8.1 Using Zones


Zones can be used to control individual remote units within a channel
group. Set each of the remote units to a different zone. For example :
room lights on Zone 1, an assistant with a light pole on zone 2,
background light on zone 3.

You can prevent any of the remotes from firing by simply turning that
zone off on the local Trio at the camera.

Channel Codes

The Channel Codes allow the Trio to work
together with FreeXWires and other Trios.
Set all units that you want to work together
to the same Channel Code. If you desire
independent groups (to work in the same
area but not interfere), assign each group
it’s own Channel Code.
