=== ControlTL ===
[[File:controltl.jpg|right]]
PocketWizard’s newest firmware platform taps into the camera’s digital communications to enable an entirely new level of remote flash capability through our proven radio system. ControlTL allows remote TTL systems as well as Manual Power Control. ControlTL firmware is configurable and upgradeable for “future-proof” continuous improvement.

=== Dedicated TTL Triggering ===
[[File:ttl.jpg|right]]
Locking your MiniTT1 Transmitter into the hot shoe of a Nikon DSLR camera, and mounting flashes onto FlexTT5 Transceivers, gives you full flash exposure control with the freedom and reliability of a PocketWizard radio. There are no special settings to make or modes to call up. Use the camera’s flash exposure controls for basic control of remote flashes, or add an [[AC3 ZoneController]] or Canon/Nikon Master unit for even more flexibility.

=== Manual Power Control ===
[[File:manual_power_control.jpg|right]]
Adjust the manual power settings of your remote Speedlights directly from a AC3 ZoneController, or master flash mounted on your on-camera MiniTT1 or FlexTT5. You can independently control the power output of up to three remote groups of lights (you can have as many lights in each group as you want) from full power down to the lowest setting through the user interface on the back of the master flash or with the dials of the AC3 ZoneController. Now you can work with total control with your remote lights, without leaving your shooting position.

=== High Speed Sync (Auto FP) ===
[[File:high_speed_sync.jpg|right]]
When HyperSync can’t keep up, High Speed Sync takes over for Speedlite flash photography all the way to 1/8000. ControlTL gains faster recycling times and more flashes per set of batteries when shooting in Auto FP / HSS Flash mode. Use this feature to shoot wide open in bright sun for amazing results.

=== HyperSync ===
[[File:Hypersync.jpg|right]]
Our patent pending HyperSync® technology allows photographers to achieve faster X-sync speeds, up to 1/500th of a second, with full power flash. That extra speed can be used to freeze action or cut ambient light - both of which can produce results never possible before. HyperSync works with both Speedlights and full size studio flash. All you need is a MiniTT1 or FlexTT5 on camera that has been tuned to your specific camera and flash via the PocketWizard Utility.
While performance varies by the camera and flash equipment being used, HyperSync will get the maximum possible out of
 any set-up.

=== PowerTracking ===
[[File:powertracking.jpg|right]]
When working with certain manual flashes, you can change any of your settings on your camera and the system adjusts for those settings. Change your camera's exposure compensation to adjust the flash output, or make adjustments in aperture or ISO and the system balances your flash for proper exposure.

=== PocketWizard Utility ===
[[File:pw_utility.jpg|right]]
Programmable and Upgradeable: Use the PocketWizard Utility software with the on-board USB port to program the MiniTT1 and FlexTT5 to any PocketWizard channel and zone as well as many other custom settings. ControlTL radios can be upgraded whenever updates and feature enhancements are available.

[[File:FlexTT5+MiniTT1.jpg|right|400px|PocketWizard Canon MiniTT1 and FlexTT5]]Congratulations on your purchase of the PocketWizard MiniTT1® / FlexTT5® Wireless Photo Control System for Canon or Nikon DSLR cameras and flashes. You can use the MiniTT1 Transmitter and FlexTT5 Transceiver to control single or multiple off-camera electronic or intelligent TTL flashes. The PocketWizard ControlTL® System takes the complex TTL data being sent through the camera’s hot shoe and digitally interprets and transmits it as a reliable radio signal. You can now place TTL or manual flashes anywhere to illuminate the scene: Around corners, out-of-sight and in bright sunlight. The MiniTT1 and FlexTT5 are compatible with any PocketWizard radio for triggering manual flash or remote cameras.

The Canon-specific MiniTT1 and FlexTT5 radios work within the Canon E-TTL II system.

The Nikon-specific MiniTT1 and FlexTT5 radios work within the Nikon i-TTL / CLS system.

All references to TTL are exclusively for the electronic or intelligent TTL systems specific to Canon (E-TTL II) and Nikon (i-TTL / CLS) and not film TTL.

The terms Speedlite or Speedlight are used interchangeably throughout this wiki.

This wiki contains the latest information about the operation of your radios. If you would like to download a PDF of this information, [[PocketWizard_Wiki:Books/MiniTT1_and_FlexTT5_Manual|click here]] and follow the instructions.

Learn Mode

{{recommended reading|Mounting|}}

[[File:Learnmode.jpg]]

Learn Mode allows you to change channels in a ControlTL radio when you are away from your computer by using any PocketWizard transmitter to teach a new channel. This allows you to change to a different channel or frequency when shooting at an event and you don't have access to the [[PocketWizard Utility]]. It is recommended that you use your computer to set your channels whenever possible, but this handy mode is provided for special situations.

