10.3 Customizing a Flash Profile
If your flash model is not included in the pre-installed profile list but support digital
TTL, configure the V6 IIs to the Auto Flash Profile (see Section 10.1). In case you wish
to fine tune the power level output commanded by the Auto Flash Profile, you may
customize it with the Cactus Profile Editor available to PC and Mac.
1. Follow the firmware update procedures to connect V6 IIs with your computer
(see Section 19.2).
2. Choose the flash system. Input the guide number of your flash at the zoom angle
at 105mm (which is the benchmark of the pre-installed profiles in the V6 IIs).
3. Based on your experience in controlling the flash with the auto flash profile, input
the power adjustment that you would like to achieve in each of the reference
power level.
4. Enter the profile name in 1-6 letters or numbers.
5. Press STORE PROFILE button. The custom profile will be loaded to the connected
V6 IIs.
To choose the saved flash profile from the profile list, see Section 10.2. All custom
profiles will be stored under the flash system <CUSTOM> in the <FLASH PROFILE>
menu.
Each V6 IIs can save up to 10 custom flash profiles from the Cactus Profile Editor.
Note: The Profile Editor supports profile sharing via codes. When customizing a flash
profile, the editor will generate a code representing the changed parameters. You
