A Receiver FW8R mounted to Uni-Mod on a camera shoe will have no
connection to the motor drive. If you desire remote motor drive triggering,
connect a separate motor drive cord (Appendix
C) between MD out and the camera motor
drive.
You may also mount the FW12 or FW11 to a
“dead” shoe for convenience, in which case
sync-in (for FW9T units) or sync-out (for FW8R
units) connections will be necessary.
