By chance I found some info from pocket wizard hat states that you MUST press the test button on the tt1 after making power adjustments on the ac3. They say that changes will not take effect until this is done. I have used the ac3 for a year and never noticed any changes not taking effect. Am i the only one that never heard this before?

Sorry, I haven't been around the forums of late, but thank you for posting those screenshots.
I have not upgraded my TT5 firmware recently, so I wasn't aware of these documentation changes. I use the TT5 units, which according to the latest documentation, says you "may" need to press the TEST button to transmit the speedlight info properly. For the TT1, the documentation says you "must" press the TEST button.
That is probably why I never had any real trouble with my remote TT5 not getting the right AC3 settings. (It's never been 100% perfect, but the latest documentation makes it sound like the mismatches happen a lot more often.)
I contacted PW directly some time ago about my Mini and Flex for Canon not firing, syncing etc.
.
I was advised to ensure that both units had the latest firmware. Then
Turn everything on from top to bottom.
IE: flash, flex, then mini and take a test shot at 1/125s.
.
hope this helps.
