V6 II is NOT compatible with the V6!

in V6 II Compatibility
My V6 II Tx will fire the Canon 430EX ii flash on the V6 Rx, but cannot control the power output.

Both Cactus units are on the latest firmware.

HELP.

Basically, my one year old V6 is useless now....

    Have you updated the V6 firmware to V2.1.001 yet?

    Any firmware version before that won't work with the V6II.

    V6 with V2.1.001 was bad!!
    Before that V6 work fine with YN685C+V6, but upgrade to fw V2 it can't work correcttly.

    I mean V6 to V6 the FW V2 was bad.

    PS: I don't have V6II.

    Thanks for reporting your findings.
    Unfortunately we do not have the YN-685c so we cannot test for you immediately.

    Until we finds a solution, and that you do not have the V6 II, please use the previous firmware version for now.

    Thank you.
