I have the TL QL, but I am not sure what my lever that is on the front left side does, it looks like the same on the FT QL timer. What cable release should I use?

The shutter button is on the knob that changes from the "A" to the red "L". If pressing it yields no result, crank the lever farthest to the right on the top.
