I need some help with the Pocket Wizard Mini TT1 and Flex TT5. I have the TT1 on my 5D MK II's hot shoe and a 580EX on the TT5, i also have a 430EX i wish to fire at the same time using the 580EX to trigger it. I have the 580EX in switch on master mode and the 430EX on Slave mode but when i take a shot the pocket wizards just flash red lights once and the flashes do not go off.
So basically my setup is:
Camera + TT1 >triggers> TT5 + 580EX in master mode >trying to trigger> 430EX in slave mode
I believe it is possible, as said on PW site.
Wireless transmitters and receivers - Pocketwizard
Any help is appreciated! Thanks.

Pocket Wizard FAQ said:Q: Can I use the new PocketWizards and the Canon IR system at the
same time?
A: You can use the optical triggering of a 580EX (I or II) or an ST-E2 in
the shoe of a MiniTT1 or FlexTT5 for optically controlling slave group
A. You cannot use it for slave groups B or C. This is because the
ControlTL system is reducing the use of flash energy for
communication so you can trigger more quickly and waste less
batteries.
Any help is appreciated! Thanks.
