Yes, there is an incident meter in the Cyber Commander. It does not communicate to the camera, but does act like a normal meter, in that it tells you what settings to apply to your camera. Make sure camera and CC ISO and shutter speed match, go to your subject, aim the dome toward your camera, hit the "meter" button, and the resulting aperture will appear on the screen. This does require at least one CSR+ or CSRB+ to work, and one for each light to work to its fullest potential.

It doesn't communicate with the camera (except to sync the flash), but it does communicate with the lights and it integrates the light reading with what it knows about how the flash units are set.
