 Adjusts how Speedlites will respond to the AC3 or ControlTL Transmitter with no AC3. Set to "Normal E-TTL" or "Normal i-TTL" to have remote E-TTL/i-TTL flashes respond to ControlTL or TTL changes normally. Set to "No Change (Trigger Only)" and this transmitting radio will not change the light level put out by remote Speedlights - the remote Speedlite will trigger at the last level set.

	This mode enables the use of a Speedlite that lacks Master Mode in the shoe of a ControlTL transmitter to trigger remote flashes. The transmitter tells the camera that Master Mode is active even though that mode is not available or set in the flash. All TTL remotes will operate as one zone of light when used this way.
