9xi - Trouble with PC sync

[iain_b]

Hi, I have a 9xi which I uses as a field camera and backup studio

camera. The problem is that it does not fire the strobes when I

connect it to the PC sync cable when I use the sync cable that works

on my main studio camera - a 700si with VC700. I used to have a sync

cable that did work, but that would not work on the 700SI.

 

I was wondering whether the polarity of the cable makes a

difference? Should I just make up an adaptor that swaps the polarity

for the 9xi or should it not matter and I should get the 9xi checked

checked out?
