To prepare the port for installation, remove the port o’ring and
lightly lubricate it. The port seal is a side-to-side seal and
requires the o’ring to be lightly lubricated for easy installation.
Put a small amount of lubricant on your fingers and draw the
o’ring through your fingers to lightly lubricate it. Do not stretch
the o’ring. Check that the lip of the port where the o’ring fits
and the sealing surface on the housing are clean. Place the port,
with o’ring into the housing’s port opening. Press down on the
port firmly and evenly until you feel the port slide into place.
Continue to push down on the port and push each port lock
forward until it clicks into place. It may help to slightly rotate
the port as you push in on the port lock. When the port lock
clicks into place the Release Button will drop down against the
port lock.
Check around the perimeter of the port seal to see that the
o’ring is properly sealed and not extruded.

If the port is installed before the
camera is inserted into the housing,
look on the inside of the housings at
the port seal. Check to see that the
o’ring is properly sealed as shown in
figure 1 and not extruded as shown in
figure 2.

This housing has Conversion Circuitry built into the camera
tray. When used with Ikelite DS Substrobes the Conversion
Circuitry provides real Canon eTTL flash exposure with over and
under-exposure compensation of two f-stops in half-stop
increments.
The Consversion Circuitry also offers Manual exposure control
with 3 1/2 f-stops of under-exposure control in 1/2 stop
increments.
The Conversion Circuitry is powered by the Ikelite DS Substrobe
when connected to the housing with the #4103.51 single or
#4103.52 dual sync cord.
See page 12 for DS Substrobe compatibility with the Conversion
Circuitry.

If the camera is busy with a function such as displaying a
photograph on the LCD panel the Conversion Circuitry cannot
be accessed to make changes. Wait until the camera has
finished with any activity before making changes through the
Conversion Circuitry.
