Hi All,,,O.K.,,,Im going to describe my set up and can somebody tell me how (or if I can) to get the SB 600 to fire.

I have two Ailen Bee SB 800' set up, with Cybercync receivers and a Cybercync transceiver, I shoot it all with a Nikon D200, now, I don't have another receiver to attach to my SB600 and I want to know how or if I can set up the SB 600 to fire without it. Thanks in advance for your help. Please feel free to ask any questions for more info if you need it.
Sincerely- Douglas

You will need an inexpensive foot mounted adapter to add a PC sync port on the SB-600. Then you can simply swap a receiver from a SB-800 to be on the SB-600 instead. Put that SB-800 into its SU-4 mode, and it becomes a simple optical trigger, triggered by the other manual flashes.

Hi WayneF, thanks for the suggestion, I will go home and do a quick easy set up and see if that suggestion works, I already have a foot with a cord for the trigger, so I'm good there,,I just need to hook it all up according to your suggestions and see of I can fire all flashes together. Thanks again and I'll reply with the results.

Sincerely - Douglas
