Calculating the Shutter Speed in Multi Flash Mode
During multi flash, the shutter remains open until the firing stops. Use the formula below to calculate the shutter speed and set it with the camera.
Number of Flashes ÷ Flash Frequency = Shutter Speed
For example, if the number of flashes is 10 and the flash frequency is 5Hz, the shutter speed should be at least 2 seconds.
Note:
- Multi flash is most effective with a highly reflective subject against a dark background.
- Using a tripod and TTL flash trigger is recommended.
- A flash output of 1/1 and 1/2 cannot be set for multi flash.
- Multi flash can also be used with "BULB" mode.
- Multi flash mode cannot be set in high-speed sync, second-curtain sync and first-curtain sync modes.

Wireless Flash Shooting (2.4G Wireless Transmission)
This chapter mainly explains how to perform wireless multiple shooting with 2.4G wireless transmission by using iT32+X5 as the sender unit (refer to as "sender unit" below) and Godox flashes with 2.4G wireless receiving function as the receiver unit (refer to as "receiver unit" below).
As a sender unit, iT32+X5 can control various receiver units with Godox wireless X system such as AD100Pro II, AD200Pro II, AD600Pro II, AD600BM II, iT32, iT30Pro, V100, V480 and Lux Master.
Note:
- The channel, group, and ID of the sender and receiver units should be set to the same, details of which please refer to the wireless settings section above.
- The above listed are only popular models that can be controlled by iT32+X5, please refer to the official website for more controllable models.
TTL: Wireless Multiple Flash Shooting in TTL Auto Flash Mode
Set the flash groups (A, B and C) of iT32+X5 (sender unit) as <TTL>, either the same or different FEB value, no need to set the receiver units and they will perform wireless multiple flash shooting in auto flash.

Note: iT32+X5 C has group D.
Control with the Camera's Menu (only available in iT32+X5 C)
If the camera flash is attached to an EOS camera which has a camera control function, the flash can be controlled using the camera's menu screen. The functions that can be set are as follows. The available settings vary depending on the flash mode, wireless flash function settings, and other conditions.
Setting Camera Flash Functions
- Select <Flash control> or <External Speedlite control>.
- Select <Flash function settings> or <External func. setting >.
- The setting screen and items displayed vary depending on the camera.
Note:
- To clear all custom function settings, you can enter the [Clear settings] in step 2 and select [Clear all Speedlite C.Fn's] or [Clear ext. flash C.Fn set.].
- If flash exposure compensation has already been set with the camera flash, flash exposure compensation cannot be set with the camera. To set it with the camera, the camera flash's flash exposure compensation must be set to zero.
- If any flash custom functions and flash settings other than flash exposure compensation have been set by both the camera and the flash, the latest settings will take effect.
Global Shutter Sync Shooting (only available in iT32+X5 S)
By using a combination of iT32+X5 S and a camera equipped with global shutter image sensor, flash photography can be synchronized with the entire range of shutter speeds available on the camera, enabling more effective flash exposures than conventional high-speed sync photography (HSS).
- When iT32+X5 S is used in TTL auto flash mode with a global shutter camera, the flash will be synchronized properly at both low and high shutter speeds. Compared to a non-global shutter camera, with a global shutter camera, the HSS flash time is shorter (about 2-5 milliseconds), the recycle time is faster, and the camera can take more shots.
Flash and Shutter Alignment Debugging Method:
High-speed shutter single-wave flash requires very precise time alignment. The principle is to open the shutter at the best light efficiency of the flash.

Diagram illustrating the relationship between flash light output (A), time (B), shutter speed (C), 1/128 flash light output (D), exposed flash light output (F), and flash start time (G).
Note:
- If the camera shutter speed is set to faster than 1/10000 and photos are taken, the brightness and color may be different.
- For cameras equipped with global shutter image sensors, the HSS icon will not be displayed on the camera regardless of whether high-speed sync is set to [ON]/[OFF].
- When the flash is connected to the camera with a sync cable for shooting, the camera will no longer use global shutter sync, but rather traditional high-speed sync, so the distance the flash light can reach will be shortened.
Sync Triggering
A sync cable or trigger can be inserted here to trigger the flash synchronously.
5. Maintenance
Cleaning
Clean gently with a dry cloth. Do not use a wet cloth as it may damage the device.
Storage
Before storing the device, make sure it is completely cooled down and the power cord (if any) is unplugged, then put it in the protective case or a ventilated dry location.
For products equipped with lithium batteries, charge the battery to about 50% before storage. Charge it to about 50% at least every six months. Failure to perform maintenance charging over an extended period may cause the battery to suffer permanent performance degradation or even become unusable due to excessive discharge. Removable batteries should be stored separately. The storage temperature should be between 0°C and 40°C.
Over-Temperature Protection
- To prevent the flash head from overheating and damage, do not perform rapid continuous flashes exceeding the fixed number of times at 1/1 power, or rapid continuous flashes exceeding 40 times at 1/1 power in high-speed sync.
- If the number of flashes exceeds the recommended times in the table and you continue to flash multiple times, the flash's internal over-temperature protection may be activated, causing the recycle time to exceed 10 seconds. If this occurs, allow the flash to cool down for about 10 minutes, and the flash will return to normal.
- When over-temperature protection is activated, the display will show a thermometer icon.
Continuous Flashes to Activate Over-Temperature Protection
| Power | Number of Flashes |
|---|---|
| 1/1 | 40 |
| 1/2 | 60 |
| 1/4 | 120 |
| 1/8 | 200 |
| 1/16 | 300 |
| 1/32 | 600 |
| 1/64 | 1200 |
| 1/128 | 2000 |

| Power | Number of Flashes |
|---|---|
| 1/1 | 40 |
| 1/2 | 75 |
| 1/4 | 100 |
| 1/8 | |
| 1/16 |
6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter problems, please refer to this troubleshooting guide.
Flash Does Not Fire
- Ensure the flash is securely mounted on the camera's hot shoe.
- If the electronic contacts of the flash and camera are dirty, wipe them with a dry cloth.
- If the flash ready icon or HSS icon does not appear in the camera viewfinder, wait for the flash to recycle completely, and the flash ready indicator will light up.
- If the flash ready indicator does not light up after a long time, check if the battery has power. If the battery level is low, replace the battery or charge it promptly.
Power Automatically Shuts Down
- When the flash is in Wi-Off mode/Sender mode, if standby is enabled and there is no operation for more than 90 seconds, the flash will enter sleep mode. Press the shutter button halfway or any button on the body to wake up the flash.
- When the flash is in Wi-Off mode/Sender mode, if auto power off is enabled and there is no operation for more than 60 minutes (or 30 minutes, 90 minutes), the flash will automatically shut down. Please restart the flash.
- When the flash is in Receiver mode, if auto power off is enabled and there is no operation for more than 60 minutes (or 30 minutes, 90 minutes), the flash will automatically shut down. Please restart the flash.
Flash Exposure is Insufficient or Excessive
- When using high-speed sync, the effective flash range is smaller, so ensure the subject is within the effective flash range.
- If the main subject is too dark or too bright, adjust the appropriate flash exposure compensation.
Buttons or Touch Screen Do Not Respond
- If the device software malfunctions, simultaneously press the -/+ and MENU buttons to force a shutdown, then restart to check if it is normal.
Godox 2.4G Wireless Flash Misfire Reasons and Solutions
- External environmental interference (e.g., wireless base stations, 2.4G WiFi routers, Bluetooth devices, etc.)