<videoflash>A2_snjmjt44|640</videoflash>

|}

== Important ==
'''IMPORTANT: Learn Mode is not required for normal operation of your radios.''' It is intended as a tool for resolving channel conflicts in the field. Most photographers can use the default channels safely. If you wish to operate on different channels, then the [[PocketWizard Utility]] is the recommended method for setting channels.

See the [[PocketWizard Utility]] section for more information on setting channels from within the Utility. See the [[Channels]] section for more information on channels and frequencies.

== Standard or ControlTL? ==

When Learn Mode is engaged on a ControlTL radio, that radio will listen to all the frequencies and channels that it can. As soon as it hears a trigger from another PocketWizard transmitter, it learns a channel.

A ControlTL transmitter like the FlexTT5 or MiniTT1 transmits on two channels with each trigger: ControlTL and Standard. You need to make sure the radio you are teaching learns the proper one. '''You need it to learn a ControlTL if you are using Canon or Nikon Speedlights in TTL mode.'''

To teach ControlTL radios to use Standard channels, use a Standard transmitter like a Plus II or MultiMAX as the teaching radio for all learning radios including the MiniTT1 or FlexTT5 to be used as the primary transmitter.

To teach ControlTL radios to use a ControlTL channel, teach the ControlTL transmitter you will be using first, then use it to to teach all the radios you want to receive on ControlTL channels. If all you have to teach with is a Standard radio like a Plus II or MultiMAX, you can use it to teach a different ControlTL channel. See the table below for corresponding channels.

If you are using a ControlTL transmitter like the MiniTT1 or FlexTT5 on your camera, and you want to have your flash respond to power settings from the AC3 or perform [[PowerTracking]], make sure your radios learn a ControlTL channel. Standard Channels on the Plus II and MultiMAX can be used for triggering only.

====Transmitting channel ====

A MiniTT1 or FlexTT5 learning from another PocketWizard transmitter will learn both a Standard channel as well as a corresponding ControlTL channel for transmitting. See below for more information about corresponding channels.

==== Receiving channel ====

A FlexTT5 Transceiver can only receive on one channel at a time. It receives on *either* a ControlTL *or* a Standard channel, not both simultaneously. When being taught from a Standard transmitter it will learn to receive only on a Standard channel. When being taught from a ControlTL transmitter, it is designed to learn the ControlTL channel, but you need to verify that using the information below.

== Engaging Learn Mode ==
<div style="float: right;"><videoflash>vV0tLU03OAg&loop=1&autoplay=1|225|155</videoflash></div>
Follow the steps below to put your PowerST4 in Learn Mode.

'''IMPORTANT: Hold radios at least 2 feet apart when teaching/learning. Your flash may trigger during teach/learn.'''

# Prepare your ControlTL radio for Learn Mode:
#:[[MiniTT1 and FlexTT5]] - turn the radio on and select the configuration to be taught, C.1 or C.2. Wait 3 or 4 seconds until you see the normal green blinks indicating the radio is ready to go with good batteries. Learning takes a lot of power for the MiniTT1 so be sure you are starting with a good coin cell battery.
#:[[File:Learn_Mode_1.jpg]]
#:[[PowerST4]] - Plug the PowerST4 radio into a compatible flash and turn it ON.
#Press and hold TEST on the radio to be taught for several seconds. The led will pulse red becuase you are transmitting!

#When the Status LED blinks amber 4 times, Learn Mode is engaged (amber pulsing)! Quickly release TEST and ...
#:[[File:Learn_Mode_3.jpg]]
#Immediately press and hold TEST on the teaching transmitting radio (MiniTT1, FlexTT5, MultiMAX or Plus II).
#:[[File:Learn_Mode_4.jpg]]
#When the Status LED blinks green, the channel is learned:
#:[[File:Learn_Mode_5.jpg]]
#*1 green blink = Low Standard channel learned (1 through 16, including Plus 1 through 4)
#*2 green blinks = High Standard channel learned (MultiMAX 17 through 32)
#*3 green blinks = ControlTL channel learned for MiniTT1 or FlexTT5
#*If you see no green blinks during the LEARN cycle then the radio did not learn a new channel and will use the previous one. Hold the radios farther apart and try teaching again.

For remote E-TTL II to function, the ControlTL channel must be learned. If you see only 1 or 2 green blinks after teaching then a Standard channel was learned and E-TTL II will not function. If you desire E-TTL II functionality, teach the FlexTT5 again from the MiniTT1 or FlexTT5 to be used as the primary transmitter and look for 3 green blinks.

