V6 II with Cactus RF60
I just got the V6II and I'm testing it with the RF60 - nothing. How do I get these to work? It will fire but not HSS. The RF60 is set to HSS, but does not fire. Also, the V6II will not control the RF60s power.
Does anyone have suggestions?

What camera are you using?
If you are using the default auto-detect, did you half-press camera shutter button as you swtich on the V6 II to TX mode?
What firmware are you running on your RF60?
Use the latest version V2.04.
You can check the version by pressing the NEXT button and switching ON the flash.
By default (v2.04) AU HSS (Automatic HSS) is switched ON already. So you don't need to set anything on the flash - except for:
- SLAVE mode
- Channels - same as V6 II TX
- Group - make sure the group is activated on V6 II TX
..
. AF-assist light comes on when the camera sends out a corresponding signal. A few manufacturers have taken away this signal, such as Fujifilm, Olympus, and Sony.
Thank you.

Download the Firmware Updater here:

You will also need a mini-USB cable to connect the flash to your computer.
Get the latest version, v.2.04.
Thank you.
