Equalize Mode is a specialized delay mode for synchronizing multiple cameras to one flash . This mode is designed to work with shutter speeds up to 1/125 on some cameras, but there are many factors that could affect operation.

LRead the Camera Equalization section, Page 43 , before continuing.

Equalize mode is designed to be used with at least 3 MultiMAX units (set in RECEIVE mode). Two or more MultiMAX units will be attached to cameras and one MultiMAX w ill b e attac hed to a f las h u nit. A M ultiM A X or oth er Poc ketW iz ar d T R A N S M IT T E R will be used to trigger the system .
