FlexTT5-Nikon E Release Firmware License (FCC-US/Canada)
You will need at least 2 radios with E Release Firmware.
Each radio requires its own Firmware License.
The E Release upgrade is not available for the MiniTT1 at this time.
You can use a FlexTT5 as a transmitter in place of the MiniTT1.
This license is for an FCC frequency (North or South America) Transceiver. If your radio says "CE" on the label,
please purchase a CE license instead.
Important information: Please make sure you enter your email address correctly at checkout. The license(s) will be assigned to that email address. After purchase, you will receive a confirmation email from *LPA Design* (PocketWizard's parent company) with further instructions. The upgrade is completed through the PocketWizard utility via a USB connection with a computer, either a PC or Mac. It cannot be done on a smartphone or tablet. You will need a mini B to USB data cable for the upgrade. An upgrade must be purchased for each radio and will be assigned to the radio's serial number upon installation. Once assigned, it is non-transferable.
