If using both MultiMAX units as RECEIVE units being triggered by any PocketWizard
Transmitter follow these steps:
1. Set both units to RECEIVE mode
2. Measure lag times of cameras as previously described and record the fastest lag for each
3. Determine which camera is faster and which is slower overall
4. Determine the delay time
If the slow camera is more consistent use this formula:
i. Slower Camera’s Fastest Lag Time MINUS Faster Camera’s
Fastest Lag Time MINUS 0.0025 {calculated safety margin}
If the fast camera is more consistent use this formula:
i. Slower Camera’s Fastest Lag Time MINUS Faster Camera’s
Fastest Lag Time PLUS 0.0025 {calculated safety margin}
5. Attach the slower camera’s motor drive to either PORT on the first unit
6. Attach the faster camera’s motor drive to either PORT on the second unit
7. On the second unit press /MENU A A A, then enter the calculated delay time
from Step 4
8. Make sure there is no delay being performed on the first unit
9. Attach the flash to the more consistent (smallest lag time variance) camera
10. Trigger the system from a TRANSMIT unit’s TEST key

If using 4 or more units you may find it easier to use the built-in Equalize mode. See
the Equalize section, Page 34, for more information.
