1. Content of the Package

When you purchase a MIOPS RemotePlus, it will be delivered with the following items.

1 x MIOPS RemotePlus
1 x USB Charge Cable

2. Charging and Operation

MIOPS RemotePlus comes with a rechargeable battery which lasts up to 24 hours with a single
charge. The battery will be charged when you connect MIOPS RemotePlus to a USB power
source. You can use your computer USB port for this purpose.

You can power MIOPS RemotePlus directly from the USB port.

3. First Use

Your MIOPS RemotePlus may not be delivered with the latest firmware. If a new firmware has
been released, before you have used it for the first time, you should update the firmware first. To
get detailed information about the firmware upgrade, see the Firmware Upgrade Section.

The rechargeable battery comes partially charged. You can use it right out of the box but you
may need to charge to get it fully loaded. You can charge the battery using any USB charger
(500 mA min.) or the USB port of your computer. MIOPS RemotePlus will be delivered with a

Mini-USB cable. You can use this cable to charge it. The mini end of the USB cable will be
plugged into the USB port. It is located on the left side of the device under the protective cover.

When you short press the button on the back side of the device, the lights on the top side will
flash for a short time and the device will start to work.

4. Camera and Flash Connection

The MIOPS RemotePlus uses connection cables to trigger your camera or flash unit. Your unit
will be shipped with the proper camera connection cables. The MIOPS RemotePlus is a
versatile device, which is compatible with many brand and models. You can use the same
device with many different cameras by just changing the connection cable.

The MIOPS RemotePlus has a single output for both the camera and the flash connection. The
port is a 2.5 mm stereo female jack. The camera cable already has the male 2.5 mm stereo
jack on one end. The other end changes depending on the camera. For flash connection, you
should have a cable with 2.5mm stereo jack on one end and your flash compatible plug on the
other end. You may consider purchasing a MIOPS Flash Adapter if you don't have a compatible
flash cable.

The camera and flash cables are designed to trigger the cameras and flash units only. Do not
use them for any other purpose. Doing so may damage the cable or the device.

5. Mobile Application

MIOPS RemotePlus requires a mobile app which has been designed as an interface to
configure and control your device easily. The communication between the smartphone and
MIOPS RemotePlus is done over Bluetooth connection. So, your smartphone has to be
compatible with Bluetooth 4.0.

MIOPS MOBILE app is available on iOS and Android platforms. Search for MIOPS MOBILE in
your app store, or use the following buttons to download the app.

6. Connecting to MIOPS RemotePlus

Warning: Please make sure that your Bluetooth is turned ON in the connection preferences of

your smartphone or tablet.

After opening the mobile app, you will be asked for selecting your MIOPS product. After
selecting MIOPS RemotePlus from the list, you will be listed all available RemotePlus devices
around. In case your device is not shown in the list, make sure that your RemotePlus is turned
ON and click the Scan button again.

7. Firmware Upgrade

MIOPS RemotePlus+ has the capability of updating its firmware without needing any cable
connection to a computer. You can use the mobile app to check for new firmware version and

then update the device with a single click.

When you connect your device through MIOPS MOBILE app, it automatically checks your
device's firmware version and prompts a pop-up message if a new firmware is available.

When you click "Update" button, the firmware upgrade process will start immediately.

You can also use "Check Firmware Update" option in the Settings menu to check manually if
there is a new firmware available.

8. Using the Mobile Application

The mobile app has a main menu to switch between different modes which are listed from top
to the bottom. You can select the mode you want to use by touching the icon. The menu will
scroll down to show additional modes that do not fit into the screen. The main menu will
disappear once you select any mode and the app will enter into the configuration page of that
particular mode. You can switch between different modes anytime. In order to do that, you just
need to click the arrow icon on the top left-hand side of the screen. When you switch back and
forth between different modes, the settings will not change.

When you connect your MIOPS RemotePlus through the MIOPS MOBILE app, you will notice a
Bluetooth icon with a green tick on the top left-hand side of the screen. This shows that you
connected your device successfully. If you click the same icon, you will notice a warning asking if
you really want to disconnect from RemotePlus. You can click "Yes" if you want to disconnect
and search for other devices.

9. FEATURES

9.1. CABLE RELEASE MODES:

In this section, you will find information about different cable release modes.

9.1.a. Cable Release:

The Cable Release mode is the basic mode to trigger your camera or flash. It does not have
any parameter. The moment you touch the orange button, MIOPS RemotePlus will trigger your
camera for the duration of the pulse length. If your camera is in bulb mode, the shutter will stay
open as long as the duration of the pulse. Otherwise, the exposure of the camera settings will be
valid.

Also, you can focus your camera by pressing the small button. It will keep your camera focusing
as long as you press the button.

9.1.b. Press & Hold:

The Press & Hold mode has a level of flexibility by keeping the shutter open as long as you
keep your finger on the button. This way, you are not limited to the pulse length. When you touch
the button, a counter will start at the bottom of the screen. You can count how many
seconds/milliseconds have passed. The shutter will close when you release the button. Again, in
order to control the shutter with this mode, the camera must be in BULB mode.
