You need a TTL cord with the Power Bounce Grip 2 for T-20 and T-32 to have
TTL control. Depending on whether you have a 2, 2SP, 3, 4, or PC you can use
TTL Autocord, TTL Shoe cord or TTL Autoconnector with TTL Autocord. 

If you don't want TTL control, you don't need the TTL cord - just use the PC
sync cord fitted into the base of the Power Bounce Grip 2 which you connect
to the camera PC socket.

It doesn't matter whether you have the Winder or not.  

The M.Grip cord is not necessary - it simply allows you to fire the shutter
using the release on the Power Bounce Grip 2.  

The Power Bounce Grip 2 will not work the F280 in Super FP mode (and it will
not provide power to the F280), but not only because it does not have five
contacts in the hot shoe.  It will not work it in Super FP mode AT ALL.  The
only TTL cord for the F280 is a Shoe cord which connects between the hot
shoe of the 3Ti/4Ti and the TTL socket on the F280 - you cannot use any
other TTL cord with the F280.  

So if you want to use the F280 on the Power Bounce Grip 2, get the "TTL Auto
Cord F0.6m"

In order for the T-20, T-32  to work on the Grip 2 with the Winder in place
do I need the TTL cord from the body to the flash and the winder cord to the
grip? =20

With the Grip 2, I notice it does not have the 5 point connection for the
flash does this mean that the FP mode of the 280 will not work from the Grip
or does the TTL connection cover that?
