Had to set the flash button to "flash function settings", then activate external flash.
Now it works even after setting that button back to focus control.

Also found that in the first red menu, should have noticed that.

Sounds like you got it.

Yeah, the flash has to be attached, and turned on for the "Ext" menu to appear.  Have fun!
