The bleep function acoustically indicates the following:
• Flash readiness
• Correct flash exposure
• Automatic shut-off of the flash
• Incorrect operation
Acoustic signal after the mecablitz has been switched on:
• A brief (approx. 2 sec.) uninterrupted bleep signal after the mecablitz has
been switched on indicates flash readiness.
Bleep signals after exposure:
• A brief (approx. 3 sec.) uninterrupted bleep signal immediately after shoot-
ing indicates that exposure was correct and that flash readiness continues.
If there is no bleep signal immediately after shooting the picture was un-
derexposed.
• An intermittent bleep signal immediately after shooting confirms correct
flash exposure, but flash readiness will only be re-established after a sub-
sequent (3 sec.) continuous bleep.
Bleep signals associated with settings in „A" automatic mode:

• A short bleep as an acoustic alarm is generated in the auto flash mode of
the mecablitz if the selected aperture and ISO setting exceed the permiss-
ible light control range. The auto aperture of the mecablitz is then automa-
tically adjusted to the next permissible value.

pear on the LC display of the mecablitz. Push the setting disk briefly in the
direction of the arrow to store this setting. The selected setting is automati-
cally stored after 5 seconds if the setting disk is not pushed.

12.2 Locking and unlocking the controls (key function)

(not possible with 70 MZ-4)
The key function locks the Mode and Select buttons, as well as the setting
disk, from inadvertent resetting.
To lock the Mode and Select buttons press them simultaneously for approx.
3 seconds until the
key icon appears on the display.
To unlock the Mode and Select buttons press them simultaneously for approx.
3 seconds until the
key icon disappears from the display.
12.3 REAR – Second curtain synchronisation
Second curtain synchronization (REAR) is particularly advantageous when
using slow shutter speeds (slower than 1/30 s) or when shooting moving ob-
jects that have their own source of light. Second curtain synchronisation gives
a more realistic impression of movement because the light streaks behind the
light source instead of building up in front of the source, as is the case when
the flash is synchronised with the 1st shutter curtain.
The REAR function can only be used if the mecablitz is fitted with an
appropriate SCA adapter and is mounted on a camera that supports
this function. The camera must be switched on to select and set this
function. The camera's shutter release must be briefly touched at least
once so that the corresponding data can be exchanged between the
camera and the mecablitz and the attached SCA adapter.
Please refer to the respective operating instructions to find out whether or not
the camera and the SCA adapter support the REAR function.
On some cameras the REAR function is not possible in certain operating
modes so that it cannot be selected. It will then be automatically deleted.
Please refer to the respective operating instructions for the given camera and
the SCA adapter!
