WDMX INTERNAL WIRELESS DMX RECEIVER SET UP

The fixture is equipped with an internal Wireless DMX Receiver, which is fully compatible
with an Elation Wireless DMX System. Access the "Wireless DMX" sub menu from the
"PERSONALITY" menu, then select desired WDMX connection function, which includes:
WDMX Off - Turn OFF Wireless DMX
Activate WDMX - Turn ON Wireless DMX
Act & Data Out - Turn ON Wireless DMX and send DMX data to wired 3/5pin outputs

When the WDMX system is "Activated" the internal DMX "IN" XLR jacks are OFF. However
the internal DMX "OUT" XLR jacks will function normally. If the fixture is powered ON with
the internal WDMX system "Activated", it will automatically scan for a wireless DMX signal
from an Elation Wireless Transmitter.
IF NO WIRELESS SIGNAL AVAILABLE, FIXTURE WILL SEND DATA TO 3/5PIN OUTPUTS!
W A R N I N G !
NEVER CONNECT A FIXTURE TO A CONTROLLER VIA A DMX CABLE
WHEN THE WDMX SYSTEM IS IN USE. THIS COULD CAUSE SERIOUS
DAMAGE TO THE CONTROLLER!!
SETTING UP THE WDMX SYSTEM
Follow the instructions included with the Elation EWDMX Transmitter and connect it to
the output of your DMX controller. To sync your fixture with the Elation EWDMX
Transmitter follow the steps below:
•! Initially, the Wireless Indicator on the fixture control panel should be solid RED.
•! Press and hold the configuration button on your EWDMX Transmitter for about 3
RED/GREEN
seconds. The
should begin to flash rapidly for about 5-10 seconds while the two systems pair.
•! Once the fixture is paired with the EWDMX Transmitter (T1), the Wireless status
indicators on the both the fixture and the EWDMX Transmitter will stop flashing and
glow solid GREEN. If paring is unsuccessful repeat the process until paring is secured.
•! The fixture will store the pairing information inside a nondestructive memory bank once
a link is created between the fixture and an EWDMX Transmitter. The fixture will
remember the paired EWDMX Transmitter even if the fixture is turned OFF for
extended periods of time.
