• 2 FlexTT5
  

I've placed the Multimax into the hotshoe of my 5d, fitted both tt5's onto my 580ex's. The problem is, the Multimax won't trigger the flashes (Flextt5).

I've placed 1 FlexTT5 onto the 5d and one flash and it work's flawlessly. But the Multimax doesn't seem to trigger the Flex's. Can anyone help? I know this may sound stupid, but hey nothing wrong to ask

By default, the FlexTT5 devices are set to receive ControlTL channels, not the Standard channels which is what the MultiMax uses. You'll need to change that by either using the Learn feature of the FlexTT5 to learn the MultiMax channel or use the PW Utility to set the FlexTT5 to receive in a specific Standard channel.

The FlexTT5 will have no problem triggering another FlexTT5 and the MultiMax because it transmits in both the ControlTL channel and the Standard channel. It just can't receive in both.
