Nikon SD-9: How to use the SD-9

How to use the SD-9

Hooking the SD-9 up to the SB-900 ■

Plug the 3-pin plug of the SD-9’s power

cord into the SB-900’s external power

source terminal.

En

Ready-light ■

Each of two ready-lights (A and B) lights up •

for each circuit.

When the SB-900’s power is on, the SD-9 •

starts to charge the power in sync with the

SB-900, and the ready-light lights up in red.

The ready-light goes off when the power

charge is completed.

The ready-light blinks in red when there •

is danger of the SD-9 overheating because

of its repeating flash operation (power

charge does not start). It stops blinking

when the SD-9 is cooled down to normal

temperature (power charge is available).

Casing the power cord ■

Case the SD-9's power cord to the SD-9

body as shown in the figure.
