7. Choosing the right mode 
To select a mode, press the 
MODE/OK button. The 
available modes will appear 
across the top of the display, 
with the current mode 
highlighted. The full name of 
the current mode will also 
appear in the center of the 
display. Use the Left (-) Å and 
Right (+) Æ arrow buttons to 
Highlight the mode you want. 
Then press the MODE/OK or SET 
buttons to select the mode and exit. 
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.
