STEP 1 | TRANSMITTER
Set the FREQUENCY dial to the desired frequency number on the TRANSMITTER. Slide the transmitter into the camera’s hot shoe.
STEP 2 | RECEIVER / TRANSCEIVER SETUP
AlienBeesTM / White LightningTM
First, connect the CyberSyncTM Plus model receiver to the flash unit (as shown in above diagram). Next, set the sliders located on the
back panel of the flash unit to FULL POWER, making sure all modeling light buttons are pressed in. Then, set the FREQUENCY dial to
the same number that the transmitter is set to. Finally, set each receiver to it’s own individual channel (ONLY using channels 1 thru 4)
on the CHANNEL dial.

DigiBee / EinsteinTM
First, insert the transceiver into the transceiver receptacle located on the top of the DigiBeeTM or EinsteinTM. Next, turn on the flash unit(s).
For the DigiBee, press the FREQUENCY button located on the control panel on the back on the unit. Then, choose the frequency
that the transmitter is set to by using the up and down arrows on the back of the unit. Finally, set each flash unit to their own
individual channel (ONLY using channels 1 thru 4) by pressing the CHANNEL button and using the arrows to select the channel.
For the EinsteinTM, use the function button located on the back control panel and scroll through the fields on the LCD screen
until the channel (“CH”) field is highlighted blue. Use the arrows to select the channel (ONLY using channels 1 thru 4).
Press the function button again to highlight FREQ on the back control panel. Once highlighted, use the arrows to select the frequency.
NOTE: Make sure that all components are set to the SAME FREQUENCY but each flash unit is set to its own INDIVIDUAL CHANNEL
(ONLY using channels 1 thru 4).

The CyberSense is equipped to control up to four different flash units using
the touch sensitive sliders.
Each slider corresponds with the channel label (CH1, CH2, CH3, CH4)
that is located above the CyberSense digital display.
TOUCH AND HOLD the slider, for approx. 2 sec., that corresponds
to the channel that the flash unit receiver/transceiver is set.
Once the CyberSense establishes communication with the flash unit that
is attempting to be added, the current flash setting for that flash unit will
appear in the digital display associated with that channel.
*If the CyberSense cannot communicate with a flash unit on that channel,
the display dashes (---) will blink three times. If this happens, verify
the frequency and distance the CyberSense is from the flash unit.
Repeat the above steps until all flash units are added.
