Guess what! I found a male-to-male 3.5mm cable
!!
So ...
Quote: V6II ....................... => V6/V6II on sync port (not tested)
is 'certified' now.
Also I can fire my AD360 and AD200 at the same time with only one V6 receiver: I put the V6 on the AD360 hotshoe, then connect to the AD200 using the 3.5 cable. Both flashes are fired. But the AD200 is by far the most interesting flash for HSS, because you can control power remotely with HSS on, contrary to the AD360.
Originally posted by Class A BTW, I wrote "V6(II?)" with a "?" because I'm not entirely sure whether a V6 would be sufficient in the receiver roles that are needed. I know that it can definitely handle a "Power Sync" configuration, and that it can definitely not control an attached HSS-capable flash, but it might be able to fire a flash like the AD200 that can be set to HSS mode manually. A V6II receiver would definitely be able to do that, but a V6 receiver would be cheaper.
For me, one advantage of using V6 receivers could be that you can control HSS groups easily. You still need a FT16/XT16/XT32 at hand to control power, of course. The best solution should be that Godox developed a P-TTL compatible trigger but...
Another 'curious' experiment:
V6II + XT32C on top
V6 (Rx) on AD200's sync port, wireless mode ON, HSS ON (sync port works regardless wireless is ON or OFF)
Cactus configured on group A
So now, if you fire the camera, the AD200 receives the V6 (Rx) signal on the sync port and the signal from the XT32, but it seems to prioritize the sync port, so the XT32 is ignored and you fire the AD200 with HSS.
But, if I disable the group 'A', then the XT32 is the only one firing the AD200 and using normal pulses (because with wireless mode on, HSS does not work). Obviously if you are above 1/180 you will get a black picture, but it's a way to choose HSS from the camera side. That is: 'A' group enabled, HSS pulses; 'A' group disabled, normal pulses.
Can it be useful ? I don't know, but was funny
