vital information for the safe operation of the product as well as

it can also be found for download where you download this user guide.
Product registration and firmware update
Before use, product registration and firmware update are required.
When you start the Connect Pro for the first time, a welcome screen
with a QR code will appear on the display. Scan the QR code with your
smartphone and you will be directed to a web page with instructions
on how to set up your Connect Pro.
Setting up Connect Pro and flashes
1. Put AAA batteries in the battery compartment [11] of the Connect
Pro.
2. Slide the hot shoe connector [13] on the Connect Pro into the hot
shoe of the camera. Turn the Locking mechanism [12] clockwise
to lock it securely to the hotshoe.
3. Switch on the Connect Pro.
4. Select Air channel on Connect Pro and make sure to select the
same Air channel on all Profoto flashes that you will use in your
setup.
NOTE
Connect Pro will trigger and control all flashes set to the same channel within wireless
range so if you are setting up your lights close to another setup, then make sure that you
are using different channels.
5. If you are using several flashes and want to be able to control them
individually from Connect Pro, you can do that by selecting a
different Air group (A-F) on each flash.
