Wireless flash shooting: Radio transmission
When YN860Li is used as master unit, it can remotely alter flash mode,
output, stroboscopic times, stroboscopic frequency and focal length of
YN860Li/YN660/YN560IV/YN560III/YN968N which are set to slave unit
mode, it can control slave unit parameters of 6 groups at most, it is also
compatible with RF605,RF603(II),RF-602 series wireless flash trigger.
When YN860Li is used as slave unit, it supports receiving signals from the
following master control unit: YN860Li/YN560IV/YN660 speedlite, and
YN560-TX(II)/RF605/RF603(II)/RF-602 series wireless flash trigger.
Master unit refers speedlite or wireless flash trigger installed on camera,
slave unit refers to speedlite or wireless flash trigger controlled through
radio transmission. For using accessar y small bracket to fix slave unit, the
basic relative position and operating range are as shown in the figure.

of the current group, the speedlite supports M/MULTI flash mode and --(no flash).Press [
] to set
the focal length of the speedlites in different groups, in Multi mode, short press [
] to set
stroboscopic times and frequency. The flash mode, flash output, focal length of speedlites in groups
A-F can be set differently, among of the speedlites, the setting of the master control flash is set to be
the same as that of group A. When the camera's shutter button is pressed, the speedlites in all groups
fire according to the setting of the master control unit with the synchronizing signal of camera.
The radio transmission modes of master control unit and slave unit need to be set to be consistent
through customs function setting.
The flash parameters of YN860Li can be set remotely through YN560-TX(II) wireless flash trigger,
when RF-602/RF603/RF605 are used to send or receive signals,the flash mode or output needs to
be set on the speedlite of slave unit.

Wireless Flash Shooting: Optical slave mode(S1/S2)
Short press the [
] button unit [S1] or [S2] icon is display. The two
modes are also suitable for off-camera slave unit, for create a variety of
lighting effects, which is suitable for manual flash and TTL flash
environment. The two modes are same as M mode when adjusting the flash
output. When using the S1\S2 mode, you can rotate the flash head to make
the sensors face to the master unit.
S1 mode: In this mode it will work with the first flash synchronously of the
master flash, with the result consistent with the use of radio slave. To use
this
mode properly, the master flash should be set at manual flash and the TTL
flash system with preflight function and the red-reduction function with
multiple flashes should not be used.
S2 mode: It is also called "pre-flash cancel mode". This mode is similar with
S1 mode, but it can neglect the pre-flash given by TTL flash. Therefore, it
can support the master flash working in TTL mode. In particular, if S1 mode
cannot flash properly and synchronically with your internal flash, you can
tr y to use S2 mode.

Advanced Applications
1.Use Wide Panel
Pull out the Wide panel, push back the Reflection board and arrange them as per
the figure. The flash range will be enlarged and the effect will be softer and more
natural.
2.Reflection Flash
Bounce flash means to take photos by making flash light head aimed at wall or
ceiling and using the light reflected back from the ceiling or wall to light the
desired object, so that the shade behind the object can be decreased to get more
natural shooting effect.
If the wall or ceiling is too far, the bounce flash may be too weak to get
enough exposure. The wall or ceiling should be even and white in order to get
efficient reflection, if the reflection surface is not white, color cast may
appear in photo.
3.Use Reflection Board
For shooting with the reflection board in flash, pull out the reflection board and
the wide panel out from the light head at the same time and then push the wide
panel back . In such case, if this product is being used to take photos, it will
produce a highlighted point on the eyes of the subject and thus make the eyes
charming (catching light). This function can reach optimal effect when the flash
head is up 90°.

Advanced Applications
4.Short Distance Flash Shooting
When you position the flash head down by 7° , you can shoot subjects at a
short distance in a range of approx. 0.5 to 2 m.
5. PC Sync port (input)
Through connecting to the PC sync port, you can make the flash
synchronously.
6. High-speed Continuous Shooting
The flash can support the high-speed continuous shooting function. Please
set the camera in the continuous shooting form and then shoot.
7. Factor y reset
Long press the [MODE] button and [
] button can set the flash
shooting function settings and wireless shooting setting recover to the
default set-top flash mode status.
