If Optical AWL or Optical/radio AWL
is selected for Flash control >
Wireless flash options in the photo
shooting menu (

0 284), choose a

channel for the master flash. If the
remote flash units include an SB-500,
you must choose channel 3, but
otherwise you can choose any channel between 1 and 4.

3

f: Set the channel (optical AWL only).
Set the remote flash units to the channel selected in Step 2.

4

f: Group the remote flash units.
Optical AWL
Choose a group (A, B, or C, or if you are using an SB-500
master flash, A or B) for each remote flash unit. Although
there is no limit on the number of remote flash units that may
be used, the practical maximum is three per group. With
more than this number, the light emitted by the remote flash
units will interfere with performance.

Radio AWL
Choose a group (A–F) for each of the remote flash units. The
master flash can control up to 18 flash units in any
combination.
