On models like the SB-800, press and hold the Select button to bring up menu options. Select this option and make sure that the flash is set to TTL mode to match the camera, if applicable.

TTL stands for 'Through The Lens', which is Nikon's way to measure the flash exposure during the actual exposure of the image. In this example we are only using the one speedlight, so leave everything as it is: that is, Group A and B on TTL. Next, we have the option of using groups for different flashes. In this example we want to have the flash fire, but not be included in the final exposure, so in the Built-in flash option on the menu, change the option to the two dashes, or off. You do get the option of including the output of the pop-up flash in your exposure which you can set on this screen.
