INON's Z240/3 with S&S Dual Sync Cord

Hi,

I'm waiting for my new equipment but in meantime I like know if somebody use this solution and if really work well in order to have full i-TTL.

Configuration:

Nikon D300 in Subal ND30 with HeinrichsWeikamp External Converter, Sea & Sea Dual Sync Cord and two INON's Z-240 Type 3.

Thanks in advance for your useful information, like always.

Best regards,

Go to the HeinrichsWeikamp website, it will tell you.

I have already put that question to HeinrichsWeikamp:

Question - It's possible connect the external converter to the two Inon's with one Dual Sync Cord and still working very well?

Answer from HeinrichsWeikamp - Two identical strobes is the best combination you can choose.

And to INON also:

Answer from Inon - As you can see in our English instruction manual, we do not guarantee

proper functioning of Z-240 when using Sea&Sea Dual Sync Cord or any other cord

besides "Sea&Sea Sync Cord N". In some case, a dual cord divides electrical signal

from a camera causing insufficient electrical signal to trigger external strobe.

Now you can understand as I put the question to the forum for try find an answer from somebody with experience in use of the same configuration.

I have a D200/Subal/S&S TTL converter with 2 independent single S&S cables. All works fine.

The S&S TTL converter was a little big at first, butwe like the external control and it is now not as obtrusive as at first.

Forgot to add I use 2 Z 240 strobes.

The situation is different.

The Sea & Sea Converter use two connectors each one for a single sync cord, but the HeinrichsWeikamp are only one connector. If you use two strobes the solutions are - Dual sync cord for both strobes or one sync cord to one strobe and slave strobe connection by optical cable.

My "dilema" is about the Sea & Sea Dual Sync Cord - This work or not?

I have used 2 Z240s connected in parallel to a single Heinrichs TTL board, and it worked quite well.

So I would assume that using a dual sync cord would work just as well, as the impedance load seen by the Heinrichs TTL board should be the same.

Hi,

I have already tested this situation - D300 in Subal housing with 2x Inon Z240 Type 3, Sea & Sea Dual Sync Cord/N and HeinrichsWeikamp external converter - and work great, without any problem of the Dual Sync Cord use.

The Inon Z240 setting will be:

- Main Mode Switch - S-TTL or Low

- EV Control Switch - As you wish

- Advanced Cancel Circuit Switch - Press and lock

In the Subal housing, the circuit board must be in 5 pin mode.
