Foreword

Thanks for your purchase of this XT32 wireless power-control flash trigger.

XT32C flash trigger applies to Canon cameras, XT32N flash trigger applies to Nikon cameras. It can also directly control flashes which have built-in Godox wireless X system (e.g. TT685 series, V860II series, AD360II series, AD600 series, QuickerII series, etc.). As to the flashes which do not have Godox wireless X system but have USB wireless control port (e.g. V860 series, V850, AD360, QT series, SK series, etc.), a XTR-16 or XTR-16S receiver can be used in combination to achieve power adjustment and triggering. Featuring multi-channel triggering, stable signal transmission, and sensitive reaction, it gives photographers unparalleled flexibility and control over their strobist setups. XT32C can also connect to the cameras which have PC sync sockets. It supports high-speed sync function and the max flash synchronization speed is up to 1/8000s ^* .

^a : 1/8000s is achievable when the camera has a max camera shutter speed of 1/8000s.

Attentions

1. Unable to trigger flash or camera shutter. Make sure batteries are installed correctly and Power Switch is turned on. Check if the transmitter and the receiver are set to the same channel, if the hotshoe mount or connection cable is well connected, or if the flash triggers are set to the correct mode.
2. Camera shoots but does not focus. Check if the focus mode of the camera or lens is set to MF. If so, set it to AF.
3. Signal disturbance or shooting interference. Change a different channel on the device.
4. Operating distance limited or flash missing. Check if batteries are exhausted. If so, change them.

Maintenance

• Avoid sudden drops. The device may fail to work after strong shocks, impacts, or excess stress.
• Keep dry. The product isn't water-proof. Malfunction, rust, and corrosion may occur and go beyond repair if soaked in water or exposed to high humidity.
• Avoid sudden temperature changes. Condensation happens if sudden temperature changes such as the circumstance when taking the transceiver out of a building with higher temperature to outside in winter. Please put the transceiver in a handbag or plastic bag beforehand.
• Keep away from strong magnetic field. The strong static or magnetic field produced by devices such as radio transmitters leads to malfunction.
