.c Slave mode
In slave mode (SL) the flash is triggered by the light sensor (9),
placed inside the reflector. This sensor is very sensitive and
allows the unit to work also with a certain distance between the
main flash and the slave flash. Select the power required with
the MAN selector (2).

d. Dual flash operation with digital cameras
There are different ways of operating two strobes with a digital
camera. It is very important to note the information below to
achieve perfect functionality without damaging your camera.
Please read the following information very carefully!
IMPORTANT - FOR CANON USERS
E-TTL use with CANON cameras requires S6 sockets on the
flash and the camera. (with all the 6 wires connected to both
strobes). Set both units to TTL mode. When the unit is
connected to the camera, it automatically detects the camera
transmission protocol. This is an easy method of using two
flash devices in E-TTL or in manual mode.
If you want to shoot only one flash, just switch off the unused
flash device.
