I have 2 of these units YN622N by Yongnuo to use with the Yongnuo 568EX flash. I should like to use 1 fixed to the camera Nikon D5100 and fire the other a short distance away on its stand.
I have been unable to link them to operate to flash off camera. I have tried setting the channels to the same 1 and A but no luck. The only way I can fire remotely
is using the camera flash and that fires the other receiver/flash. What am I doing wrong with the settings? Please give me a clue!
I think Each Flash must be on a different Channel or different group. I may be completely wrong, are batteries good, read manual too. Not really sure myself. Let me know if you figure it out, I was looking at these Yongnuo Flash and trigger units too.
Hold your Mode button down for about two seconds to initiate the wireless. You will have two selections at this point make sure you are using the 622 selection

It might be that the 568 is on optical trigger and not wireless trigger. Make sure the 568 shows the little "wifi" symbol on the LCD. Keep hitting the mode button until it toggles to the wifi symbol.
Many thanks for your replies to the problems I am having using the Yongnuo YN568 with two transmitters. I now have the system working.
New batteries in the YN 568 has helped but I think the connection of the receiver on to the stand was not good enough. Removed and screwed tightly on to the stand. The symbol on the back of the YN568 bottom left is the one showing Camera set-top trigger not the wireless trigger as I would expect. I am using both transmitter and receiver set on group C and channel 2 which is what is indicated in the window of 568 so I hope this will continue to operate properly on those settings. Thanks for your assistance in this.
