3 CoPilot setup

The CoPilot can control the exposure of three Remote Groups (R1, R2, and R3) or two Remote Groups (R1, R2) and a local Qflash T5d-R.

A Remote Group can consist of any flash set up as described in Sections 2.1, 2.2 or 2.3.

3 .1 No Local Qflash T5d-R connected

When no local flash is connected to the CoPilot ACCY connector, up to three remote groups may be set up, each with its own exposure setting.

Each Remote Group has two controls.

RATIO / MANUAL POWER SETTINGS – this sets the exposure mode of the Remote Group. Ratio settings can be set from -2

to +2. Manual

power settings can be set from 1/16- to 1/1. This control also has an OFF position. When set in the OFF position the flash in the Remote Group

will not fire.

MODE switch – this control sets the mode of the Remote Group to M (manual) or TTL

Note : When using a non Quantum flash as a Remote Group set the MODE switch to M. Only a sync signal will be sent to the flash.

3 .2 Local Qflash connected

When a Qflash is connected to the CoPilot ACCY connector, Group R3 becomes the Local ratio control. A Local Qflash may be models QFT5-dR,

QF4Td, QF3d, or QF2d.

Remotes will operate in Groups R1, R2 only.

RATIO / MANUAL POWER SETTINGS – this control adjusts the ratio of the local Qflash when the Qflash is in QTTL mode. Ratio settings can be

set from -2

to +2.

MODE switch – this control is disabled when a Qflash T5d-R is connected to the CoPilot. The MODE button on the local Qflash T5d-R overrides

the mode setting.
