 Bug fix:
-    Flash power output in the profiles of Nikon SB-910, SB-900 and SB-700recalibrated.

New features:
Selection dial lock:
To prevent unintended turning of the selection dial and its consequence in affecting the power levels being set unintentionally, the dial can now be locked:
  1. On the TX main screen, pressing and holding the selection dial or the OK button for 2 seconds will lock the selection dial from adjusting all group or single group power level. (Note: The short-cut to adjust a single group power level by pressing a group button and turning the dial simultaneously will be unaffected.)
  2. To temporarily unlock the selection dial, press the selection dial or OK button once. Alternatively, press and hold any group button to select a group for power level adjustment. The dial will be locked again when no button or dial is pressed or turned for 2 seconds.
  3. To permanently unlock the selection dial, press and hold the selection dial or the OK button for 2 seconds.
Group sequence:
In the new menu item <GROUP SEQUENCE> on the TX units, choose one of the following options to trigger the RX units in a group sequence:
  1. A-B-C-D: The first trigger in a series will fire group A, then group B and so on. The fifth trigger will fire group A and start the cycle again. Another series will restart at group A when there is no triggering event in 2 seconds.
  2. AB-CD: The first trigger in a series will fire group A and B together, then group C and D. The third trigger will fire group A and B, and start the cycle again. Another series will restart at group AB when there is no triggering event in 2 seconds.

    The group cycling is a cool feature!

    It does not work with the RF60 yet, though.

    By when do you think you'll have the RF60 integrated?

    I'm glad you are happy with the group cycling feature. It can be used for cutting out mask,cycling flashes to fire to reduce the flash recycling time, quick shoot for different light source and more.

    By the way, we are working on the firmware update with Group Sequence for RF60. The new update will be released very soon.
