No connection between RF60x and V6 II after A03 update

chrismid259

About 3 weeks ago now I purchased two RF60x flash units. They were both running version 103, they worked perfectly. This afternoon I updated both to the latest A03. Neither will connect with the V6 II (FUJ.1.002) on my XT1. I could not change the flash power of the RF60x from the V6 II nor did the flash fire when I pressed the test button on the V6 II.  I rolled back to version A02, which did not solve the issue, then to A01, the same, then to 103. Both units are working perfectly again.

Anyone else having this issue?

Firmware FUJ.1.002 will not work with any A _ _ on RF60X. 

You will need FUJ.A.001. but it is not available yet. 

Keep using 103 for now.  Cheers!

Many thanks. I must admit, I wasn't aware of this.

@chrismid259, no worries. 

We wanted to include a note inside the Firmware Updater so that customers could see before selecting it but it wasn't feasible on the program. 

I have made multiple posts here on the Community Forum as well as mentioning it in my signature. 

This is transitional and we hope it did not caused you much inconvenience.
