Power not set automatically via TTL
I am using a Nikon system: D5300 + SB600.
I have the system set up to use TTL. The camera is set to TTL, so is the flash. The flash display shows the TTL icon.
Both cactus units are set to the correct system settings for camera and flash. The TX is set to TTL mode. It's status window show the letters 'TTL'.
To me all is set up to use TTL.
However the power is not set correctly when talking a photo.
What am I doing wrong?

Comments
I notice that the sb600 is put in 'FP' mode instead of 'BL'.
I am unable to change this. Only when I mount the flash on the TX unit on the camera, the flash is in 'SB' mode.
Setting the V6II Tx to "TTL mode" only enables "TTL pass-through", i.e., a flash on top of the V6II Tx will be able to communicate with the camera using TTL.
All off-camera flashes need to have their power levels set manually via the V6II Tx dial.
We will contact the dealer so they can make sure all their sales staff get the same product information.
Please look for a private message in your inbox, @airtema. And again, we apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you during this time.
