Channels
Channels enable you to work with other photographers and to keep your triggering exclusive. Some
channels operate on different frequencies to help you avoid interference. All PocketWizard radio slaves set 
to the same channel work together.
ControlTL uses a new channel system in addition to the Standard channel system used in other 
PocketWizard radios. The MiniTT1 Transmitter and FlexTT5 Transceiver can trigger all existing 
PocketWizard radios. They can also be taught channels (including new ControlTL channels) by existing 
PocketWizard transmitters. The FlexTT5 can operate as a receiver for any PocketWizard transmitter.
IMPORTANT: When a MiniTT1 or FlexTT5 is used as a transmitter, it always sends out 2 triggers, one 
ControlTL trigger on a ControlTL channel, and one Standard trigger on its channel. This enables you to use 
an E-TTL II system with other manual ashes. The ControlTL system synchronizes both triggers precisely.
