9.3 Remote slave flash mode

The flash unit supports the wireless Pentax
P TTL remote system.

At the same time, one or more slave flash
units can be remotely controlled from one
master flash unit on the camera (e.g. meca-
blitz 52AF-1P digital).

So that multiple remote systems in the same
room do not interfere with one another, there
are four independent remote channels avai-
lable (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.
