Frequently asked questions

How do I reset the channel settings on my PocketWizard radios?

Hold the TEST button while powering up; a short green blink resets the channels, while holding for more than 10 seconds restores factory defaults.

How can I update the firmware of my MiniTT1 or FlexTT5?

Use the PocketWizard Utility (downloadable from PocketWizard.com) to update all ControlTL radios to the latest firmware for best functionality.

What batteries should I use for optimal performance in cold temperatures?

Use fresh high‑capacity AA batteries for the FlexTT5 and fresh CR2450/CR2354 coin cells for the MiniTT1; low temperature reduces battery life.
