Flash Confirmation

The optional Flash Confirmation sensor is another exclusive feature of the PocketWizard MultiMAX Transceiver. Both flash and radio confirmation simultaneously are confirmed and displayed on both the MultiMAX (set for RECEIVE mode) and the MultiMAX (set for TRANSMIT mode)

When using the optional Flash Confirmation Sensor, the MultiMAX (set for TRANSMIT mode) automatically receives a visual and audible confirmation signal, indicating that a triggered flash fired, reassuring the photographer that everything is working from the camera position.

   
Use the equipment setup from the Quad-Triggering illustration.    
       
On the MultiMAX's (set for RECEIVE mode) connect the flash synch cable to FLASH/PORT 2.    
       
Now plug the Flash Confirmation Sensor cable into CAMERA/PORT 1 and position the sensor, so that it is in the path of the flash (see the included directions for suggested sensor positioning).    
       

Press the TEST button on the MultiMAX (set for TRANSMIT mode).  If a small flash symbol appears in the upper right hand corner of the zone triggered, than the flash has fired.

   
       

If the flash symbol is inverted, then the flash did not fire.

In this example, both radio and flash confirmation have failed on zone A.
