Hereʼs a quick video to help you get started.
Turn both switches on the side of the trigger on.
channel group mode
The flash & trigger
communicate via radio
waves, so these are
the same channels youʼd
see on a walkie talkie
or something similiar.
Can be changed to
match the settings on
your camera, but not
always necessary.

On the flash, navigate to this screen using the
recieving button. You want to see “slave” mode
and the “transmitter” mode.
Ensure that the channel on the flash matches
the channel on the trigger. Change the channel
using the channel button.
In the photo to the left, the trigger is in “multi”
mode. Multi means that the flash will go off more
than one time per trigger. The number of flashes
can be changed by pressing the multi button and
spinning the dial.
In order for multi mode to work, the shutter speed
on your camera must be greater than or equal to
the number of flashes over the flash frequency.
Use the button on top of the trigger
to trigger the flash.

To incorporate the Speedlight YN560IV flash:
Ensure that the channel on the flash matches
the channel on the trigger. Change the channel
using the zoom button + the tigger mode button,
and then the left right buttons.
Using the tigger mode button, navigate until you
see the screen below. S1 indicates “slave” mode.
The Speedlight YN560IV flash is a different brand than the trigger we have, so
sometimes there are incompatibility issues. Either use the tigger mode button to
re-navigate to S1, or turn the flash off, wait several seconds, and turn it back on
again. You may have to do this more than once.
