in V6 Problems
Hi, just bought a cactus v6 to control a Canon 430exiii-RT and it is firing the flash but doesn't allow me to control the power level from the TX.

I tried to set a custom profile, but it is saying 'not supported'

Please help!!

    The V6 has a pre-loaded flash profile for Canon 430ex* for remote power level. Please mount the flash on top of the V6 in RX mode. Make sure your flash is in TTL mode.To select profile, press MENU button > CHOOSE PROFILE > CANON > CANON 430EX* .

    I hope that helps. Cheers!

    This does not work. Works ok with the 430ex, it triggers the 430exiii-rt, but doesn't all you to change the power from the TX.

    Can any one try?

    Cheers

    Hi @RedizardDesign

    If you can't control the flash power output selecting 430EX profile, choose instead the "320EX" profile.

    The reason is the 430EXiii is likely also a flash that runs purely on digital TTL protocols.

    Give that a try and please let us know if it works. Thank you!
