Power-Control Group Selection 

Both the transmitter and the receiver have a 16-grade Power-Control Group Select Dial (hereinafter 

referred to as Dial). With these 16 grades, you can wireless control at most 16 flash groups in terms of 

the following functions: adjusting the power ratios and turning on/off the buzzer and the modeling lamp 

or the AF-assist beam. 

 

Attach the receiver(s) on multiple flashes/one flash and set the Dial of each receiver to the same grade. 

This is a flash group. Then attach the transmitter on the camera’s hotshoe or hold it in hand, and set the 

Dial to the same grade as that of receiver(s). After settings, the flashes will be under your command.
