Group What’s in the Box of TT600? 1-flash unit 1-Mini Stand 1-Protection Case 1-Instruction manual Separately Sold Accessories The product can be used in combination with the following accessories sold separately, so as to achieve best photography effects: Cells II high speed trigger, FT-16S power & trigger control, Car charger, Mini softbox, White & Silver Reflector, Honeycomb, Color gels, Snoot, etc. Attaching to a Camera 1. Attach the Camera Flash. Slip the camera flash’s mounting foot into the camera’s hotshoe all the way. 2. Secure the Camera Flash. Rotate the locking screw on the mounting foot until it locks up. 3. Detach the Camera Flash. Rotate the locking screw on the mounting foot until it is loosened. Using the Flash 1. Power Management Use ON/OFF Power Switch (16) to power the flash unit on or off. Turn off if it will not be used for an extended period of time. This flash unit has Sleep Function and will enter into sleep status when there is no operation for a long time. For Sleep Function setting, see the following instruction. 2. Flash Output Flash output can be varied from 1/128th power to 1/1 full power in 1/3 stop increments. To obtain a correct flash exposure, use a hand-held flash meter to determine the required flash output. Adjust the power output by rotating Select Dial (14). The following table makes it easier to see how the stop changes in terms of f/stop when you increase or decrease the flash output: Figures displayed when reducing flash output level→ 1/1-0.3 1/1-0.7 1/1 1/2-0.3 1/2-0.7 1/2 1/2+0.7 1/2+0.3 … 1/4 1/4+0.7 1/4+0.3 OF … ←Figures displayed when increasing flash output level When “OF” is shown on the LCD display, it means no flash output and flash firing is turned off. 3. ZOOM: Setting the Flash Coverage The flash coverage can be set to match the lens focal length from 24 mm to 200 mm. Press < > button (12) and rotate Select Dial (14) to change the flash coverage. When setting the flash coverage, make sure it covers the lens focal length so that the picture will not have a dark periphery. 4. M Mode: Manual Mode Press MODE Selection Button (11) to enter M mode. In this mode, you can set the flash unit onto your camera hot shoe or your trigger hot shoe for firing. Before shooting, adjust the flash power output. When the camera’s shutter is pressed, the flash will fire synchronously. Slave triggering mode is not available in M mode. 5. Multi Mode: Stroboscopic Flash Press Mode Selection Button (11) to enter Multi mode (Stroboscopic flash). With stroboscopic flash, a rapid series of flashes is fired. It can be used to capture multiple images of a moving subject in a single photograph. You can set the firing frequency (number of flashes per sec. expressed as Hz), the number of flashes, and the flash output. For setting procedures, see the following: Press the Mode Selection Button (11) so that “Multi” is displayed. Press Set Button (15) to select the item to be set. The item blinks. Rotate Select Dial (14) to set a desired number. Calculating the Shutter Speed During stroboscopic flash, the shutter remains open until the firing stops. Use the provided formula to calculate the shutter speed required to capture the full sequence of flashes: Number of flashes / Firing frequency = Shutter speed For example, if the number of flashes is 10 and the firing frequency is 5 Hz, the shutter speed should be at least 2 sec. Note: Stroboscopic flash is most effective with a highly reflective subject against a dark background. Using a tripod and a remote switch is recommended. A flash output of 1/1 or 1/2 cannot be set for stroboscopic flash. Stroboscopic flash can be used with “buLb”. Maximum Stroboscopic Flashes： 1 6-7 8-9 1/4 1/8 14 14 12 10 1/16 30 30 30 20 20 20 10 1/32 60 60 60 50 50 40 30 1/64 90 90 90 80 80 70 60 1/128 100 100 100 100 100 90 80 10 11 12-14 15-19 20-50 1/4 1/8 1/16 1/32 20 20 20 18 16 12 Flash Output Flash Output Hz Hz 60-199 1/64 50 40 40 35 30 20 1/128 70 70 60 50 40 40 To avoid overheating and deteriorating the flash head during stroboscopic flash, do not use stroboscopic flash more than 10 times in succession. 6. S1 Mode: S1 Slave Triggering Mode Long Press button for 2 seconds to enter the custom menu and press Set Button to choose Sn. Then, turn the Select Dial to choose OFF/S1/S2. In S1 mode, the flash unit can function as a slave flash for creating multiple lighting effects. It is respectively applicable to manual flash environment.

S2 Mode: S2 Slave Triggering Mode Long Press button for 2 seconds to enter the custom menu and press Set Button to choose Sn. Then, turn the Select Dial to choose OFF/S1/S2. In S2 mode, the flash unit can function as a slave flash for creating multiple lighting effects. It is applicable when using a TTL master flash. In S2 mode, the flash unit will ignore a single “preflash” from the master flash and will only fire in response to the second, actual flash from the master. 8. Hi-Speed Sync Triggering To enter To exit mode, long press < > button and hold for 2 seconds. mode, press Mode Selection Button or long press < > button and hold for 2 seconds again.

Over-Temperature Protection To avoid overheating and deteriorating the flash head, do not fire more than 30 continuous flashes in fast succession at 1/1 full power. After 30 continuous flashes, allow a rest time of at least 10 minutes. If you fire more than 30 continuous flashes and then fire more flashes in short intervals, the inner over-temperature protection function may be activated and make the recycling time about 10 to 15 seconds. If this occurs, allow a rest time of about 10 minutes, and the flash unit will then return to normal. When the over-temperature protection is started, is shown on the LCD display. Number of flashes that will activate over-temperature protection: Power Output Level Number of Flashes 1/1 30 1/2 +0.7 40 1/2 +0.3 50 1/2 60 1/4（+0.3,+0.7） 100 1/8（+0.3,+0.7） 200 1/16（+0.3,+0.7） 300 1/32（+0.3,+0.7） 500 1/64（+0.3,+0.7） 1000 1/128（+0.3,+0.7） Number of flashes that will activate over-temperature protection in high-speed sync mode: Power Times 1/1 15 1/2（+0.3,+0.7）; 20 1/4（+0.3,+0.7） 30 1/8（+0.3,+0.7）; 1/16（+0.3,+0.7） 40 1/32（+0.3,+0.7）; 1/64（+0.3,+0.7）; 50 1/128（+0.3,+0.7）; 2. Other Protections The system provides real-time protection to secure the device and your safety. The following lists prompts for your reference: Prompts on LCD Panel Meaning E0 A failure occurs on the temperature sensor. Please send this kit to a maintenance center. E1 A failure occurs on the recycling system so that the flash cannot fire. Please restart the flash unit. If the problem still exists, please send this product to a maintenance center. E2 The system gets excessive heat. Please allow a rest time of 10 minutes. E3 The voltage on two outlets of the flash tube is too high. Please send this product to a maintenance center. Advanced Application 1. Bounce Flash By pointing the flash head toward a wall or ceiling, the flash will bounce off the surface before illuminating the subject. This can soften shadows behind the subject for a more natural-looking shot. 2. Creating a Catchlight With the catchlight panel, you can create a catchlight in the subject’s eyes to add life to the facial expression. 3. Using the Wide Panel Pull out the built-in wide panel to enlarge the flash lighting range, so as to get more softened and natural lighting effect.
