User manual QUANTUM QFLASH TTL ADAPTER

[. . . ] While powerful and extremely versatile, Qflash operation is intuitive and straightforward. Advanced features for most every lighting need can be accessed or ignored as needed. We highly recommend reading this entire instruction manual. Whether or not you require all of Qflash's capability now, you will want to know it exists when the need arises. [. . . ] 7. 1 Wired Control Mode using only Qflash 4d's Qflashes are connected with cables such as QF50 for the Wired Control mode. Linked mode is available when the Control Qflash is set to Auto mode. Even more lighting versatility becomes available when a D series QTTL adapter is connected to a camera. Then Auto mode is replaced by "AFIL" (Auto Fill) mode, and in addition to a Linked ratio between Control and Remote Qflashes, a flash/fill ratio can be set between the camera and the Control Qflash. When desiring camera control of exposure using a D series adapter, QTTL mode replaces TTL mode. The QTTL mode does not provide the Linked ratio of Auto or Auto Fill modes, however it lets the camera control flash exposure. The sections that follow explain in detail how to use multiple Qflashes in Wired Mode. 7. 1. 1 Setting the Wired mode and the Control flash The diagram shows a set up for Wired Control. The Qflash displays will prompt you to select the Control flash. 18 Press the Mode I button on the Qflash that you want to be the Control Qflash (usually the one at the camera). The display for this Qflash will change to `Wired Control', and display the data for Remote 1 (R1) and Remote 2 (R2). The displays of the two Remote Qflashes will automatically change to R1 and R2. To change which Qflash is Remote 1 and 2 see Section 7. 5. To designate another Qflash to be the Control, press Set G on the Control flash. Use the Up/Down J L buttons until "R1" or "R2" blinks. Press Set G again and the mode of R1 or R2 will blink. Use the Up/Down J L buttons to change the mode of the Remote. The modes available are Man, Auto, TTL, and OFF. If the Control Qflash is in Auto mode then Linked mode replaces TTL mode. Press Set G again to set the parameters for the mode selected. The parameters to set depend on the mode. Linked mode (available when the Control Qflash is in Auto or Auto Fill Mode) sets a Linked ratio for Remotes 1 & 2. If both R1 and R2 are set to Linked mode, the ratio will appear next to R1 only, although this ratio is for both flashes. 7. 1. 4 Changing the designation for Remote 1 and Remote 2 You may wish to change which Remote flash is designated R1 and which is R2. This can only be done at one of the Remote Qflashes. [. . . ] Next use the options button on the Fill flash (see Section 5. 9). Adjust the Linked ratio for the difference between Fill flash and the cameras aperture. If the camera is set for F8. 0, and the Fill is set for F5. 6, the Linked ratio needs to be set to +1 ( the camera is one stop higher than the Fill) 36 10. 5 Lighting ratios using a control cable This set up is similar to the wireless one above. The only difference is that a Qflash 4d is not used in the Main position. [. . . ]
