Wireless Flash Shooting: Radio (2.4G) Transmission
Using a flash (master/slave) with a radio transmission wireless shooting function make it easy to shoot with
advanced wireless multiple flash lighting, in the same way as i-TTL autoflash shooting.
The basic relative position and operation range are as shown in the picture. You can then perform wireless i-TTL
autoflash shooting just by setting the master unit to <
TTL
>.
AD360II-N adopts Godox 2.4G wireless X system, which can be used in combination with other products in our
factory.
As a slave unit, AD360II-N is compatible with Canon E-TTL II and Nikon i-TTL systems. It will automatically change
its system according to the master unit instead of setting by manual. Once received the master unit’s signal,
"Canon" or "Nikon" is displayed the LCD panel.
Nikon cameras (use X1T-N, TT685N, etc) and Canon cameras (use X1T-C, TT685C, etc) can use one or more
AD360II-N flashes simultaneously.
* As master unit, AD360II-N can control the following slave units: AD360II-C, AD360II-N, TT685N, X1R-N, TT600
,
etc.
* As slave unit, AD360II-N can be controlled by the following master units: AD360II-C, AD360II-N, TT685C, TT685N,
X1T-C, X1T-N, TT600
,
etc.
To use the flash with 2.4G wireless shooting functions (master/slave), use the same setting method as i-TTL autoflash.
The positioning and operation range can be found in the following pictures. Set the master unit as <i-TTL> mode to
wirelessly fire flashes.
Positioning and Operation Range
(Example of wireless flash shooting)
●
Autoflash Shooting with One Slave Unit
●
Use the supplied mini stand to position the slave unit.
●
Before shooting, perform a test flash and test shooting.
●
The transmission distance might be shorter depending on the conditions such as positioning of slave
units, the surrounding environment and whether conditions.
Transmission distance is about 70m
Wireless shooting using radio transmission has advantages over wireless shooting using optic transmission, such
as being less affected by obstacles, and not having to point the slave unit's wireless sensor toward the master unit.
The main functional differences are as follows:
Wireless Flash Shooting: Radio (2.4G) Transmission
Wireless Multiple Flash Shooting
You can divide the slave units into two or three groups and perform i-TTL autoflash while changing the flash ratio
(factor). In addition, you can set and shoot with a different flash mode for each firing group, for up to 5 groups.

Easy
1. Disturbed by the 2.4G signal in outer environment (e.g. wireless base station, 2.4G wifi router,
Bluetooth, etc.)
→
To adjust the channel CH setting on the flash trigger (add 10+ channels) and use the channel which is not
disturbed. Or turn off the other 2.4G equipment in working.
2. Please make sure that whether the flash has finished its recycle or caught up with the continuous
shooting speed or not(the flash ready indicator is lighten) and the flash is not under the state of
over-heat protection or other abnormal situation.
→
Please downgrade the flash power output. If the flash is in TTL mode, please try to change it to M mode(a
preflash is needed in TTL mode).
3. Whether the distance between the flash trigger and the flash is too close or not
→
Please turn on the “close distance wireless mode” on the flash trigger (
＜
0.5m):
X1 series: press the test button and hold on, then turning it on until the flash ready indicator blinks for 2
times.
XPro series: Set the C.Fn-DIST to 0-30m.
4. Whether the flash trigger and the receiver end equipment are in the low battery states or not
→
Please replace the battery(the flash trigger is recommended to use 1.5V disposable alkaline battery).
