Pyxis and DJI Focus Pro

PostSun Mar 09, 2025 10:00 pm

Connected via bluetooth, I am able to record using the record button on the DJI Focus Pro Grip until I go to play a clip on the Pyxis. When I am ready to record again the grip button no longer triggers recording to the Pyxis. Does anyone know how to resolve this?

I think you have to hit record on the Pyxis a few times to get back to the correct screen after previewing a file.

I just tested this. You must exit the clip review screen and go back to the main recording screen. To do this, you press the <record> button on the camera, just as you would to exit the setting menus.

Interesting, I tried this method and it still does not work for me. I can record however much I want via the Focus Grip Pro but as soon as I play a clip I am no longer able to trigger recording using the red DJI grip button unless I power the camera off and back on again. I am connected to the Pyxis via bluetooth.

Did you make sure both your Focus Pro grip and your Pyxis have the latest firmware? I know I'm up to date.

That was the ticket, thanks! I didn't realize there was a newer update beyond 9.2. The 9.2.1 firmware has resolved the problem.
