I have the CFV39 and assume it's the same operation. Set your time on the back to at least the time of the exposure. I generally will set it for slightly more time then my actual exposure like 15 seconds on the back for a 10 or twelve second exposure. It speeds things up a great deal.
I don't know if the H back has settings like the V back but I can select the type of camera or sync used between the lens / camera and back. For example when I use it on my Linhof I set the back to flash sync to wake up the back although I found it doesn't seem to matter with my setup. If I use it on my 501CM I set it on 500 series and if I use it on my 500ELM I set it on one 500 ELX or 553, can't remember at the moment which. There are several settings available on the V back depending on the camera.
