1. Over-Temperature Protection

 

To avoid overheating and deteriorating the flash head, do not fire more than 100 continuous flashes in fast 

succession at 1/1 full power. After 100 continuous flashes, allow a rest time of at least 10 minutes.

 

If you fire more than 100 continuous flashes and then fire more flashes in short intervals, the inner over-

temperature protection function may be activated and make the recycling time over 10 seconds. If this occurs, 

allow a rest time of about 10 minutes, and the flash unit will then return to normal.

 

When the over-temperature protection is started,         is shown on the LCD display.

   Number of flashes that will activate over-temperature protection:

Wireless Control Function

The flash unit is built in with a Wireless Control Port so that you can 

wirelessly adjust the power level of the flash and the flash triggering. 

To control the flash wirelessly, you need a FT-16 remote control set (on-

camera and on-flash). Insert its receive end into the Wireless Control Port 

on the flash and insert the transmit end into the camera hot shoe. Settings 

made on the hotshoe-mounted transmit and receive ends will be wirelessly 

communicated to the flash. Then you can press the camera shutter 

release button to trigger the flash. You can also hold the transmit end at 

hand to control your off-camera flash.

For full instructions on the use of FT series remote control, see its 

user manual.

Sync Triggering

The Sync Cord Jack is a Φ3.5mm plug. Insert a trigger plug here and the flash will be fired synchronously with the 

camera shutter.
