Controller: Minolta flash units 5400xi / 5400HS /
3600HS(D) / 5600HS(D) or Minolta Wireless Flash
Controller
One of four remote addresses can be manually
preselected. Please refer to the corresponding
Minolta operating instructions to set the controller
mode for the Minolta flash unit and to select the
remote address.
Initialising and testing the remote mode:
Switch on the camera and controller or fold out the
camera's built-in flash. Await the flash readiness
signal of the controller or camera's flash unit. Fire a
remote test flash with the SPOT or AEL button on
the camera.
Warning:
On some cameras the flash button must be simul-
taneously kept depressed (refer to the operating
instructions for the given camera). The slave flash
unit (mecablitz with SCA 3302 adapter) learns the
number of the remote channel through this remote
test flash. If the flash set-up is working properly,
then the slave flash unit will respond by firing a
brief flash. "SL", together with the number of the
remote channel, e.g. "SL1", is indicated on the dis-
play of the flash unit.
The slave flash unit must be ready for firing
during the initialising procedure.
If the slave flash unit does not respond, then switch
it off briefly, re-align the sensor of the SCA 3302
adapter so that it recognises the controlling pulses
of the controller. Finally, repeat the initialising pro-
cedure.
