I could have used a bit more coaching there. I ultimately powered off both units and was able to synch them. I'm not sure if the powering off helped? Or if I was just pressing one button wrong. Also, changing channels was a bit tricky for me. I had one unit set to channel 1 and one set to channel 20. I would not have gotten these two devices to work without your tutorial thought.

I have to go to each flash and manually change the intensity. If I go to group, set; =/- it won’t get read by the external flash to change. What am I doing wrong? I’ve reset the 860. And used your video to connect the external flashes back to the 860.

Kyle; I update both the Godox and Mk4 with Godox's and Sony's current firmwate and menus still don't work properly. By corrupted I mean when I press the mode button it fails to cycle through M, TTL, etc., when I press other buttons, it fails to cycle through the options. When I set the Godox in TTL and turn on the camera, the TTL switches to slave mode with no prompting on my part. I recall the Godox worked on my Mk3, but not on the Mk4. I'm guessing the hotshoe interface is different from the 3 to 4, but I'm only guessing.
