Hi all:
I have two questions about Olympus cords:

        1.  The M.Quartz Control 1 cord uses a 3 conductor stereo 2.5mm
        plug, as does its extension cord.  Apparently this is to allow
        for "feedback" from the motor drive/winder.  However, in looking
        at the jack for this plug on the Winder 2, it apparently is
        only 2 conductor (mono).  This leads me to believe that this
        "feedback" only comes from the motor drive.  What does this
        feedback consist of?  A pulse everytime a exposure is taken?
        Why is this necessary, if that's what it is?

        2.  Does anyone know the pinout of the 5 pin ttl sockets on
        a T-32?  What I'd like to do is cut a TTL Cord 0.3M in half,
        and solder the end of a PC cord to the appropriate pins.  This
        would allow me to use my TTL cabling with one slave, thus saving
        me having to buy a number of slaves and pc cords.  Will this
        work?


Cheers,
--Lee
