Shooting the Tetra 5060
ROC Defined
ROC is a revolutionary new strobe controller that is built into the Tetra 5060 housing.
ROC enables the photographer to shoot in Digital TTL and Manual
exposure modes. Both modes are accessed and strobe power levels controlled through
the LED panel located on the back of the Tetra 5060 (Refer fig 23).
Programming ROC
ROC only functions successfully by programming the type of strobe(s) being used.
Program ROC prior to diving. Once ROC is programmed it will never have to be re-
programmed unless a different model strobe is attached. ROC will retain its programming
even when the ROC battery is changed or removed.
ROC’s default strobe profile is for Sea & Sea YS-90DX/90Duo/90 Auto/60/50. If you are
using different strobe(s) use the following procedure to change the ROC strobe profile.
If you use different type or brands of strobes with the Tetra 5060, only one type may be
programmed. When shooting in manual mode the un-programmed strobe’s light output
may not correspond exactly with the f/stop scale of the ROC LED panel.
1. “Wake-up” ROC by pressing the ROC button (Fig. 23).
2. Press and hold the ROC Power button until the power level LED begins to blink.
3. Press the +/- buttons to position the power level LED in the appropriate location. Refer
(Fig. 24) to determine which location is for which type of strobe.
4. When the power level LED is positioned in the appropriate location, press the ROC
button to activate the strobe profile. ROC will save this profile and then return you to
whatever power level the strobe was in previously.
During the programming process, if programming is idle for 60 seconds ROC will record
the strobe profile of the current LED position and enter stand-by mode.
ROC Stand-by and Time Out schedule
ROC is fully active when it shows the strobe power level or the Status LED is illuminated
green (green indicates TTL mode).
After 60 seconds of inactivity ROC enters stand-by mode. ROC is still active but turns
off the LEDs to conserve battery power. ROC will return to the active mode by pressing
any ROC button or the shutter release.
