Wireless flash

This flash is compatible with the Olympus wireless RC flash system.
Using the electronic flash with an Olympus digital camera that is also
compatible with this system, gives you wireless remote control over
the flash emission. The flash mode and other controls are set on the
camera and it controls the electronic flash automatically.
You can also combine several flashes to create a multiple flash array.
To find out if your camera is compatible with this system, refer to the
camera’s instruction manual.

In wireless photography mode, the camera controls the electronic flash
through a light communication system with the camera’s built-in flash.
Adjust the following settings on the camera and the electronic flash in
advance.

RC mode:

This is the wireless mode. Set both the camera and the electronic
flash to RC mode.

Channel:

Changes the channel so the camera will not receive mistaken
signals from other Olympus wireless RC flash systems operating
nearby. Select a channel between 1 and 4 and set the same
channel on the camera and the electronic flash.

Group:

You can control remotely up to three groups (A, B, C) of flash
arrays with different flash modes and other settings. On the
electronic flash set in advance the group with which the flash will be
emitted.
