Your ME Super is probably faulty. It should fire any flash with a hot-shoe
connection. Does the falsh shoe work with other flashes?
The Manual for the AF160 as well as ME Super can be found here:

Emne: AF160 Flash with ME Super


Can I use a AF160 Flash with ME Super? I tried to but the flash doesn't
fire. I do not have manuals for either. The flash test fires. I used a
small length of wire to manually connect the centre of the flash hotshoe
with the side pin of the hotshoe. The flash fired. I guess this is what
the camera does when the shutter is clicked.

I put a multimeter probe on side and centre pin of ME Super hotshoe
and clicked. No connectivity. Is my ME Super broken? What is the second
off-centre pin in the ME super hotshoe for?

Should I try to get a cable and try to connect that? I tried the 125
setting on the dial of the ME super but that didn't help either. Is
there some other setting that I have to do?

Thanks for any pointers.
Gaurav
