I'm not sure how to set it up and I'm afraid to fry something.
Do I attach the cable to the jrx receiver and the jrx transmitter to the camera hotshoe? Not sure as I don't know how the camera would know to be triggered from the hotshoe.
You can't hurt anything by plugging the cable into the correct holes. You connect one end to trigger, the other to the camera remote socket. ON most cameras that is on the front. You hold the trigger in your hand to fire camera. Why would you put transmitter in hotshoe and connect receiver to the camera?
There was a comment on flickr that had me confused:
" did another test with a JrX transmitter attached to the camera body hotshoe and a receiver attached with the pre-trigger cord. This time, the camera being triggered had no problems doing sequence shots. Bulb exposures still won't work though. One thing to keep in mind is that the camera with the transmitter can only transmit a "fire" signal as fast as its frame rate will allow"

I have two CyberSync transmitters and a box full of CyberSync receivers. I sometimes will put a transmitter in the hotshoe of my D80, set to channel 5 to trigger a bunch of flash units. Attached to the D80 might be a CyberSync receiver tuned to channel 10. D80 mounted on tripod, ready for action. I will have another transmitter in the hotshoe of my D300, tuned to channel 10. When I take a shot with my D300, it sends a signal to the D80. D80 fires itself and all the flash. I get two shots for the price of one, from different angles or with different lenses. Flash sync on D80 is set to 1/200 and sync on D300 is set to 1/`60 since there is a bit of lag.
