HyperSync® & High Speed Sync (FP Flash) (cont’d)
HyperSync is set in a transmitting radio only. It is not used in a remote FlexTT5. All receiving PocketWizard radios, including the Plus II, etc., will trigger in sync with HyperSync. At 1/640 and above, Standard triggers are not sent.
NOTE: HyperSync requires a MiniTT1 or FlexTT5 as a transmitter. A Standard transmitter like a Plus II cannot trigger a remote FlexTT5 and achieve HyperSync.
If you are seeing Front Curtain clipping (top of frame is dark), then your HyperSync offset should be moved towards 0 (zero). If you are seeing Rear Curtain clipping (bottom of frame is dark), then your HyperSync offset should be moved away from 0 (zero).
When making adjustments, try adjusting in 30 micro- second steps until you see some changes, then try smaller steps to fine tune your setting. Remember to press Set Both Configs in the Utility after every adjustment.
For some camera and flash combinations it is not possible to eliminate clipping, especially at the faster HyperSync shutter speeds like 1/400 and 1/500. Use a slower shutter speed or use 1/640 or higher and engage FP Flash/High Speed Sync. FP Flash/High Speed Sync is not available on shutter speeds between 1/250 and 1/640 when using ControlTL radios.
Front Curtain Clipping = move HyperSync slider towards 0
Rear Curtain Clipping = move HyperSync slider away from 0
