Just purchased a pair of PW Plus 2's and been trying to set them up to fire my 580ex2 off camera without success, what settings should I use to fire manually, I have tried, setting flash on M, connecting PW's but nothing happens,what am I doing wrong?:confused:

The PC port on the 580EX II is turned off in Manual-Master mode.

Move the camera to Manual-Slave mode and I think you will be fine.

Enjoy! Lon
