Can a T5i trigger a 600EX-RT flash by 'radio' when the 600EX-RT is off the camera?

I though the 430EX III-RT could not be used as a radio master/transmitter, only as a reciever.

Yeah, that's what I thought too (which is why I weasel-worded my suggestion). But while I have a 600EX-RT, I've never used (or even seen) a 430EX III-RT.

The 430EX III-RT can function as a Master or Slave when in radio wireless, but, can only function as a slave in optical wireless.

 

From the user manual.

I assume that far right column header has a typo.  Shouldn't it be 430EX II?  BTW, B&H is sold out of 430EX IIs.

There is a 430EX III (non-RT) for sale in countries where the radio trigger would be illegal, due using radio frequencies. 430EX III.JPG