=== Programming FlexTT5 units for ControlTL operation when teaching with a Standard PocketWizard ===

If you are using a FlexTT5 as a transmitter in your system, and you want it to learn a different ControlTL channel from a Standard transmitter, you need to follow this sequence to make sure all of your FlexTT5 radios transmit and receive on the same channel.

#Teach a transmitting FlexTT5 with a standard PocketWizard.
#:[[File:Learn_Mode_5.jpg]]
#Use the programmed FlexTT5 transmitter to teach all other FlexTT5 receivers. Make sure you see 3 green blinks which confirms the ControlTL channel was learned. If you see only 1 or 2 blinks after teaching, then the FlexTT5 is listening on a Standard channel and will not receive TTL or {{PowerTracking]] information. Teach it again if you need TTL or PowerTracking.
#:[[File:Learn_Mode_6.jpg]]
#Reprogram the FlexTT5 transmitter (the first one you taught) with one of the FlexTT5 receivers. This assures all FlexTT5 radios will send and receive on the same ControlTL channel.

== Special Notes ==

*On a transmitting radio like a MiniTT1 or FlexTT5, when you are holding TEST to engage Learn Mode, you are also transmitting! Make sure remote equipment that you do not want to trigger is turned off.
*Activating LEARN in a MiniTT1 causes a large drain on the coin cell battery. To maintain the best battery life, use the [[PocketWizard Utility]] to teach channels to the MiniTT1 whenever possible.
*For a MiniTT1 or FlexTT5 only the configuration set, C.1 or C.2, will be taught. The other configuration will retain its settings.
*For a MiniTT1 or FlexTT5 all other settings as set in the [[PocketWizard Utility]] will remain in effect. If you wish to reset your radio to [[Factory Defaults]], follow that procedure, then engage Learn Mode.
*Learn Mode is only used by ControlTL radios like the MiniTT1, FlexTT5 or PowerST4. Standard radios like the Plus II and MultiMAX do not learn channels, but can be used to teach ControlTL radios different channels.
*Radios from different world regions cannot be used together with Learn Mode. CE radios cannot teach or learn US FCC/IC channels and frequencies, and vice versa. See the [[Channels]] section for more information on channels and frequencies.
*A Sekonic Meter cannot be used to teach. Its brief trigger mode is not compatible with LEARN.
*Custom IDs from MultiMAX radios are not learned.
*When teaching a ControlTL transmitter from another ControlTL transmitter, usually only the ControlTL channel is learned and not the Standard Channel. Even though your teaching radio is transmitting on two channels, Standard and ControlTL, the learning radio only hears the one it received first which is usually the ControlTL channel. The Standard channel that the radio being taught will use is based on the table below.

== Corresponding Channels Table ==

When you teach a ControlTL transmitter, like a MiniTT1, from a Standard transmitter, like a Plus II, the ControlTL transmitter learns to transmit on the Standard channel you taught it with '''and''' uses a corresponding ControlTL channel from the table below.

Learn Mode

2011-01-21T22:06:56Z

{{recommended reading|Mounting|}}

Learn Mode allows you to change channels in a ControlTL radio when you are away from your computer by using any PocketWizard transmitter to teach a new channel. This allows you to change to a different channel or frequency when shooting at an event and you don't have access to the [[PocketWizard Utility]]. It is recommended that you use your computer to set your channels whenever possible, but this handy mode is provided for special situations.

<videoflash>A2_snjmjt44|640</videoflash>
{|
|
|}

== Important ==
'''IMPORTANT: Learn Mode is not required for normal operation of your radios.''' It is intended as a tool for resolving channel conflicts in the field. Most photographers can use the default channels safely. If you wish to operate on different channels, then the [[PocketWizard Utility]] is the recommended method for setting channels.

See the [[PocketWizard Utility]] section for more information on setting channels from within the Utility. See the [[Channels]] section for more information on channels and frequencies.

== Standard or ControlTL? ==

When Learn Mode is engaged on a ControlTL radio, that radio will listen to all the frequencies and channels that it can. As soon as it hears a trigger from another PocketWizard transmitter, it learns a channel.

A ControlTL transmitter like the FlexTT5 or MiniTT1 transmits on two channels with each trigger: ControlTL and Standard. You need to make sure the radio you are teaching learns the proper one. '''You need it to learn a ControlTL if you are using Canon or Nikon Speedlights in TTL mode.'''

To teach ControlTL radios to use Standard channels, use a Standard transmitter like a Plus II or MultiMAX as the teaching radio for all learning radios including the MiniTT1 or FlexTT5 to be used as the primary transmitter.

To teach ControlTL radios to use a ControlTL channel, teach the ControlTL transmitter you will be using first, then use it to to teach all the radios you want to receive on ControlTL channels. If all you have to teach with is a Standard radio like a Plus II or MultiMAX, you can use it to teach a different ControlTL channel. See the table below for corresponding channels.

