PLUS

USER MANUAL

Thank you for choosing the Vello

FreeWave Plus Wireless Remote Shutter

Release. This device triggers your

camera in either wired or wireless mode,

allowing you to trip the shutter without

disturbing the camera. It’s ideal for taking

pictures of subjects that are dicult

to approach, such as wildlife. It also

eliminates vibrations caused by pressing

your camera’s shutter release button

during macro, close-up, and long-exposure

photography. The four-second delay

function is great for self-portraits.

The FreeWave Plus does

not require line-of-sight

alignment, as its radio

waves pass through and

around objects such as

walls, windows, and ﬂoors.

You can even trigger your

camera around corners.

The FreeWave Plus uses the 2.4GHz

wireless frequency for extended

range and reduced interference.

KEY FEATURES

Set the DIP switch located in the battery

compartment of the Transmitter and

Receiver. The DIP switches set a dierent

radio frequency for each Transmitter/

Receiver pair, so that multiple sets of the

FreeWave Plus can be used simultaneously.

You can use a pen to set the DIP switches

to your desired code. Any combination

will work so long as the switches are set

identically in both the Transmitter and

Receiver of a single FreeWave Plus set. A

total of 6 dierent combinations can be

selected.

Insert 2 AA batteries into both the

Transmitter and Receiver.
