Trigger Box Quick Start Guide
3
Configuration A
The External Camera Trigger Out, Sync In, and all other triggers are
going through the Trigger Box.
Configuration B
The External Camera Trigger Out and Sync In are directly connected to
the camera.
The other trigger signals are going through the Trigger Box.
The External Camera Trigger Out signal wires to the BLOOP connector
are cut on the ribbon cable, so the Camera Trigger Out signal cannot
reach the Trigger Box in this configuration.
Configuration C
The External Camera Trigger Out and Sync In are directly connected to
the camera.
The Bloop light also has a direct connection. The Bloop light plug itself
(black in the photograph) is wired for two inputs:
• If you plug the Bloop light into the BLOOP connector on the
ribbon cable, you can trigger it with the Trigger 1 Output
signal.
• If you plug the Bloop light into the SYNC connector on the
ribbon cable, you can trigger it with either the Trigger 1 Out or
Camera Trigger Out signal, and thus use it to test the External
Camera Trigger Out.
The External Camera Trigger Out and Trigger 1 Output (Bloop) signal
wires to the TRIGGER connector are cut on the ribbon cable, so neither of
these signals can reach the Trigger Box in this configuration.
Note
In all cable configurations, the Sync signal that can be produced by
the internal simulated camera in the Trigger Box can reach the RT-14
unit and Flair. When you are shooting make sure the Trigger Box is
not generating a test Sync signal which will interfere with the real
Sync signal coming from the camera. That is, make sure the INT
CAM CONTROL ON/OFF and the CAM TEST ON/OFF switches on
the Trigger Box are Off. See Sync and camera controls on page 12.