If you are using a ControlTL transmitter like the MiniTT1 or FlexTT5 on your camera, and you want to have your flash respond to power settings from the AC3 or perform [[PowerTracking]], make sure your radios learn a ControlTL channel. Standard Channels on the Plus II and MultiMAX can be used for triggering only.

====Transmitting channel ====

A MiniTT1 or FlexTT5 learning from another PocketWizard transmitter will learn both a Standard channel as well as a corresponding ControlTL channel for transmitting. See below for more information about corresponding channels.

==== Receiving channel ====

A FlexTT5 Transceiver can only receive on one channel at a time. It receives on *either* a ControlTL *or* a Standard channel, not both simultaneously. When being taught from a Standard transmitter it will learn to receive only on a Standard channel. When being taught from a ControlTL transmitter, it is designed to learn the ControlTL channel, but you need to verify that using the information below.

== Engaging Learn Mode ==
<div style="float: right;"><videoflash>vV0tLU03OAg&loop=1&autoplay=1|225|155</videoflash></div>
Follow the steps below to put your PowerST4 in Learn Mode.

'''IMPORTANT: Hold radios at least 2 feet apart when teaching/learning. Your flash may trigger during teach/learn.'''

# Prepare your ControlTL radio for Learn Mode:
#:[[MiniTT1 and FlexTT5]] - turn the radio on and select the configuration to be taught, C.1 or C.2. Wait 3 or 4 seconds until you see the normal green blinks indicating the radio is ready to go with good batteries. Learning takes a lot of power for the MiniTT1 so be sure you are starting with a good coin cell battery.
#:[[File:Learn_Mode_1.jpg]]
#:[[PowerST4]] - Plug the PowerST4 radio into a compatible flash and turn it ON.
#Press and hold TEST on the radio to be taught for several seconds. The led will pulse red becuase you are transmitting!
#:[[File:Learn_Mode_2.jpg]]
#When the Status LED blinks amber 4 times, Learn Mode is engaged (amber pulsing)! Quickly release TEST and ...
#:[[File:Learn_Mode_3.jpg]]
#Immediately press and hold TEST on the teaching transmitting radio (MiniTT1, FlexTT5, MultiMAX or Plus II).
#:[[File:Learn_Mode_4.jpg]]
#When the Status LED blinks green, the channel is learned:
#:[[File:Learn_Mode_5.jpg]]
#*1 green blink = Low Standard channel learned (1 through 16, including Plus 1 through 4)
#*2 green blinks = High Standard channel learned (MultiMAX 17 through 32)
#*3 green blinks = ControlTL channel learned for MiniTT1 or FlexTT5
#*If you see no green blinks during the LEARN cycle then the radio did not learn a new channel and will use the previous one. Hold the radios farther apart and try teaching again.

For remote E-TTL II to function, the ControlTL channel must be learned. If you see only 1 or 2 green blinks after teaching then a Standard channel was learned and E-TTL II will not function. If you desire E-TTL II functionality, teach the FlexTT5 again from the MiniTT1 or FlexTT5 to be used as the primary transmitter and look for 3 green blinks.

Nikon Compatibility

2011-01-21T19:22:13Z

Eric: /* Pre-Flash Boost controls */

This section contains compatibility information for the Nikon [[MiniTT1 and FlexTT5]] ControlTL radios.{{recommended reading|PocketWizard Utility|}}

== Camera Compatibility ==

The MiniTT1 and FlexTT5 for Nikon are compatible with these modern Nikon digital cameras capable of using Nikon's latest i-TTL / CLS protocol:

*D3x, D3s, D3, D2x
*D700, D300, D300s, D200
*D90, D80, D40x, D40
*D7000, D5000, D3000

The Nikon D3100 has initial feature compatibility built into the firmware and will function well in normal sync modes however a future firmware update will be released to improve timing capabilities with Rear Curtain Sync and add other compatibility improvements.

The MiniTT1 & FlexTT5 for Nikon are currently '''NOT''' compatible with these Nikon cameras:

*D1, D1x, D1h, D2h, D2hs
*D100
*D70, D70s
*Coolpix
*Film-based cameras

[[Misc Tab|BASIC TRIGGER MODE]]: Almost all cameras and flashes are compatible with the MiniTT1 and FlexTT5 when the radios are configured for Basic Trigger Mode. Basic Trigger Mode disables all flash power control and TTL functions of the radios.

== Speedlight Compatibility ==

The MiniTT1 & FlexTT5 for Nikon are compatible with the following modern Nikon Speedlights as Remote flashes and Nikon On-Camera Master flashes: (Other flashes may work in [[Misc Tab|Basic Trigger Mode]] without CLS / i-TTL.)

