SEF580A with NX1

Hi guys

I recently purchased a second-hand SEF580A flash (no user manual) and being new to flash photography I'm having trouble understanding how to use it correctly with my NX1. This is the only external flash I currently own.

Question #1: Is there a way to trigger the (off-camera) flash remotely without using the built-in flash of the NX1? (radio / autofocus beam)?

I was only able to fire the flash using it in slave mode and then triggering it with the built-in flash on the NX1. I would prefer not to have to fire the built-in flash.

Question #2: Does anyone know where I could find a digital copy of the user manual for the SEF580A?

Appreciate any help / advice.
