Thank you for purchasing the JJC JF-U Series 3 in 1 Wireless Remote Control & Flash Trigger Kit.

The JF-U Series 3 in 1 Wireless Remote Control & Flash Trigger Kit is a versatile and reliable remote control kit that can be used as a Wired Remote Control, a Wireless Remote Control, or a Wireless Flash Trigger.

Replacing Batteries

1.  Slide open the battery covers of transmitter and receiver respectively in the direction of OPEN ARROW on the battery covers.

2. Put one 23A battery into the battery compartment of the transmitter, and two AAA batteries into the compartment of the receiver as directions shown in the pictures below. Do not install batteries in the reverse direction. (Note: If there is any inconsistency between the battery brands in the picture and those supplied in the package, the actual product shall govern.)

3. Make sure batteries are fully in place and slide back the battery covers of the transmitter and receiver respectively.

Channel setting

Note: Please make sure the Transmitter and Receiver are adjusted to the same channel before using.

There are 16 channels selectable for Transmitter and Receiver. Slide open the battery covers and set channel codes of Transmitter and Receiver to the same position. The following channel is one of the available channels.

Wireless Flash Trigger

1. Check to be sure that both the transmitter and the receiver are set to the same channel. If multiple flash units and receivers are used, please make sure the channel of all the receivers are the same with the transmitter.

2. Turn off your camera, flash as well as the receiver.

3. Mount the transmitter onto the camera hot shoe socket. And mount the flash onto the receiver hot shoe socket.

4. If your flash or studio light does not have a hot shoe, connect the flash or studio light with the ACC2 socket of the receiver by the studio light cable supplied in the package.

5.  Turn on your camera, flash, and shift the Mode switch on receiver to the Flash option. Then press the shutter button on your camera, and both indicators on the transmitter and the receiver will turn green. At this time, your flash will be triggered successfully.

Note! Since the JF-U does not transmit TTL settings, using a fully manually controlled flash or light unit is recommended. Please set the desired power output on the flash manually.
