech

-

nology and warrants reliable triggering of the flash unit even

when older camera models with mechanical contacts are used.

The lower voltage of the sync plug ensures safe and reliable

operation, also with the use of modern digital cameras.
