2. mecalux-SLAVE function with preflash sup-

pression:

This SLAVE mode is especially suitable for digital

cameras with a measuring preflash function: Various

digital camera models fire a measuring preflash frac-

tions of a second before the actual shot. To ensure

that the mecablitz is not triggered as a result of this

preflash, the SLAVE function selector ቮ must be set

to position 2 so that the mecablitz will only be trigge-

red by the main flash. Light control is performed on

the SLAVE flash unit depending on the setting of the

operating mode selector ቧ (auto mode A or manual

mode M; for details see „mecalux-SLAVE function“).

Activating the mecalux-SLAVE mode with preflash

suppression:

• 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 2 (see fig.

10). The SLAVE indicator ባ on the mecablitz will light up

and at one second intervals it will be interrupted by two

brief pauses (SLAVE indicator 2 is briefly turned off twi-

ce).

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

ting mode selector ቧ on the SLAVE unit.

• Activate the controller mounted on the camera. Set flash

synch speed or a slower shutter speed on the camera.

NOTE: The SLAVE unit only reacts to light pul-

ses from the controlling master within a speci-

fic period (fractions of a second). This makes

the mecablitz almost insensible to flashes from

other photographers who are not working with

the measuring preflash method.

3. SLAVE function with cordless Metz remote

system

This SLAVE mode is exclusively intended for the cord-

less Metz remote system. The controlling master

flash unit on the camera must support the cordless

Metz remote system (only mecablitz 40 MZ-.., 50

MZ-5, 54 MZ-3, 70 MZ-..) and be set to the corre-

sponding operating mode (see the operating instruc-

tions for the given controller). The light output is con-

trolled by the camera (Metz TTL remote system) or by

a sensor integrated in the controller (Metz automatic

remote system). The position of the operating mode

selector ቧ on the mecablitz is irrelevant.
