If you cocked the shutter first and then changed the shutter speed to
1/500th you did the inverse sequence, it's necessary to set 1/500th
first and then to cock the shutter, some Compur shutters have a
dedicated spring for 1/500th, Richard has a good explanation about it.
My 2.8C and Rolleicord IV have shutters that need to be set 1/500th
before to cock the shutter,
I use a trick to set 1/500th if the shutter is cocked, I release the
shutter with the lens cap on the lens, then I set 1/500th and activate
the double exposure option to cock the shutter, this way you use the
same frame ; the double exposure option only works with film loaded in
the camera.
