10. Flash Profile: Auto-detect and Customization
The V6 IIs transceiver commands flashes to fire at a particular output via flash
profiles. There are three ways to obtain the correct flash profiles:
1. Apply the <AUTO> flash profile (see Section 10.1).
2. Choose from the pre-installed flash profiles in the V6 IIs (see Section 10.2).
3. Customize the auto profile in the Cactus Firmware Updater on a PC or Mac (see
Section 10.3).
10.1 Applying Auto Flash Profile
The auto flash profile in V6 IIs works with all Sony system flashes with the MI shoe to
produce a moderately accurate (error within 0.3EV) flash output.
The auto flash profile would be loaded to V6 IIs by default..
If you wish to obtain more accurate output that is fine-tuned for your specific flash
units, choose the model-specific flash profiles (see Section 10.2) or customize the
existing flash profiles (see Section 10.3).
10.2 Choosing a Flash Profile
Choose the appropriate flash profile from the pre-installed profile list for each V6 IIs
RX you will use with your flash.
1. Switch on the V6 IIs in RX mode.
2. Press , and then turn the selection dial to <FLASH PROFILE>. Press
