Transmission Channels
The Phottix Mitros+ OP Tx/Rx Wireless system has four transmission channels: 1,
2, 3 and 4. Signals from the OP Tx (Master) ash are sent to OP Rx (Slave) ashes
on these channels. If Master and Slave ashes are set to dierent channels the
Slave ashes will not re.

Slave mode, pressing the shutter button will re the OP Tx (Master) ash (if set to
re the ash) and ashes set to OP Rx (Slave) mode within the range of the OP Tx
(Master) ash. The camera and ash will meter the scene and re ashes in TTL
mode to properly expose the scene.