=== Nikon Speedlights as Remotes ===

*SB-900
*SB-800
*SB-700
*SB-600
*SB-400

=== Nikon Speedlights as On-Camera Master Flashes ===

*SB-900
*SB-800
*SU-800 Wireless Speedlight Commander

The Nikon SB-700 flash as a MASTER is currently being researched, and may be addressed in a future firmware update.

The MiniTT1 & FlexTT5 for Nikon are currently '''NOT''' compatible with the following Nikon Speedlights as Master or Remote Units:

Any older generation Nikon Flashes as Remote Units Such as:
*SB-80DX
*SB-80
*SB-28DX
*SB-28
*SB-50
*any other Speedlight not listed above

[[Misc Tab|BASIC TRIGGER MODE]]: Almost all cameras and flashes are compatible with the MiniTT1 and FlexTT5 when the radios are configured for Basic Trigger Mode. Basic Trigger Mode disables all flash power control and TTL functions of the radios.

== Operational Notes ==

=== Flash Exposure Compensation ===

Flash exposure compensation is controlled as part of the camera’s exposure compensation, set via the exposure compensation button near the shutter release. This compensation works in all shooting modes, including Manual. When in Manual mode, the exposure compensation will only affect the flash exposure, as the camera exposure is controlled by the settings you’ve selected manually. Note that the D2x and D3 series cameras do not have Flash Exposure Compensation on the camera body, as they don’t have a built-in flash.

=== Vibration Reduction (VR) Mode Auto-Detection ===

When using VR Lenses, switching the VR Mode on or off results in the transmitting radio taking a calibration shot to adjust for the resulting flash timing shift. This may result in a single missed frame after toggling the VR mode on or off. In rare cases, when shooting above your camera’s x-sync speed (1/250th or faster on most cameras), this calibration shot may fail, and continued dark frames may occur. If this happens, take a test shot at a shutter speed below 1/200th of a second, and then move back to your desired shutter speed. In the interest of simplicity, we recommend leaving VR-mode either on or off for the duration of your shooting session.

[[File:preflash_boost.jpg]]
=== Pre-Flash Boost controls ===

Modern TTL (Through The Lens) metering systems are based on a pre-flash fired an instant before the camera’s shutter opens, allowing the camera to calculate the amount of light output required for a proper exposure. Pre-Flash Boost is a feature which increases this metering pre-flash’s light output, which helps to make more accurate TTL exposure calculations at the longer distances our ControlTL radios can achieve. It also helps compensate for light lost when using a light modifier like an umbrella or soft box. By default, this feature adds approximately 2 stops of light output to these metering flashes. This light output can be controlled by the EV controls on the back of the remote flash. The amount of pre-flash boost compensation set on the remote flashes will not affect the final exposure. This allows you to increase the pre-flash boost beyond the default value for subjects farther away, and decrease the pre-flash boost for subjects very close to the flash.

=== High Speed / FP-Sync Speed Selection ===

In order to use High Speed/FP-Sync on cameras that support it, your camera must be set to use Auto FP mode via the Custom Settings Menu. On most cameras, this is Custom Setting “e1 – Flash Sync Speed”. All cameras that support HSS/FP-Sync operation have the option for 1/250th (Auto FP), which is the recommended menu setting.

Some cameras such as the D300, D300s and D700 have a 1/320th (Auto FP) menu option, which is not recommended for use, as it can cause sync timing issues specifically at the 1/320th shutter speed.

=== SB-900 Light Pattern ===

The SB-900 has a special Light Pattern Menu, which allows you to set a slightly different light output pattern. Of the three options in this menu, “STD” for Standard output must be selected. Selecting either “CW” for Center-Weighted or “EVEN” for Even output is not supported and may result in exposure errors.

=== ControlTL Transmit Priority at X-sync ===

ControlTL radios transmit on both ControlTL and Standard PocketWizard channels, and have a very small delay between sending these two signals. Standard Channels are used by remote Plus II, MultiMAX or remoteFlexTT5 radios configured to use them. By default, the ControlTL channel is transmitted first, then the Standard Channel. At the camera’s x-sync speed (1/250th on most cameras), there is a very limited time window to send both signals, and in some cases the second signal may be too late to allow sync with the camera’s shutter. This checkbox in the PocketWizard Utility, accessed only by enabling the utility’s “Advanced Mode”, controls which signal is sent first at the camera’s x-sync speed, to prioritize which signal is more important for your shooting scenario. Note that this caveat only applies at the camera’s x-sync speed shutter speed – all other shutter speeds above and below X-sync are unaffected

[[File:rear_curtain_sync.jpg]]
=== Rear Curtain Sync ===

Rear Curtain Sync works for all shutter speeds under x-sync down to 8”. Below 8” (including bulb mode), synchronization errors will occur. Front-curtain (normal) sync is unaffected at these longer speeds, including bulb-mode. Note that Rear-Curtain sync can be left enabled when above your camera’s x-sync speed – it just will not have any effect.

