Pocketwizards or devils? HELP!

[snapcracklepop]

Hello to you all, I wonder if anyone can heeelp me. I recently got 2 pocketwizards for my wireless setup. but for the life of me I can't get them to behave! When on my camera (canon 60d) and flash (580 exii) they speak to eachother but in their own little language and do not do anything I tell them. I've read the manual 'til I'm cross eyed and been on the PW site to install and update them. they will trigger but I just can't get to anything else, for example slow strobe which I was always able to do with flash on camera. what am I doing wrong? Please, I need help!:bang:

Hi Val,

try putting this in the Lighting and Studio section and you will get plenty of help. It will also help if you identify your location within your profile, so people will know where you are and you may get some local help. Hope you enjoy the site, it will help you a lot. Also fill in your camera details - that helps as well. Good luck
