The entire remote system can be operated by means of either E-TTL or M opera-
ting modes.
Any change to the flash operating mode has to be made on the master in
slave group A. The change made in slave group A then applies to the
whole system, i.e. for slave groups B and C and on master M.
The choice of flash mode (E-TTL or manual "M") for slave group A determines
the flash mode used by the complete remote system.
So that multiple remote systems in the same room do not interfere with one anot-
her, there are four independent remote channels to use. Master and slave flash
units belonging to the same remote system must be set to the same remote chan-
nel. The slave flash units must be able to receive the light from the master flash
unit using the integrated sensor for cordless remote control
.
Remote flash mode also supports second curtain synchronisation. In
remote flash mode, the maximum flash range is not indicated on the flash
unit's display panel.
19.1 Switching the remote flash mode on and off
• Press the "Sel" key repeatedly until "Select" appears on the display.
• Use the UP
and DOWN
keys to select "Remote" from the menu. The
selected menu option will be indicated by a dark bar.
• Press the "Set" key to confirm the selection of "Remote".
• Use the UP
and DOWN
keys to select "Remote Master"
for master
operation, "Remote Slave"
for slave operation, or "Remote OFF" to deacti-
vate remote flash mode. The setting is effective immediately.
• Press "Return"
repeatedly to return the display to its normal reading. If the
"Return"
key is not pressed, the display will switch back to normal auto-
matically after approximately 5 seconds.

19.2 Settings on the master flash unit
Slave groups A and B are always activated. They cannot be deactivated.
The master flash unit M and slave group C can be activated or deactiva-
ted, however. If the master flash unit is deactivated, it only controls the
slave units and does not contribute to exposing the shot
The "Para" key can be used to sequentially access the settings for the master
flash unit M and the slave flash units in groups A, B, and C.

Adjusting the settings for slave group A
• Press the "Para" key repeatedly until "A" (for slave group A) appears on the
LC display.
• While A is displayed, press the "Mode" key repeatedly until TTL (E-TTL remote)
appears in the display next to the A.
• While A TTL is displayed, the (-) and (+) keys can be used to adjust the flash
exposure correction value for the slave flash units in group A, from -3 f-stops
(EV) to +3 f-stops (EV) in 1/3 increments.
• Press "Return"
to save your settings. If the "Return"
key is not pressed,
the settings will be saved automatically after approximately 5 seconds.
Adjusting the settings for slave group B
• Press the "Para" key repeatedly until B TTL (for slave group B) appears on the
LC display.
• While B TTL is displayed, the (-) and (+) keys can be used to adjust the flash
exposure correction value for the slave flash units in group B, from -3 f-stops
(EV) to +3 f-stops (EV) in 1/3 increments.
• Press "Return"
