Important things to know before starting…

Reviewing Firmware Files

Firmware updates will be made available on the Westcott Firmware Update page:
(

https://www.westcott.com/firmware

.) Firmware updates often improve the overall performance of the

device or allows for minor updates to the GUI of the FJ Wireless product. Please review ALL
documentation included with each firmware download to ensure all of the necessary preparation steps
are complete before installing the firmware.

TTL ±3 Flash Exposure Compensation

±3 TTL Flash Exposure Compensation (FEC) on the FJ-X3 is independent of the Flash Exposure
Compensation (FEC) on the connected FJ Wireless light. Meaning, a change of the FEC ±3 on the FJ-X3
will adjust the light output in TTL mode; however, the connected FJ Wireless light’s screen will not
indicate the FEC changes made on the FJ-X3. The FJ Wireless light FEC can be further adjusted ±3.

Canon Continuous Mode

When photographing in Canon Continuous Mode, two overlapping squares will be visible on the

FJ

Wireless Trigger

, and the FJ Wireless System will default to Manual Mode; disabling TTL and HSS

functionality. Exit Continuous Mode on the Canon camera to resume TTL and HSS functionality.