=== Modes Not Supported ===

*Mirror Up mode is not fully supported at this time – test with your specific configuration before using.
*Exposure Delay mode (set via in-camera menu) is not currently supported.
*Repeater/RPT mode is not currently supported.
*Using in-camera “Flash Control for Built In Flash” menu to control remote zones is not currently supported.
*ControlTL radios disable ALL infra-red/optical communication pulses used in Nikon’s native i-TTL system, and as such will not trigger remote flashes configured to receive these pulses. A PocketWizard radio is required for each remote flash you want to trigger.
*The SB-900 flash’s local Manual mode cannot currently be triggered by a remote FlexTT5 – it must be in TTL mode (or Master mode when on-camera) to operate on ControlTL radios. Recommend work-around is to instead put the SB-900 into TTL mode, and control the flash’s power from the camera with a Master flash or SU-800 unit.

== Differences from Canon MiniTT1/FlexTT5 Firmware Version 5.200 ==

For customers in a mixed Canon / Nikon ControlTL environment, these are the main differences between using Nikon ControlTL radios in comparison to the Canon units.

*Rear Curtain Sync is enabled and disabled on the camera body in the Nikon system, and is controlled by the camera. Canon ControlTL’s Rear Curtain Sync in comparison is set via the PocketWizard Utility.
*ControlTL for Nikon does not have [[Force TTL Master Mode]]. Instead, when using an on-camera SB-800 or SB-900, the Master setting of the on-camera flash determines if remote flashes will fire. When either of these flashes are in non-master mode, only the on camera flash will fire. When the on-camera flash is set to Master mode, the remote flashes will fire according to the zone configurations set on the back of the Master on-camera flash.
*HyperSync offsets have been specifically optimized for each compatible camera, and should provide a better out-of-the-box HyperSync experience. The HyperSync offset in the PocketWizard Utility now has a default setting of “0”, with the full range of timing adjustments being -2000us, and +200us. This allows for adjustment in both directions if current optimizations do not perfectly match the characteristics of your specific camera’s shutter.
*[[Pre-Flash Boost]] is controlled locally at the flash via its Flash Exposure Compensation controls, instead of via the PocketWizard Utility settings in the Canon system.
*The wake/sleep operation of Nikon cameras is significantly different from the Canon system, and as such affects the Nikon MiniTT1’s battery life. A CR2450 coin cell in the Nikon MiniTT1 should yield about 30-50 hours of camera-awake time.

Nikon Compatibility

2011-01-21T19:15:55Z

Eric: /* Rear Curtain Sync */

This section contains compatibility information for the Nikon [[MiniTT1 and FlexTT5]] ControlTL radios.{{recommended reading|PocketWizard Utility|}}

== Camera Compatibility ==

The MiniTT1 and FlexTT5 for Nikon are compatible with these modern Nikon digital cameras capable of using Nikon's latest i-TTL / CLS protocol:

*D3x, D3s, D3, D2x
*D700, D300, D300s, D200
*D90, D80, D40x, D40
*D7000, D5000, D3000

The Nikon D3100 has initial feature compatibility built into the firmware and will function well in normal sync modes however a future firmware update will be released to improve timing capabilities with Rear Curtain Sync and add other compatibility improvements.

The MiniTT1 & FlexTT5 for Nikon are currently '''NOT''' compatible with these Nikon cameras:

*D1, D1x, D1h, D2h, D2hs
*D100
*D70, D70s
*Coolpix
*Film-based cameras

[[Misc Tab|BASIC TRIGGER MODE]]: Almost all cameras and flashes are compatible with the MiniTT1 and FlexTT5 when the radios are configured for Basic Trigger Mode. Basic Trigger Mode disables all flash power control and TTL functions of the radios.

== Speedlight Compatibility ==

The MiniTT1 & FlexTT5 for Nikon are compatible with the following modern Nikon Speedlights as Remote flashes and Nikon On-Camera Master flashes: (Other flashes may work in [[Misc Tab|Basic Trigger Mode]] without CLS / i-TTL.)

=== Nikon Speedlights as Remotes ===

*SB-900
*SB-800
*SB-700
*SB-600
*SB-400

=== Nikon Speedlights as On-Camera Master Flashes ===

*SB-900
*SB-800
*SU-800 Wireless Speedlight Commander

The Nikon SB-700 flash as a MASTER is currently being researched, and may be addressed in a future firmware update.

