At close range (about 50’ or 16m) antenna
orientation is not critical. Antenna orientation
matters more as distance between Transmitter
FW9T and Receiver FW8R increases.
The best mounting positions keep FreeXwire
antennas away from metal objects. Each
antenna should be parallel to all others. Vertical
FreeXwires with vertical antennas provide the
greatest range. Other orientations work almost
as well.
Also see Section ,FreeXwire Performance Guide,
for further information.
6.0 Qflash Remote Operation
FreeXWire provides wireless control of Qflash 4d or 5d series operation and settings, letting you change settings on remote
Qflashes.
In addition to Receiver FW8R and Transmitter FW9T, you will need two FW31 cables to connect each FreeXwire unit to the local
and remote Qflashes. The Qflash 4d/5d instructions manuals detail operating instructions for adjusting the settings on the
remote Qflash(es) via wireless mode.
7.0 Wireless TTL control for Digital Cameras
Receiver FW8R and Transmitter FW9T provide wireless TTL flash capability for popular digital cameras. With “Dw” series QTTL
adapters (e.g. D12w, D13w, etc.) and Qflash series 5d flashes, even the pre-flash signals from digital cameras will be sent
wirelessly to remote Qflashes. (Note: All Qflash 4d series flashes can be converted to Qflash 5d, and all D series adapters can
be converted to “Dw” series via software upgrade. Please contact Quantum for details.)
Set all Qflash’s to “TTL” mode. ”. Set Receiver FW8R Range to “NORM”
7.1 Transmitter FW9T set-up

Mount the Dw series adapter to the camera and connect its cable to the FW9T Accessory socket. Mount FW9T on a bracket or
other location.
