Menu navigation / setting the functions

All settings on the LEICASF 58 are made via the menus and with help of the

four buttons 1.13, 1.14, 1.15 and 1.16 below the monitor (1.11). These buttons

assume different functions with different setting steps.

Their respective functions are always shown on the monitor, directly above the

individual buttons. In the starting position, after switching on the flash unit,

these are:

– (1.13): Operating mode menu

– (1.14): Exposure parameter menu

– (1.15): Basic settings menu

– „ “ (1.16): Hand release (for test flash)

Operating mode menu

After calling the menu by pressing the button

twice (first step), the list of

flash operating modes available appears on the monitor, and the one activated is

identified by a black bar.

Simultaneously, the buttons change their function:

(1.13), (1.14):

to select the operating modes in the list (second step)

Note:

The list is not an “endless loop”, i.e. at the highest item, only the but-

ton can be used, at the lowest, only .

(1.15), (1.16): to confirm and activate the selected operating mode

(third step, both buttons can be used)

The display on the monitor returns to the starting

position.
