12. Working with user programs

If, for example, the operating mode is changed after a stored program has been
called, the LC display switches to „Prog.0“. But the unchanged parameters of the
previously loaded program place are retained.

The factory-set flash programs can be overwritten if you wish to store your own
flash programs. Five stickers, included with the flashgun, can be inscribed as a
memo when storing your own program places.

Procedure for storing a program:

• Select the required settings (aperture, zoom, operating mode, etc.) for sub-

sequent application.

• Press the Prog. button

ቩ; Prog. flashes.

• Use the „+“ or „-“ button

ቪ to select the program place Prog. ? where the set-

tings are to be stored.

• Hold the Remote (STO) key

ብ for abt. 3 seconds depressed until the STO and

RCL symbols go out. The settings are stored after the STO and RCL symbols
have gone out.

The last settings made on program place 0 are retained when the
flashgun is switched off. These settings are reactivated when the
flashgun is switched on again, provided that the batteries were not
removed from the flashgun.
