I don't know wich Olympus manuals state this - I have never seen it but anyway
it is not true. All T Series flashes work perfectly together. An example can be
seen on page 190 of The OM System Lens Handbook: a picture of two T32s and one
T20 + TTL Auto Connector T20 that are attached to the Multi Connector. The back
of the SIF page for the TTL T cords contains a drawing suggesting a similar
setup. The T20 can make a fine fill flash when combined with one or two T32s.
The instruction sheet for the TTL Auto Multi Connector does contain a warning:
"Use T32s and T20s only. If used with other flash units, the flash may not
fire."
What it really means is that you can't combine T Series flashes with non-T
Series flashes. The T45, T18, T10 Ring Flash 1, T8 Ring Flash 2, T28 Single and
T28 Twin Macro Flashes can also be combined with a T32 or T20. You can for
instance directly link a T32 to the T Power Control 1 with just one TTL Auto
Cord, without the Multi Connector, to light the background for macro shots.
