Backscatter MF-2 Remote trigger vía MF-1

[wetdreams]

Hi All,
I'm thinking about adding an MF-2 to my arsenal (I currently own two MF-1 and two Inon Z-330 V2).
My goal is to give it to my dive buddy and use it as an off-camera flash, using one of my MF-1s to trigger it. 
I know that I will not be able to remotely control the power of the MF-2 via the MF-1, but that does not bother me, since my only intention is for the MF-1 to trigger the MF-2, and my diving partner powering the MF-2 Up or down through the Power Intensity Knob, when necessary.
And this is where my doubts come. I'm not sure if the MF-1 can trigger the MF-2 when it is in remote mode. 
And I'm also not sure if Power can be changed in the MF-2 with the Power Intensity Knob, when the Mode Dial  is in Remote mode. 
Have any of you tried this? 
To what extent are the MF-1 and MF-2 compatible?

Thanks in advance.

I was able to trigger my MF-2 with the MF-1 in my living room, but I did not try it underwater. I don’t know about changing the power in remote mode though.

Thanks JS1221. I hope someone has real world experience with It.