The MiniTT1 & FlexTT5 for Nikon are currently '''NOT''' compatible with the following Nikon Speedlights as Master or Remote Units:

Any older generation Nikon Flashes as Remote Units Such as:
*SB-80DX
*SB-80
*SB-28DX
*SB-28
*SB-50
*any other Speedlight not listed above

[[Misc Tab|BASIC TRIGGER MODE]]: Almost all cameras and flashes are compatible with the MiniTT1 and FlexTT5 when the radios are configured for Basic Trigger Mode. Basic Trigger Mode disables all flash power control and TTL functions of the radios.

== Operational Notes ==

=== Flash Exposure Compensation ===

Flash exposure compensation is controlled as part of the camera’s exposure compensation, set via the exposure compensation button near the shutter release. This compensation works in all shooting modes, including Manual. When in Manual mode, the exposure compensation will only affect the flash exposure, as the camera exposure is controlled by the settings you’ve selected manually. Note that the D2x and D3 series cameras do not have Flash Exposure Compensation on the camera body, as they don’t have a built-in flash.

=== Vibration Reduction (VR) Mode Auto-Detection ===

When using VR Lenses, switching the VR Mode on or off results in the transmitting radio taking a calibration shot to adjust for the resulting flash timing shift. This may result in a single missed frame after toggling the VR mode on or off. In rare cases, when shooting above your camera’s x-sync speed (1/250th or faster on most cameras), this calibration shot may fail, and continued dark frames may occur. If this happens, take a test shot at a shutter speed below 1/200th of a second, and then move back to your desired shutter speed. In the interest of simplicity, we recommend leaving VR-mode either on or off for the duration of your shooting session.

=== Pre-Flash Boost controls ===

Modern TTL (Through The Lens) metering systems are based on a pre-flash fired an instant before the camera’s shutter opens, allowing the camera to calculate the amount of light output required for a proper exposure. Pre-Flash Boost is a feature which increases this metering pre-flash’s light output, which helps to make more accurate TTL exposure calculations at the longer distances our ControlTL radios can achieve. It also helps compensate for light lost when using a light modifier like an umbrella or soft box. By default, this feature adds approximately 2 stops of light output to these metering flashes. This light output can be controlled by the EV controls on the back of the remote flash. The amount of pre-flash boost compensation set on the remote flashes will not affect the final exposure. This allows you to increase the pre-flash boost beyond the default value for subjects farther away, and decrease the pre-flash boost for subjects very close to the flash.

=== High Speed / FP-Sync Speed Selection ===

In order to use High Speed/FP-Sync on cameras that support it, your camera must be set to use Auto FP mode via the Custom Settings Menu. On most cameras, this is Custom Setting “e1 – Flash Sync Speed”. All cameras that support HSS/FP-Sync operation have the option for 1/250th (Auto FP), which is the recommended menu setting.

Some cameras such as the D300, D300s and D700 have a 1/320th (Auto FP) menu option, which is not recommended for use, as it can cause sync timing issues specifically at the 1/320th shutter speed.

=== SB-900 Light Pattern ===

The SB-900 has a special Light Pattern Menu, which allows you to set a slightly different light output pattern. Of the three options in this menu, “STD” for Standard output must be selected. Selecting either “CW” for Center-Weighted or “EVEN” for Even output is not supported and may result in exposure errors.

=== ControlTL Transmit Priority at X-sync ===

ControlTL radios transmit on both ControlTL and Standard PocketWizard channels, and have a very small delay between sending these two signals. Standard Channels are used by remote Plus II, MultiMAX or remoteFlexTT5 radios configured to use them. By default, the ControlTL channel is transmitted first, then the Standard Channel. At the camera’s x-sync speed (1/250th on most cameras), there is a very limited time window to send both signals, and in some cases the second signal may be too late to allow sync with the camera’s shutter. This checkbox in the PocketWizard Utility, accessed only by enabling the utility’s “Advanced Mode”, controls which signal is sent first at the camera’s x-sync speed, to prioritize which signal is more important for your shooting scenario. Note that this caveat only applies at the camera’s x-sync speed shutter speed – all other shutter speeds above and below X-sync are unaffected

Eric: /* ControlTL */

You can also learn about the MiniTT1 and FlexTT5 on [http://www.pocketwizard.com/products/transmitter_receiver/ PocketWizard.com]

[[File:Controltl.jpg]]

=== ControlTL ===

PocketWizard’s newest firmware platform taps into the camera’s digital communications to enable an entirely new level of remote flash capability through our proven radio system. ControlTL allows remote TTL systems as well as Manual Power Control. ControlTL firmware is configurable and upgradeable for “future-proof” continuous improvement.

