• Set camera to “WL” mode

Instructions: If the flash unit does not switch to “CTRL ”, but to “SLAVE” instead, then the camera does not support the controller function of the external flash
unit.
Setting remote mode:
The remote mode „CTRL “ supports the slave groups RMT and RMT 2 and the controller function M (Master). The selection of the settings for these functions is
made with the "Para" key. To do so, press the “Para” key repeatedly until the symbol for the desired function is displayed. The desired mode can now be set
with the “Mode” key. The setting is immediately effective and automatically saved. The light conditions in the remote system can then also be set (see “General”).
