Optical Slave Triggering – S2 Setting
Optical Slave Triggering - S1 Setting
The Optical Slave triggers the XPLOR to fire in tandem at the speed of light, upon
sensing another flash exposure. This helps in creating multiple lighting very simply.
As some flashes have more than one burst, S1 Slave is to be used for non-TTL
strobes producing a single flash for each exposure.
In M manual flash mode, press the <MENU> button to enter C.FN-SLAVE to choose
the S1 function, so that this strobe will fire immediately as a slave, or secondary
flash, when the sensor sees another flash fire. Use this mode to trigger this flash
with another manual flash, and in an area where no others are doing flash
photography as well. It provides the same effect as that by the use of R2 radio
triggers without the TTL exposure link.
Press the <MENU> button to enter C.FN-SLAVE to choose the S2 function, so that
this flash can also function as an optical slave S2, or secondary flash, for master
flashes in TTL mode. They produce a single “pre-flash” that the S2 Slave setting will
ignore and will only fire in response to the second, actual flash exposure, from the
main unit. The S2 slave function provides the same effect as that by the use of R2
radio triggers but without the TTL exposure link. This helps in creating multiple
lighting very simply.
