Wireless Control Function
The flash unit is built with a Wireless Control Port so that you can
wirelessly adjust the power level of the flash and the flash triggering.
To control the flash wirelessly, you need a CL-Tx/Rx remote control set (on-
camera and on-flash). Insert its receive end into the Wireless Control Port
on the flash and insert the transmit end into the camera hot shoe. Settings
made on the hotshoe-mounted transmit and receive ends will be wirelessly
communicated to the flash. Then you can press the camera shutter
release button to trigger the flash. You can also hold the transmit end at
hand to control your off-camera flash.
For full instructions on the use of CL-Tx/Rx remote control, see its
user manual.
Modeling Flash
If the camera has a depth-of-field preview button, pressing it will fire the flash continuously for 1 second. This is
called modeling flash.
It enables you to see the shadow effects on the subject and the lighting balance. You can fire the modeling flash
during wireless or normal flash shooting.
●
To avoid overheating and deteriorating the flash head, do not fire the modeling flash for more than 10 consecutive
times. If you fire the modeling flash 10 consecutive times, allow at least 10 minutes’ break for the camera flash.
●
The modeling flash cannot be fired with the EOS 300 and Type-B cameras.
Auto Focus Assist Beam
In poorly-lit or low-contrast shooting environments, the built-in auto focus assist beam will automatically light on to
make it easier for autofocus. The beam will light up only when autofocus is difficult and get out as soon as the
autofocus becomes correct.
If you want to turn off the auto focus assist beam, set the “AF” to “OFF” on the C.Fn settings.
If you find the auto focus assist beam does not light up, this is because the camera has got a correct autofocus.
Other Applications
Assist Beam Setting
The flash has two ways to light on the assist beam: auto focus (AF) and manual focus (MF). Press Function Button
1 (MF/C.Fn) to choose.
Auto focus (AF):
The assist beam is lighted on by camera.
Manual focus (MF):
The assist beam is lighted on manually.
Turn off the assist beam:
Set "AF" to OFF on the C.Fn menu, and the assist beam will be turned off.

Wireless shooting using radio transmission has advantages over wireless shooting using optic transmission, such
as being less affected by obstacles, and not having to point the slave unit's wireless sensor toward the master unit.
The main functional differences are as follows:
Wireless Flash Shooting: Radio (2.4G) Transmission
Wireless Multiple Flash Shooting
You can divide the slave units into two or three groups and perform E-TTL II/E-TTL autoflash while changing the
flash ratio (factor). In addition, you can set and shoot with a different flash mode for each firing group, for up to 3
groups.
