Two basic things you have to do. First, with the flash on, hold down the 'Light' button for 2 seconds. It will change to say Slave 1 or Slave 2. You must set it to slave 2 by pressing the s (select) button. Then press the 'Light' button to save.
Next you need to set the power switch to the middle position. The power light will blink to show it is ready. It should then trigger from another flash. You can set manual or Automatic mode at this point. -- Best regards, Bruce Thursday, May 18, 2006, 10:48:58 PM, you wrote: LA> Jack, LA> I thought it was possible too, but I can't seem to find how to trigger LA> it as a standard slave.
