Multiple studio flash units can often be connected to a single Pocket Wizard remote trigger.
The Pocket Wizard series of photographic flash remote triggers provides a flexible way to connect many brands of cameras and studio flash equipment without wires. Usually, a single Pocket Wizard device is connected to each flash unit, but it is possible to connect multiple flash units to a single Pocket Wizard trigger using an adapter cable. The key is to be careful about the "trigger voltage" supplied by each flash unit since some, mostly older units use very high voltages not compatible with modern flashes and electronic cameras.
Instructions
1. Plug the M3H adapter headphone-style plug into the matching opening on the Pocket Wizard. Place the Pocket Wizard on one of the flash stands or another elevated location with the antenna oriented vertically for good communication with the camera unit.
2. Place the 16-foot cord of the M3H adapter cable so that the three-way outlet is central to the flashes to be connected.
3. Connect a household-style-to-flash connector cable to each flash unit. Flash unit connectors vary. The connector could plug in like a household lamp, insert with a screw on retainer ring (PC) or plug in like a headphone connector.
4. Collect the household ends of each flash unit cable and plug each into the M3H adapter. Be careful to match the polarity of the connector; one plug blade is larger than the other.
5. Charge the flashes and press the "Test" button on the Pocket Wizard connected to the camera to test the installation.
