My selection dial for my V6 IIs is now stuck in the "IN" position. Do you have contact information for me to call or eMail support?

    My primary unit just stopped working; it won't turn on. I was limping along using the stuck one as a remote, but now I'm dead in the water. I eMailed technical support two ways so let's see how quickly this is resolved. I'm very hopeful and happy with Cactus so far!

    To help us better help you, always state the exact firmware version installed on your Cactus device(s), such as: "1.1.013", "FUJ.1.002", "NIK.A.001", "v.103".

    For the time being, Cactus V6 (MK1) running on firmware version 2.1.001 can be triggered by a V6 II (MK2) running on Multi-brand HSS firmware (e.g. 1.1.013) but not by X-TTL firmware versions:  PEN.A.001 NIK.A.001 OLY.A.001.  No schedule has been released yet for an "A" version firmware on the V6 (MK1). 

    Cactus RF60X / RF60 Firmware versions A04 and A03 currently ONLY works with PEN.A.001 NIK.A.001 and OLY.A.001.  Other "A" version of X-TTL firmware will be released soon. For both Multi-brand HSS and X-TTL firmware versions (FUJ, SIG, SON), install firmware version 103 / 205 on your RF60X / RF60.

    Hi!

    I don't know about fixed. The process is not really smooth:

    • Send the units back at my expense (lag time, probably a month+)
    • Purchase new units with shipping at my expense in the meantime
    • Receive old units repaired
    • Send back the new units with shipping at my expense
    So, I essentially have to pay for shipping three times so I can have minimum downtime.

    Am I going to have to keep transmitters in reserve to avoid this problem?

    Also, I can't mix and match V6II and V6IIs in the kits. I wish I could!

    Yet another, it's not clear how I will be refunded for just the transmitters when I buy a kit shipped to me. 

    WHEW!

    STILL WAITING for my refund/repair/switch on these transmitters. Five weeks later, still nothing.

    This is not an impressive process.

    Just to circle around...

    Cactus eventually fixed this problem for me. After a bunch of communication, I got some new units as replacement for my broken units.