=== Dedicated TTL Triggering ===

Locking your MiniTT1 Transmitter into the hot shoe of a Nikon DSLR camera, and mounting flashes onto FlexTT5 Transceivers, gives you full flash exposure control with the freedom and reliability of a PocketWizard radio. There are no special settings to make or modes to call up. Use the camera’s flash exposure controls for basic control of remote flashes, or add an [[AC3 ZoneController]] or Canon/Nikon Master unit for even more flexibility.

[[File:manual_power_control.jpg]]
=== Manual Power Control ===

Adjust the manual power settings of your remote Speedlights directly from a AC3 ZoneController, or master flash mounted on your on-camera MiniTT1 or FlexTT5. You can independently control the power output of up to three remote groups of lights (you can have as many lights in each group as you want) from full power down to the lowest setting through the user interface on the back of the master flash or with the dials of the AC3 ZoneController. Now you can work with total control with your remote lights, without leaving your shooting position.

[[File:high_speed_sync.jpg]]
=== High Speed Sync (Auto FP) ===

When HyperSync can’t keep up, High Speed Sync takes over for Speedlite flash photography all the way to 1/8000. ControlTL gains faster recycling times and more flashes per set of batteries when shooting in Auto FP / HSS Flash mode. Use this feature to shoot wide open in bright sun for amazing results.

[[File:Hypersync.jpg]]

=== HyperSync ===
Our patent pending HyperSync® technology allows photographers to achieve faster X-sync speeds, up to 1/500th of a second, with full power flash. That extra speed can be used to freeze action or cut ambient light - both of which can produce results never possible before. HyperSync works with both Speedlights and full size studio flash. All you need is a MiniTT1 or FlexTT5 on camera that has been tuned to your specific camera and flash via the PocketWizard Utility. While performance varies by the camera and flash equipment being used, HyperSync will get the maximum possible out of any set-up.

[[File:powertracking.jpg]]
=== PowerTracking ===

When working with certain manual flashes, you can change any of your settings on your camera and the system adjusts for those settings. Change your camera's exposure compensation to adjust the flash output, or make adjustments in aperture or ISO and the system balances your flash for proper exposure.

[[File:pw_utility.jpg]]
=== PocketWizard Utility ===

Programmable and Upgradeable: Use the PocketWizard Utility software with the on-board USB port to program the MiniTT1 and FlexTT5 to any PocketWizard channel and zone as well as many other custom settings. ControlTL radios can be upgraded whenever updates and feature enhancements are available.

That extra speed can be used to freeze action or cut ambient light - both of which can produce results never possible before. HyperSync works with both Speedlights and full size studio flash. All you need is a MiniTT1 or FlexTT5 on camera that has been tuned to your specific camera and flash via the PocketWizard Utility. While performance varies by the camera and flash equipment being used, HyperSync will get the maximum possible out of any set-up.

=== PowerTracking ===

When working with certain manual flashes, you can change any of your settings on your camera and the system adjusts for those settings. Change your camera's exposure compensation to adjust the flash output, or make adjustments in aperture or ISO and the system balances your flash for proper exposure.

=== PocketWizard Utility ===

Programmable and Upgradeable: Use the PocketWizard Utility software with the on-board USB port to program the MiniTT1 and FlexTT5 to any PocketWizard channel and zone as well as many other custom settings. ControlTL radios can be upgraded whenever updates and feature enhancements are available.

=== ControlTL ===

PocketWizard’s newest firmware platform taps into the camera’s digital communications to enable an entirely new level of remote flash capability through our proven radio system. ControlTL allows remote TTL systems as well as Manual Power Control. ControlTL firmware is configurable and upgradeable for “future-proof” continuous improvement.

=== Dedicated TTL Triggering ===

Locking your MiniTT1 Transmitter into the hot shoe of a Nikon DSLR camera, and mounting flashes onto FlexTT5 Transceivers, gives you full flash exposure control with the freedom and reliability of a PocketWizard radio. There are no special settings to make or modes to call up. Use the camera’s flash exposure controls for basic control of remote flashes, or add an [[AC3 ZoneController]] or Canon/Nikon Master unit for even more flexibility.

=== Manual Power Control ===

Adjust the manual power settings of your remote Speedlights directly from a AC3 ZoneController, or master flash mounted on your on-camera MiniTT1 or FlexTT5. You can independently control the power output of up to three remote groups of lights (you can have as many lights in each group as you want) from full power down to the lowest setting through the user interface on the back of the master flash or with the dials of the AC3 ZoneController. Now you can work with total control with your remote lights, without leaving your shooting position.

=== High Speed Sync (Auto FP) ===

When HyperSync can’t keep up, High Speed Sync takes over for Speedlite flash photography all the way to 1/8000. ControlTL gains faster recycling times and more flashes per set of batteries when shooting in Auto FP / HSS Flash mode. Use this feature to shoot wide open in bright sun for amazing results.
