There are two soft keys in this menu, OFF and PRGM MODE
OFF – This will prevent the flash from firing. Use this if you want to turn off the light from the
on camera flash, but still want any remotes you are using to fire when the shutter is pressed.
PRGM MODE - Pressing this button will bring you into the program mode. In the program
mode you can store up to eight of your favorite settings. You can easily jump between any of
these eight settings for quick lighting set ups.
Below is a description of each mode and it’s operation. This will aid you in choosing the mode
that is best for the desired lighting .

QTTL mode uses the exposure system built into the camera. You may offset exposure by 2
stops above or 3 stops below camera setting.
Use this mode if you want the camera to control the exposure
Radio: Can be set to send a SYNC signal to fire remote flashes. Each remote flash controls
it’s own exposure.
Or it can be set to send a QTTL signal to remote Qflashes.
Positives
: Simplest of all the QTTL mode while still being able to fire and/or control remote
flashes, such as power packs used for room lights

as the local flash.
