Canon FlexTT5 Camera Accessories User Manual


 
FlexTT5 configured for Auto-Relay
with local Speedlite
Auto-Relay Mode
You can trigger ashes in sync with your remote camera.
This is called Relay Mode. Here’s how it works:
• Press TEST on a PocketWizard that you are holding
in your hands.
• The FlexTT5 connected to your remote camera receives
the signal and triggers your camera.
• The FlexTT5 switches to transmit mode and waits for the
camera to provide a sync pulse.
• The FlexTT5 triggers the ash in its shoe in sync with
other remote PocketWizard radios.
The channel used for relay transmitting is 1 channel higher
than the taught or default channel, unless you set the
channels using the PocketWizard Utility. Be careful not to
teach or set your remote ashes the same channel as your
remote camera or proper synchronization will not occur.
Example: If you taught the camera-connected FlexTT5 unit
Standard Channel 3 then relay transmit occurs on both
ControlTL and Standard Channel 4.
Remember, set the transmitter in your hand and the receiving
channel on the remote FlexTT5 connected to your remote
camera to the same channel. Set the transmitting channel in
that camera’s FlexTT5 to the channel you wish to use for your
remote ashes.
