2-6 Wireless Flash Radio Triggering

With the Radio Transmitter module plugged into the meters radio socket and a Receiver or Transceiver (PocketWizard® ) connected to one or more electronic flash units, the meter provides a convenient system that enables one person working alone to measure flash output without the need of a sync cord. Pressing the Measuring button simultaneously triggers the flash and measures the flash output simultaneously.

The L-758DR/758D/758CINE has 32 triggering channels with the RT-32 radio triggering module (built-in for L-758DR, optional for L-758D/758CINE). Channels 1-16 provide single triggering, while channels 17-32 offer Selective Quad-Triggering control. Selecting one of the Quad- Triggering channels (17-32) provides control of up to four zones of lighting indicated as a Zone letter (A, B, C and D). Selecting or deselecting a zone is quick and easy with the Quad-Triggering buttons (A,B, C or D). In order to trigger a flash units set for Quad-Triggering, the electronic flash unit must be connected to a PocketWizard MultiMax or a n electronic flash that already has a PocketWizard built-in. The PocketWizard Plus or Plus II can be triggered by the L-758DR using channels 1-4.

< Example with optional 32 channels receiver >

For L-758D/758CINE: Open the battery compartment cover , remove connector cover @5 and set the RT-32 Radio Transmitter module (optional) by aligning the connector with the pins.
