Post subject:  Cyber Commander ??? again...

Forgive me,
I do not understand what is being stated here...
"Cyber Commander will also automatically compensate for lights with different Watt-Second (WS) ratings and modeling lamp wattages, so you always see dead-accurate “what-you-see-is-what-you-get” (WYSIWYG) previews that are proportionate to flash power."

I presently have 2 AB 400, 2 AB 800, and I have 2 E640 on order. I do understand what 'setting a modeling light proportional to the flash' means but I haven't got a clue what the CC's function has to do with it all.

Is the above statement simply explaining that when using the CC to adjust power levels, of each connected flash unit's flash out put, the CC will maintain the set modeling light:flash ratio while doing so? Am I missing something?
Thanks,
Paul

Short answer: CC allows you to set the modeling lamps to track the flash, but you can dial in an offset so each light produces the same ratio of modeling watts vs flash WS, even though the lights may have different wattage lamps and different ws ratings.
