Controller Setting - Metz SCA 3083-M2 digital Manual

The sensor integrated into the controller doses the
light emission of the controller and slave flash units
in automatic flash mode. When several slave flash
units are involved, then the light dosage covers all
flash units within the remote set-up.

8.3 Controller setting

A mecablitz suitable for controller operation (e.g.
40 MZ-..., 50 MZ-5, 54 MZ-3/4, 70 MZ-...) is fitted
with an SCA adapter or the 301 standard foot and
mounted on the camera.
Please refer to the mecablitz instructions for the
setting procedure of the controller and the appro-
priate Metz remote mode. The functions provided
in the controller mode depend on the camera
system and the SCA adapter used.
When the modelling light function (ML func-
tion) is activated on the mecablitz 54 MZ-3/4
and 70 MZ-..., a modelling light lasting several
seconds is emitted by the controller when the
manual firing button (test button) is depressed.
The modelling light function must not be
activated if only a brief initialising or test flash
is to be fired with the manual firing button. If
necessary, deactivate the modelling light func-
tion on the controller (see mecablitz operating
instructions).
