Hi everyone. I just received this flash trigger/receiver set and the units seem functional; When I take a picture, the LED's on the receivers light up, but the flash doesn't fire. Is there anything special I need to do or is this flash not compatible with those receivers? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Did you try setting the set to W position for wireless?
Also without the Transmitter on the camera, try to just trigger the flash.

The flash works and the triggers work, but not together.

I am talking about setting this switch to W on the CTR-301P.
If everything else fails, why not contact the maker of CTR-301P?

I bought these and found out that they don't work with my flash. I used an Olympus Fl36 and I think the trigger voltage of that flash is too high. I then bought 2 Vivitar 285HV and they work like a charm. I'd email the vendor. Good luck.

For everyone scratching their heads and looking for a solution... Make sure you use fresh batteries or your rechargeables are fully charged IN YOUR FLASH!
