Hi guys,

I have three older lencarta smartflashes and also a set of Yongno 622c triggers that I'd like to use. Can you tell me the name of the little wires to connect them and if I need to connect one to every light or will one trigger the others? I've no instructions and so far I've been using a single light with the long wire.
 
Its a PC chord lencarta usually include one with each head. If you're purely wanting to trigger them in the regular way you can just hook up one light to the receiver and set the others to use their inbuilt optical slaves so they fire whenever the first does but if you want to take advantage of suoersync to shoot at high speed with the 622's then you will need a receiver and cable for each individual head

The Cable you need to connect the YN622 to the flash head is a PC Sync cable to 3.3mm jack and it looks like this:
