Im using a flash unit that requires a voltage pulse of 5 – 10 V to trigger. Can I use a HiViz trigger or delay circuit for this?
Yes, with modification. Connect a voltage source of 5-10 V in series with the output of the trigger or delay circuit and your flash unit. After each triggering, you may need to open the output circuit and then close it again in order to effect a reset. The diagram below shows the connections for a 9-V trigger pulse.
