Note:

The default setting of this function is t2, which means the flash will be triggered

after 2 seconds of preflashes. When using multiple speedlites with different preflash
frequencies, this mode will group all the flashes as one before firing.

To exit the Time Frame function menu, press and hold the slave button for
approximately 4 seconds until the flash power setting appears on the screen, or
slightly move the adjustment dial.

Block Time

The Block Time function allows for a variable of 1 to 18 milliseconds for the
studio flash to ignore master preflashes. In this mode, your monolight will begin
to record and learn to recognize your device’s preflashes. This is to compensate
for the different preflash timing between devices. To use this function, refer to
the following instructions:

1. Press and hold the slave button for 8 seconds.
2. Press the slave button again.
3. Use the or modeling light output buttons to select your required setting.
Use the following chart as a reference for this function’s settings:
