Decided against IR in the end as I wanted to avoid the IR beam as we do some newborn shoots and parents stress enough over the lights !
I wil not be using the hotshoe on the 603 for my flash, thats for sure, really will only use to trigger teh portaflash lights, as these are low poer they will only be a few metres from the camera anyway.
Just hope they turn up now and are for pentax, as stated, dont want to blow my camera !

What is probably happening is that the lights are being triggered by the camera's pre-flash. It uses this to set the flash exposure. On some cameras this can be switched off.
An INterfit IR trigger or similar will do the trick. It just fits in the camera hotshoe and fires an IR pulse that sets off the studio lights.

There are no P-TTL triggers as far as i know.
The only way to do P-TTL wireless is to use a Pentax dictated flashgun witch support that. The commands/cuminication are all done by use of the flashlight so without separate trigger, you can use the build-in flash to trigger the flashgun or use another flashgun on the camera.
