hey guys have a quick tech question about my alien bees 800. For some reason they are not firing. I have the csr connected to the back of the bee and the sync cord connected from the csr to the back of the bee. They are on the same frequency. My transmitter won't trip the lights. I press the test button on the bee and it works, press test button on the receiver and it works, but press the test button on the transmitter and doesn't trip the lights. Bad transmitter?? I'm using cst as a transmitter. Any tips on how to make it work?

Be sure the frequencies match and are not 180 degrees from one another (there is a notch in one side of the dial used as an indicator).

Also, does the LED blink red on the CST when the test button is pressed?
