7. Remote mode
General
In the remote mode, additional flash units (slaves) are
fired under the cordless control of the master flash unit
(controller) mounted on the camera. The controller
extends TTL automatic exposure control to all slaves.
The Metz TTL remote mode enables joint cordless TTL
flash control of several flash units of the types 54 MZ-3,
34 CS-2, 40 MZ-.., 50 MZ-5 and 70 MZ-... For this mode
all additional 54 MZ-3 and 70 MZ-4 flash units (slaves)
must be fitted with an SCA 3082 slave adapter (optional
extra), and all 40 MZ-.. slaves with the SCA 3080 or
3082 slave adapter. The slave flash units can be moun-
ted on the foot supplied with the slave adapter or on a
tripod.
The slave flash units 34 CS-2, 50 MZ-5 Slave and 70
MZ-5 do not require a slave adapter.
The LC display of the mecablitz does not indica-
te the maximum flash range when in remote
mode. The secondary reflector of the mecablitz
must be switched off!
To ensure that two TTL remote systems in neighbouring
rooms do not interfere with each other, two different
addresses - Ad1 and Ad 2 - can be selected on the con-
troller (master) and the slave unit.
