Transmitted signal effective area
Point the remote control at the remote control receiver of the camera within the effective area
as shown below.

when fluorescent light or devices emitting electrical or radio waves are nearby, it could
narrow the effective area.

lighting. Move the remote control closer to the camera and press the shutter button on the remote
control again.

the remote control closer to the camera and press the shutter button on the remote control again.

control at the same time for at least three seconds until the remote control lamp on the camera
blinks or a beep sound can be heard, indicating that the signal has been received.
