Post subject: | AB800 flickers with CST & CSR and Vegabond II |
I was at a wedding shoot past weekend. Connected my AB800 to Vegabond II using CSR and was using my 5DMKii and CST. AB800 wouldnt trigger and suddenly starts to flicker and once i diconnected the sync cord from CSR and used my back up Pocketwizards with same sync cord and Vegabond II its worked fine. Is this issue with CST and might need a new battery or something?? Please help |

I've experienced this same issue. A new battery in the CST solved the problem. |

I agree. The battery in teh CST should be the first thing to check. If you have multiples, check all of them, not just the one you were using. |

Thank you. I have 2 CSTs will try the second one today. Didnt have it with me past weekend. But will surely change the batteries |

If you change the batteries and the problem persists then also check the batteries with a volt meter. I've had them DoA before bought right off the store shelf. |
