10.2 Remote slave flash mode

The flash unit supports Olympus`s wireless
E TTL Remote System in slave flash mode.
At the same time, one or more slave flash
units can be remotely controlled from one
master flash unit on the camera
(e.g. mecablitz 52 AF-1 O digital).
A slave flash unit can be assigned to one of
three possible slave groups (GROUP A, B or
C). The master flash unit can control all of
these slave groups simultaneously and at the
same time take the settings for each slave
group into account.

So that multiple remote systems in the same
room do not interfere with one another,
there are four independent remote channels
available (CH 1, 2, 3 or 4).

Master and slave flash units belonging to the
same remote system must be set to the same
remote channel.

The slave flash units must be able to receive
the light from the master flash unit with the
integrated sensors for the remote mode.

Depending on the camera model, the came-
ra’s internal flash unit can also function as
master flash unit. Please consult the respec-
tive camera operating instructions for further
tips on setting the master flash unit.

Thereafter, the flash unit always switches

the touch display as many times as it takes
