Olympus C-5050 & Canon 420EX Problem

[phoenixdata]

Hi all,
Been at it for awhile. Totally new to photography and cameras so please be kind. :lol:

I recently ordered a C-5050 online and during the checkout process it listed a canon 420EX Speedlight as an accessorie. Naturally having more credit than brains I ordered it.

Thing is it all showed up yesturday and I have been trying all day to get the 420EX to work as a remote wireless slave to the C-5050 with no luck whatsoever.

Does anyone know if its even possible ? Theres more buttons on the flash than theres instructions for and hate to say it but the Olympus is the same way when it comes to any info on flash.

If anyone can shed anylight on this for me I would appreciate it,
Thanks
