Introduction

Thank you for choosing the PowerSync Radio Slave System, designed

using the latest technology to produce a device that is simple to

operate, while providing photographers with the highest quality radio

slave system at an affordable price. The PowerSync System is

designed strictly for ash units. It cannot be used with hot lights or

continuous light sources. The PowerSync System allows the

photographer to trigger the light source wirelessly from the camera

(ts most cameras). It can also be used to trigger a remote camera

that has an electronic shutter release connection. Remote shutter

triggering requires a compatible motor drive cable (see Accessories).

The PowerSync Radio Slave System is available in two versions. The

AC 100-240 volt version must be plugged into a wall socket. The DC

version works with two standard AA batteries. The DC Receiver will

also accept an AC adapter (DC 7V-9V/300mA). The Transmitter can be

used for either model and operates on one 3V CR2450 battery. You

must have both a Transmitter and either model of Receiver for the

system to work. Your Transmitter can trigger as many Receivers as

you want. As long as all Receivers are within range, and are set to the

same frequency as the Transmitter, your Transmitter can trigger as

many lights as your setup requires.

In order to fully understand your new PowerSync Radio Slave System,

please take a moment to read through this user guide.

Backward Compatibility

The PowerSync 16-80 is backward compatible with the PowerSync 16

Radio Slave System.

PowerSync 16 Transmitter to PowerSync 16-80 as Receiver:

The PowerSync 16 transmitter can be used to trigger the PowerSync

16-80. Set your PowerSync 16-80 to Receiver (Rx) or

Transmitter/Receiver (Tx/Rx) mode using the M button to accept a

signal from the PowerSync 16 transmitter. Ensure the channel on both

devices is identical. See chart below.

PowerSync 16-80 Transmitter to PowerSync 16 as Receiver:

The PowerSync 16-80 can be used to trigger the PowerSync 16

receiver. Set your PowerSync 16-80 to Transmitter (Tx) or

Transmitter/Receiver (Tx/Rx) mode using the M button to send a signal.

Ensure the channel on both devices is identical. See chart below.

For channel selection, the PowerSync 16 system relies on manual

channel selector switches. Despite the PowerSync 16-80’s digital

interface, channels on the two devices can be synchronized using the

chart below as a guide

Note: When using the PowerSync 16 – only 16 channels are available.

The PowerSync 16-80’s backward compatibility with the PowerSync 16

system will only work if No Group is selected on the PowerSync 16-80.
