hey guys,
i bought one of these a long time ago. i used it about a dozen times and all worked fine.
i had purchased a magnetospeed and using ever since. the other day i decided to get the master crony out &
i must have lost the phone cable that connects the remote to the main unit. here`s the rub...
i found a 4pin phone line around and tried it. i plugged both ends in and it made the unit come on with out having to turn the unit on by the switch ( its not supposed to do this ) but i tried the chrony any how in the same conditions as i had always used it and it would not register a shot. just had the same charactors on the screen as when you turned it on. so, i thought i`d buy a 6pin phone line because thats what the connector in the remote & the main unit have. i thought that might be the problem.
so i took the new 6pin line and plugged it in to both units, turned the switch on and nothing happened, would not come on.
so i`m wondering if there is a certain phone cord thats needed to make this thing operate.
i did check the sensors to make sure they were "on" (manual tells you how to do that).
i know it was not sky conditions, where i was placing the shot, or other user issues. i believe its in the type of phone line needed. and since the co. that made these is well out of business, i dont know where to go from here.
any help! thank you.
