Remote Manual Mode for Canon Speedlites

This mode allows you to remotely control the manual settings of Canon Speedlites. Canon calls this mode “Setting the Flash

Output for Each Slave” or “Wireless Manual Flash with Varied Flash Output.”

This mode works with the 580EX II on the top shoe of a ControlTL transmitter. It does not work with the original 580EX.

Only the 580EX II has the command codes to use Remote Manual Mode via the hot shoe.

With a 580EX II on the top shoe of the transmitter, engage manual + Master mode normally:

1. Press MODE until M appears.

2. Engage MASTER by pressing and holding ZOOM for 2 seconds. When “OFF” blinks, spin the select dial

until MASTER appears and press SET.

3. You can now use the manual controls of the 580EX II to set the manual ﬂash level of your remote Speedlites.

To manually control more than one “zone” of light, you need to select RATIO mode by pressing ZOOM until RATIO

blinks, then spin the wheel until either A:B or A:B:C blinks and press SET. Set the remote FlexTT5-mounted

Speedlites to normal mode (not SLAVE or MASTER, just ETTL), and select the slave group using the FlexTT5 ABC

switch. You may have as many ﬂashes in each group (A, B & C) as you would like. On the MASTER ﬂash, use the

select dial and SET to choose the slave group and set the manual remote ﬂash value. See Page 45 of the

Canon 580EX II User Manual for more information.

This mode expands Canon’s system. Normally when using Canon’s optical system, and not using Ratio A:B or A:B:C mode,

all 3 slave groups would be triggered. This can be undesirable because you might want to have ﬂashes on groups B or C not

trigger for some photos, but trigger for others. Via ControlTL, you have more control over which slave groups are triggered

while still utilizing Canon’s controls on the 580EX II intuitively:

• Ifyouhavenoslavegroupsselected(youarenotusingRatioA:BorA:B:C)thenonlyslavegroupAwilltrigger.Remote

FlexTT5 units set to B or C will not trigger but will be available for you to include them in other photos if you choose Ratio

mode A:B or A:B:C.

•IfyouhaveRatioA:BselectedthenonlyAandBwilltrigger.Cwillnot.

•IfyouhaveRatioA:B:Cselectedthanallthreeslavegroupswilltrigger.

NOTE: A lot of information moves around for remote manual mode to function. Whenever possible, make sure to hold the

shutter release of your camera half-pressed for a moment to allow all of the data to transmit. You must remove the 580EX II

from the shoe of the FlexTT5 before enabling MASTER mode.
