Check out pages 40-42 in the NEW CC manual. This covers the lightmeter operation. See the link below.

The Sekonic flash meter operates on a different frequency than the CC. However, you can connect the CST to the pc contact of say a L-358. This will allow the Sekonic to trigger any CyberSync receivers.

To expound a little further, the module available for Sekonic is a PocketWizard product, and is only compatible with PocketWizard products. Sekonic and PocketWizard are both distributed by MAC Group. There is not a module for Sekonic meters compatible with CyberSync or any other remote system (to my knowledge).

You can use the flash (delay) setting on your Sekonic, then use the CC to trigger the strobe. I'm not sure why you would need to do this for general use, but it can be useful for setting speedlites when using them with the strobes.
