Sync/Multiple Flash Terminal @
Located at the side of the AS-8or AS-9is a threaded terminal which serves two purposes: it can be used to attach a sync cord to the 88-16for off-camera operation or you can attach a second electronic flaSh in series for manual multiple lighting setups. (For more detailed infor- mation about manual multiple flash , refer to pages 58 and 62 .)
Notes:
I)When the S8-16is used off-camera via a sync cord, ready-light indica- tion inside the camera's viewfinder and automatic sync speed setting are not available, and TTL auto flash operation cannot be performed.
2)When attached to an all-metallic accessory shoe, such as the one on the Nikkormat FTN camera, the S8-16 does not fire even if it is con- nected to the camera body with a sync cord. In this case, isolate the flash contact with vinyl tape or use the optional accessory sync cord, SC-ID as required.
