Description: This is a special remote shutter release cable called a pre-trigger cable. A pre-trigger cable allows you to control your remote's shutter release with a half-press and a full-press. When a camera is "pre-triggered", it is as if the camera's shutter release is held in the half-press position or metering/focusing position.
This ACK cable allows a compatible PocketWizard radio to control the Half Press and Full Press functions independently.
Added bonus: All S-RMS1AM-ACC cables released from July/August 2013 will include a MSMM (stereo mono miniphone) adapter that converts an S-RMS1AM-ACC cable into a standard S-RMS1AM miniphone cable. This change coincides with the launch of our new retail packaging. All cables are now packaged in an eco-friendly cardboard box with recycled white labels showing both cable ends as well as the compatibility list. This replaces our old ziplock bag packaging.
A standard cable (S-RMS1AM) will work with most PocketWizard radios, but does not have the half-press button capability and is only for basic remote triggering. (Using a S-RMS1AM-ACC cable with an MSMM adapter will perform the same function as an S-RMS1AM cable.)
A pre-release or pre-trigger (-P) cable (S-RMS1AM-P) works with most PocketWizard radios. This pre-trigger cable has a switch that allows you to half-press or turn off when in camera position, but not remotely. (Using an S-RMS1AM cable with a PTMM adapter will perform the same function as an S-RMS1AM-P cable.)
Compatible with the following radios:
PlusX: Use this cable with the PlusX to trigger the camera.
Plus III: Use this cable with the Plus III's exclusive 2-step shutter release to activate or focus your remote, just like the camera's shutter button.
FlexTT5: This cable is required for relay mode with E-TTL or other remote triggering with the FlexTT5. You can use a P-cable or standard cable with a FlexTT5, but your remote camera cannot pass an E-TTL signal to Speedlites. The FlexTT5 does not support 2-stage triggering functions.
MultiMAX with -ACC connector: Activate a remote zone with your MultiMAX handset and your remote MultiMAX will activate the remote camera with this cable. As long as the zone is on, the remote camera will stay awake and respond faster and more consistently, but will also consume the camera's batteries much faster. When the remote zone is deactivated, the camera will go into normal sleep mode. The MultiMAX does not support the 2-stage trigger functions.
