The flash output is adjustable from 1/1 full power to 1/128th power

Flash Output Range
The following table makes it easier to see how the stop changes in
terms of f/stop when you increase or decrease the flash output. For
example, when you decrease the flash output to 1/2, 1/2-0.3, or 1/2-
0.7, and then increase the flash output to more than 1/2, 1/2+0.3,
1/2+0.7, and 1/1 will be displayed.
Optic S1 Secondary Unit Setting
In M manual flash mode, press < S1/S2 > button so that this flash can
function as an optic S1 secondary flash with optic sensor. With this
function, the flash will fire synchronously when the main flash fires,
the same effect as that by the use of radio triggers. This helps create
multiple lighting effects.
Optic S2 Secondary Unit Setting
Press < S1/S2 > button so that this flash can also function as an optic
S2 secondary flash with optic sensor in M manual flash mode. This
is useful when cameras have pre-flash function. With this function,
the flash will ignore a single “preflash” from the main flash and will
only fire in response to the second, actual flash from the main unit.
● S1 and S2 optic triggering and off camera high-speed mode
are only available in M manual flash mode.
Manual Off Camera High-speed Setting
In M manual flash mode, press < > button to select high-speed
mode and is displayed.
SYNC
● If you set a shutter speed as 1/320s (Auto FP) or 1/250s
(Auto FP) in the Nikon camera setting, < > will be
displayed in the flash screen regardless of practical shutter
speed.
● With high-speed sync, the faster the shutter speed, the
shorter the effective flash range.
● To return to normal flash, set the flash sync speed to other
options other than Auto FP. Then the icon < > will
disappear when pressing the shutter halfway.
● Multi flash mode cannot be set in high-speed sync mode.
● Over-temperature protection may be activated after 15
consecutive high-speed sync flashes.
High-Speed Sync
High Speed Sync (FP flash) enables the flash to synchronize with all
camera shutter speeds. This is convenient when you want to use
aperture priority for fill-flash portraits.
Select the high-speed sync icon < >.
Second-Curtain Sync
With a slow shutter speed, you can create a light train following the
subject. The flash fires right before the shutter closes.
● Set the camera to Rear mode
and press the shutter button
halfway, then the flash display
panel will show the second
curtain sync icon < >.
● When the camera is not set to
Rear mode, pressing the shutter
button halfway will not light up
the icon < > on the flash
display panel.
● Set the flash sync speed to
1/320s (Auto FP) or 1/250s
(Auto FP) in the Nikon camera
menu. Press the shutter button
halfway. The icon < >
displayed on the flash screen
means the high speed sync
function is enabled on the flash.
● Turning the camera command
dial can set the shutter speed to
1/250s or faster.
● To check if the FP flash function
works properly, look through the
shutter speed in the viewfinder.
If it shows a speed of 1/250s or
faster, the FP flash function is
on work.
