Remote Camera Triggering

As with other PocketWizard radios, the MiniTT1 and FlexTT5

can be used to trigger a remote camera. To perform this operation a PocketWizard motor drive cable is required. For cameras with Canon’s E3 connector, you need the PocketWizard CM-E3-ACC cable. For cameras with Canon’s N3 Motor drive connector, you need the CM-N3-ACC cable.

1. Slide the FlexTT5 onto the shoe of the remote camera to

be triggered.

 

2. Connect the motor drive cable from

port on the

FlexTT5 to the remote terminal on the camera.

3. Use the MiniTT1 or any PocketWizard Transmitter to trigger

 

If you are using the MiniTT1 radio as the transmitter, be sure

 

to hold it properly to maximize range. Using the MiniTT1 in this

 

manner causes a large drain on the coin cell battery. To maintain

 

FlexTT5 connected to remote camera

the best battery life, use a FlexTT5 or another PocketWizard as

 

the hand held transmitter.

 

NOTE: With this remote camera setup you are engaging

 

Auto-Relay Mode and sending triggers one channel higher. Read

 

more about that mode for information about using a camera with

 

remote flash.

 

NOTE: The FlexTT5 should be in the shoe of the remote camera

 

to be triggered. Removing it from the shoe may cause unwanted

 

triggering to occur.

 

NOTE: Continuous motor drive triggering of remote cameras is

 

not available. Single shot mode is required.
