5.1 ShutterTriggerOutput

Thetriggeroutputusesastandard“RCA”jack.RCAexte nsionscomeinalldifferenttypes,one

endasmaleandtheotherasfemale.Toextendtheshuttertriggercable length,simplybuya

mono(single)extensionwhichistypicallyusedforvideo.



AswithallRCAjackstheoutsideconnectorisground.TheStackShottriggeroutputisa“Low

SideDriver”(switchesinground).Thismeansthatwhentheshuttertriggeroutputfires,it

connectsthecenterconductoroftheRCAjacktotheoutsideconnector(ground)todraw

currentthroughthecenterconductor.

useahigh‐qualitycable–otherwiseperformancemaybesacrificed.
