For Your Safety
Thanks for your purchase of this X1C TTL wireless flash trigger.
This TTL wireless flash trigger can be used with a transmitter and one or more receivers for
studio flash, speedlite, and camera shutter. Featuring multi-channel triggering, stable signal
transmission, and sensitive reaction, it gives photographers unparalleled flexibility and control
over their strobist setups. The flash trigger applies to hotshoe-mounted Canon EOS series
cameras, as well as the cameras which have PC sync sockets.
With X1C wireless flash trigger, high speed synchronization is available for most of camera
flashes in the market which support E-TTL II. The max flash synchronization speed is up to
1/8000s *.
*: 1/8000s is achievable when the camera has a max camera shutter speed of 1/8000s.
1/8000s is not achievable because some models of Canon EOS cameras have a max camera
shutter speed of only 1/4000s.

Attentions
Technical Data
1. Unable to trigger flash or camera shutter. Make sure batteries are installed correctly and
Power Switch is turned on. Check if the transmitter and the receiver are set to the same
channel, if the hotshoe mount or connection cable is well connected, or if the flash triggers
are set to the correct mode.
2. Camera shoots but does not focus. Check if the focus mode of the camera or lens is set to
MF. If so, set it to AF.
3. Signal disturbance or shooting interference. Change a different channel on the device.
4. Operating distance limited or flash missing. Check if batteries are exhausted. If so, change
them.
5. No
is displayed on the camera viewfinder, though the camera is mounted on
the transmitter and the power switch is turned on. This is resulted from unusual working of
the transmitter. Check and make sure the flash trigger is well connected to the camera
through Hot Shoe Camera Connection, then power the Transmitter on again.
Caring for Flash Trigger
• Avoid sudden drops. The device may fail to work after strong shocks, impacts, or excess
stress.
• Keep dry. The product isn't water-proof. Malfunction, rust, and corrosion may occur and
go beyond repair if soaked in water or exposed to high humidity.
• Avoid sudden temperature changes. Condensation happens if sudden temperature
changes such as the circumstance when taking the transceiver out of a building with
higher temperature to outside in winter. Please put the transceiver in a handbag or plastic
bag beforehand.
• Keep away from strong magnetic field. The strong static or magnetic field produced by
devices such as radio transmitters leads to malfunction.
