Standard Radio Operation
Transceiver Control
The MultiMAX operates as either a transmitter or a receiver. To use the MultiMAX as
a Transmitter (sending device) set the power switch to TRANSMIT. To use the
MultiMAX as a Receiver set the power switch to RECEIVE.
L There is a special mode that enables a MultiMAX to automatically switch from
RECEIVE to TRANSMIT then back to RECEIVE while triggering a remote camera.
Read the Relay Mode section, Page 40, for more information.
Channels
The MultiMAX is a 32 channel digital radio slave. Each MultiMAX channel represents
a digital code transmitted on specific PocketWizard radio frequencies. This enables
many photographers to work in the same area. It also enables a photographer to
control multiple remote devices (cameras, flash units, etc).
A MultiMAX (set for TRANSMIT mode) will trigger any number of MultiMAX units (set
for RECEIVE mode) set to the same channel. Units set to different channels will not
interfere with each other.
From the main screen press the keys to change channels.
Some MultiMAX features are only available on higher channels. Refer to the table
