I'm wanting to use my ABR800 in front of the model and a 580ex flash off camera behind the model. All I have is a RM transmitter and receiver that I use for he ABR800. Now how do I have the 580 to sync with the strobe? BTW, I am using the Canon 7D.

It might be around the same price as finding a second receiver for your old trigger set.
