I just bought a new PocketWizard! What do I do first?
- Download the Quick Guide for your radio here
- Check your firmware! Go to the Getting Started page to download our Utility and update your radios. (note: PlusX users do not need this step)
- Register your radios! A PocketWizard radio purchased new from an authorized dealer has a 2 year warranty against manufacturer's defects. Extend your warranty to 3 years by registering them online!
IMPORTANT NOTE: If you just purchased a new Plus IIIe or Plus IVe and it is not working with your previously purchased PocketWizard radios, please click here to learn about our new firmware protocol. |
