So the correct way is to do both in the sunlight:
1. Make certain something is plugged into the 1/4" phone jack on the back as it disables the slave (i.e. Just a regular 1/4" phone plug not wired up from Radio Shack?).
Yes. Or you can use the 1/4" cord that came with the recievers.

2. Use the CyberCommander remote in the phone jack too?
If you want remote output control, yes.

I don't know anything of the PocketWizards or where they plug into the Ultras (1/4" jack or the phone jack?) as I may move to them for outdoors since the CyberCommander transmitter's LCD was too weak to see in the sun even cranked up plus the glare.

If you are looking to just fire them, again, the Cyber Commander will act as a basic transmitter, without the need to see the screen. All you will need to do is ensure all remotes match in frequency before the shoot, and connect the recievers using the 1/4" plug and not the telephone cord. Back panel adjustments can be made on the light in that case. Or you can get a $60 CST to use as the basic transmitter and forego the Cyber Commander. No need to invest into a second triggering system when what you have will achieve the same thing.
