1. mecalux-SLAVE function:

This SLAVE mode is suitable for all cameras that do

not feature a measuring preflash. On cameras with

preflash, the preflash function must be switched off.

Any flash unit (including the camera’s built-in flash)

can be used as a controller.The SLAVE is triggered at

the same time as the controller. Light control is per-

formed by the SLAVE and depends on the setting of

the operating mode selector ቧ (auto mode A or

manual mode M).

Activating the mecalux-SLAVE mode:

• Mount and set up the SLAVE unit in the described man-

ner.

• Turn on the SLAVE unit with the main switch ቤ.

• Set the SLAVE function selector ቮ in Position 1 (see fig.

8). The SLAVE indicator ባ on the mecablitz will become

continuously illuminated (see fig. 9).

• Select auto mode A or manual mode M with the opera-

ting mode selector ቧ on the SLAVE unit.

• Activate the controller on the camera. Set flash synch

speed or a slower shutter speed on the camera.

NOTE: Flash units of other photographers wor-

king within the action radius of the mecablitz

(SLAVE function selector in position 1) can

inadvertently trigger the mecablitz.

Set the operating mode selector ቧ to one of the three auto

working apertures A for autoflash mode A. The auto wor-

king aperture should match the aperture set on the lens or

camera. Take into account the speed of the film (ISO) loa-

ded in the camera or the film speed rating for digital came-

ras (see camera’s operating instructions). For compact

(zoom) cameras without aperture setting facilities select

the widest aperture on the mecablitz (equalling the smal-

lest aperture number; see operating instructions for the

given camera)! The sensor ቯ controls the light output of

the mecablitz when in auto mode.

Set the operating mode selector ቧ to M for manual flash

mode M. When activated the mecablitz will fire a flash at

full light output.With regard to the distance of the flash unit

to the subject and the camera aperture to be set, the same

applies as for the auto mode (see page 54).
