Hello,

I just bought the SP-Systems Exaclibur AC/DC from B&H Photo: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=Search&A=details&Q=&sku=298206&is=REG&addedTroughType=search

When I press the test button, the flash doesn't fire. But, when I use the strobe as a slave, therefore being set off by another strobe, the flash does fire. Does anyone know what is wrong?

Thanks!
Paolo

Whatever doesn't work is wrong! Does the flash fire when you connect a sync lead? It could just be the test button itself BUT - if it's new and it doesn't work, send it back!
