3. Attaching Receivers to Flashes

Slide each receiver onto the hot shoe of your external speedlite flash or studio strobe. Tighten the locking ring on the receiver to secure the flash. The receiver also features a 1/4-inch screw thread at the bottom, allowing it to be mounted on a tripod or light stand for stable positioning of your flash unit.

4. Setting Channels

Both the transmitter and each receiver have channel switches (labeled 1 and 2, allowing for 4 combinations). Ensure that the channel settings on the transmitter match the channel settings on all receivers you intend to use. This ensures proper communication between the units.

Ашиглалтын заавар

  1. Асаах: Turn on your camera and all connected flash units.
  2. Туршилтын гал: Press the test button on the transmitter. The indicator light on the transmitter and all paired receivers should illuminate, and the connected flashes should fire. This confirms that the units are communicating correctly.
  3. Гэрэл зураг: With the transmitter mounted on your camera and receivers connected to your flashes, simply take a picture. The transmitter will send a signal to the receivers, triggering the flashes in sync with your camera's shutter.
  4. Хүрээ: The system offers an outdoor operating distance of up to 30 meters (90 feet) and an indoor distance of up to 25 meters (75 feet). Obstacles like walls may reduce the effective range.

The PT-04GY system provides reliable synchronization for off-camera flash photography, allowing for creative lighting setups without direct cable connections.

Засвар үйлчилгээ

  • Keep the units dry. Do not expose them to moisture or rain.
  • Clean the contacts on the hot shoe and battery terminals regularly with a clean, dry cloth to ensure good conductivity.
  • When not in use for extended periods, remove batteries from the receivers to prevent leakage.
  • Төхөөрөмжийг сэрүүн, хуурай газар, нарны шууд тусгал болон хэт өндөр температураас хол хадгална уу.
  • Нэгжийг унагах эсвэл хүчтэй цохилтонд оруулахаас зайлсхий.

Алдааг олж засварлах

Flashes are not firing:
  • Check if the batteries in both the transmitter and receivers are correctly installed and have sufficient charge. Replace if necessary.
  • Ensure the channel switches on the transmitter and all receivers are set to the exact same channel.
  • Verify that the transmitter is securely mounted on the camera's hot shoe or connected via the PC sync cable.
  • Confirm that the flashes are properly attached to the receivers and are powered on.
  • Check the distance between the transmitter and receivers. Reduce the distance if they are at the edge of the operating range or if there are many obstacles.
  • Ensure your camera's flash settings are appropriate (e.g., external flash enabled, not in silent mode that disables flash).
Irregular or inconsistent firing:
  • Interference from other wireless devices can affect performance. Try changing the channel setting.
  • Weak batteries can cause inconsistent firing. Replace batteries in both transmitter and receivers.
  • Ensure there are no large metallic objects or thick walls directly between the transmitter and receivers that could block the signal.
Flash fires in standby (as noted in a review):
  • This can sometimes occur due to environmental electrical interference or specific camera/flash combinations. Try changing the channel.
  • Ensure the flash unit itself is not set to a mode that might cause premature firing (e.g., optical slave mode if not intended).
