These flash units can be set in 2 groups (RMT and RMT2).
Any combination of HVL-F58AM, HVL-F43AM and HVL-F42AM can be used in the
[RMT] group. HVL-F58AM or HVL-F43AM set to [CTRL1] (CTRL+ on the LCD
display) can be used in the [RMT2] group.
HVL-F42AM being used as an off-camera flash is recognized as the [RMT] group.
When using HVL-F42AM as an off-camera flash in 3-group wireless flash
photography, use HVL-F58AM or HVL-F43AM as the other off-camera flash which
can be set to [RMT2].
When using a DSLR-A900 or DSLR-A850 camera, you can use an HVL-F56AM and/

([CTRL] on the LCD display). In this mode, the HVL-F56AM and/or HVL-F36AM
are in the [RMT] group, and you can control the lighting ratio of up to 2 groups using a
HVL-F43AM or HVL-F58AM as a controller. For details on setting the controller
mode, see [C03] in “Custom settings” (page 66).
The whole power level ratio is displayed using the flash-range/multiple-flash
frequency/flash-ratio display on the LCD panel for the wireless flash photography with
the lighting ratio control.
