  You connect it to the sync cord outlet or to the hotshoe. It has an auto setting that you set it to, it also has a film speed scale that you set to the speed film that you're using. And there's a f/stop scale you set that you want to use.
You put the camera on manual, with it at the sync speed, and the f/stop you want to use. The sensor on the flash will adjust flash output based on how it reads the scene.
