To use your new TRQ7 trigger, you need to upgrade the firmware on your had: HD610, HD601, HD400, MARS, or MSN head, any of the [Jinbei later heads. You need to download the firmware from the Golden Shell or from the PROtog site. We'll include a link on the video and have that ready to go. First thing we do is plug in the head and you'll see that it will come up as a hard drive. PC will be the same. This is a Mac. And we open up that and you'll see that it's just an empty hard drive... or seen as an empty hard drive. We drag the firmware onto there, takes about four or five seconds and it's loaded, unplug and then we can replace the battery.
Turn the unit on and we have a new firmware version on this head. It's the V6.0 RT, it's an RT head. Okay. Now in menu one we go through the wireless signal and we have an extra setting called TTL all. We also have Canon, Nikon, Sony, Fuji, and channel and group control for normal old style Jinbei triggers. But we come back to TTL all. The TTL All is the new receiving setting for the TRQ7. Everything is controlled through TTL All. The other added feature now that we've got the version six firmware is in the second menu. We've got in the RT unit, there is an ID setting, and holding that down we enable Canon RT.
