Just wondering if the Elinchrom Skyports can trigger other lights such as off camera flash on a rf602 at the same time as their studio lights...
 
Probably, I used to use sky ports and pocket wizards in conjunction with each other and everything would fire in time :), so I dont see why the rf602's would be any different. :)

No. I don't know of any transmitter that will trigger other brands of receiver, unless it's specifically stated.
 
Surely its just a radio signal? Isn't this why you have the option to do different combinations with the switches so you don't activate other people's lights...

To avoid other users of the same brand and model triggers, and also to move away from interference from poorly isolated electrical equipment.
 
If you have a transmitter with a hotshoe on (like a Phottix Strato) then you could fit the Skyport transmitter to that so the camera fires both transmitters, sending fire signals to both types of recievers.
