You should be able to cycle through different modes. Just put it in TTL mode and the flash will match with whatever settings you use on your cam   .   
The Pilot button (red) is to just test the flash  
The :"slave" switch don't worry about unless you use multiple flashes    
One more thing I thought of, you may have some settings in your camera menu to set your external flash, if so, just set it to "TTL mode and you will be all set  
Hope this helps, you won't regret getting the flash   | 
 
  Thank you! that helps a lot. I got it to work - and to my dismay- Layla still closes her eyes but i love the effect that the flash gives- so much softer- so its a keeper- jsut gotta work on layla and her blinking
