Turning On the Flash and Firing a Test
To turn the flash on, simply slide the power switch to the On position.
When the flash is ready to fire, the Ready light will glow red. If the flash is mounted on your
camera, a flash icon will also appear in the camera’s viewfinder.
To fire a test flash, press the Ready light / Test button.
Automatic power-saving function:
After 3 minutes of inactivity, the flash will automatically enter
power-saving mode to conserve battery life. The LCD will display a single OFF indicator, and the
Ready light will turn off. To reactivate the VS-570F, simply press any button on the control panel, or
tap your camera’s shutter-release button. During long periods of inactivity, it is recommended that
you use the power switch to turn the flash off completely.
LCD illumination:
When a button is pressed, the LCD will be illuminated for about 5 seconds.
