Con tact tim e is the leng th of tim e that C AM ER A / P O RT 1 or FLA SH /PO RT 2 outp uts remain contacted. The default Contact Time of 0.12 is enough to trigger most cam era motor drives and flashes. Many photographers will never need to adjust this num ber.

NContac t time is h ow long the intern al sw itch is h eld clos ed.

This is identical to pressing and holding the camera’s trigger button for 3 seconds. The contact time starts as soon as any input is complete. Input can be from any of the following

NContac t time is N O T the length of tim e a MultiM AX (set for T RAN SM IT mode) w ill send a radio triggering signal. Contact time affects POR T 1 and POR T 2 only and does not affect radio trigger transmission. Pressing and holding TEST on a MultiMAX (set for TRAN SMIT m ode) will continuously send the radio trigger signal and hold the contact on a MultiMAX (set for RECE IVE) as well as the TR ANS MIT unit. W hen the

TEST button is released each unit’s contact time will then begin.

NAdditional triggers occurring during contact time are ignored. The default contact time is 0 .12 seconds which triggers all cameras and flash units. A shorter contact time allows f or mor e triggers per s econd bu t may not trig ger s ome m otor driven c ameras because it’s too fast. The default setting of 0.12 allows for 8 triggers per second. The maximum of 30 triggers per second can be obtained by setting contact time to 0.01 seconds.
