6) Press the Measuring/OK button E. The (B icon will blink for 90 seconds and
the meter will enter the measurement standby mode.
7) While the Æ icon is blinking, manually trigger the flash. A measurement will
be taken and the measured/indicated values will be displayed.
(Note )
@If the flash output power is too weak compared to the surrounding light, the meter may not detect the
flash output. In this case, use the "Cord Flash Mode" (See P21).
@ Pulsed light sources such as fluorescent lights or special lighting could cause the meter to take
cordless flash measurements (in rare cases). The resulting reading will be incorrect. In these situations
it is recommended to take a measurement in "Cord Flash Mode" with a sync cord attached to the
meter and flash. (See P21).
@If there is a sudden, bright change in lighting intensity, the meter may mistakenly take a
measurement. To avoid this, use the "Cord Flash Mode" (See P21).
@Because the light radiated from a flash bulb gradually builds, the meter will not detect the light when
used in Cordless Flash Mode. Be sure to use the "Cord Flash Mode" (See P21) in this case.
@When using the meter in Cordless Flash Mode, it is possible to mount the meter to a light stand,
tripod or similar support using the 1/4-20 female threads located on the bottom of the meter.
@If the light source illumination is too bright or not bright enough, or if color temperature is out of the
measurement range, when the Measuring/OK button
Mis pressed, [0, Quer] or (Lt, Under] will
blink to indicate that measurements cannot be made. In this case, adjust the brightness or color
temperature, or switch the flash measurement range (See P28)
@ If you need to compensate the indicated value on LCD screen, you can recall saved preset White
Balance/Color Compensation and apply those settings to the indicated values.
