D200 Hugyfot with DS-125 and SS-200?

1 posts
  1. I have recently purchased a Hugyfot D200 to upgrade my Aquatica S2 system. My photography is deep wreck based and when I started with the S2 I bought 2 x SS200s from here which have served me well. Unfortunately one of them flooded so I bought a DS-125 to replace it (couldn't afford a DS200)

     

    Last night I put connected the strobes (Nik 5 pin) to the housing and put the flash plate into my S2 to see if everything worked okay. The DS-125 would fire okay but the SS-200 wouldn't. I then tried swapping the ttl board with the manual board so that I can fire them non-TTL (which is what I normally do for deep wreck work anyway) and the SS-200 still would not fire. I am going to go through the process of swapping leads etc to try and isolate the fault (if there is one). But before I do, is there any reason why the SS-200 should not fire when using the described setup?

     

    I also presume that I will be able to fire the strobes as non-TTL with the SS200 or am I going to have to sell that and get another DS-125? My D-200 arrives tomorrow so I can't experiment with that at the moment which is why I am using the S2 to trigger the strobes.
