Hello and thank you for visiting the PocketWizard® Wiki.

This wiki, written exclusively by the PocketWizard support team, is for helping photographers use and understand their PocketWizard radios. This Wiki has 3 main purposes: how to set up your new PocketWizards, technical support and troubleshooting, and detailed information about your specific radio. You can use the search box up above to help you find something, or you can choose from one of the options below.

Note: If you just purchased a new Plus IIIe, Plus IVe, Nikon FlexTT5, or PowerMC2 and it is not working with your previously purchased PocketWizard radio, it may be because they are using a different line of firmware than previously purchased PocketWizard radios. You can learn about our new firmware here.

First Steps to Set Up Your New Radios

1. Download the Quick Guide for your radio here
2. Check your firmware! Go to the Getting Started page to download our Utility and update your radios. (note: PlusX users may skip this step)
3. 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!
