It is my understanding that this line of strobes uses only 15 volts for the trigger circuit. I would check with the manufacture of your units to get the trigger voltage they are set for. Also make sure that the pc cord is of the proper length to reach in and make a good contact. Then when removing make sure you twist and pull straight out so as not to cause a loose fit or to cause the contact in the camera to come loose.
