In the Relay Mode the MultiMAX acts as both a transmitter
and a receiver.
This allows a single MultiMAX to receive a signal and
trigger the camera connected to it on one channel and
then transmit a signal to trigger a remote flash on
another channel.
Using Relay mode you can trigger a remote camera in
sync with a
remote flash wirelessly up to 1600 feet away.
Either:
1) Mount the MultiMAX to the camera's hot shoe
or
2) Connect via PORT 1 (CAMERA) to the camera's PC socket
via the supplied miniphone-to-PC cord (MP1).
Connect a MultiMAX to a camera's motor drive
port via PORT 2 (FLASH) and a Pre-Release cable (preferred
for best performance).
Turn the MultiMAX on to TRANSMIT.
Press the up/down buttons to select channel 20, on
which it will TRANSMIT.
Switch the Unit to RECEIVE mode.
Press the up/down buttons to select channel 22, on
which it will RECEIVE.
Press L to activate RELAY Mode.
"RLY" and a channel number will appear at
the bottom right corner of the screen.
In this example, the unit will RECEIVE on channel 22
and TRANSMIT on channel 20.
Connect a MultiMAX to a flash unit, and set it to RECEIVE
on channel 20.
Using a third MultiMAX unit, turn it on to TRANSMIT
(or any PocketWizard transmitter or a Sekonic meter
with RT-32 module set to the same channel and Quad Zones
if necessary).
Press the TEST button (or measure button with a Sekonic)
to trigger the camera (on channel 22), which will in
turn trigger the remote flash unit (on channel 20).
