No, at least not the same way. The PW module for the 358 is all internal to the meter. You just have to use a different approach with other triggers. There are modes on the 358 to facilitate this.

I bought an extra transmitter and use it when setting my lights. Press the meter switch on the L-358, trip the lights with the remote, take the reading. Quite simple really.

Hi Dave
Would you please be a little more specific on how to trigger the flash when pressing the meter switch on the L358 with the remote.
Thanks

You could also plug the trigger into the PC port on the meter...
