Important!
Make sure that slave mode is turned off when mounting the VX-710C on your camera. Turn it on only when
using the ash as an off-camera wireless slave.
Overheating protection mode: If the operating temperature of the VX-710C is too high, or after 25 continuous
ashes at 1/1 (full power), the ash will enter overheating protection mode. The thermal warning icon (
) will
appear on the LCD, the unit will emit a long beep for over ten seconds, and you will be unable to re a ash.
We suggest you turn the unit off for ten minutes to let it cool down.
