Functions

DMX-WTR transmitter

1. XLR 3 pin male connector
2. 5 volt power input
3. ID key LED indicator
4. ID key button
5. Removable antenna

DMX-WRE receiver

1. XLR 3 pin female connector
2. 5 volt power input
3. ID key/power button
4. Antenna/ID key LED indicator

Operation

1. Power up the DMX-WRE unit(s) by connecting the power supply and pressing the Power button once (press twice quickly to turn it off).

2. Now power up the DMX-WTR unit by connecting the power supply.

3. Connect the DMX-WTR to the DMX source. If using a fixture with a built-in transmitter, turn it on at this time.

4. Connect the DMX-WRE unit(s) to the desired fixture(s).

5. Press the ID key on the DMX-WTR to indicate the ID setting. Press again to set the ID. To change the ID value, press the key button until the desired value is found. To set the ID for the DMX-WRE, follow the procedure above. Please note that the ID needs to match on both the DMX-WTR and DMX-WRE. If your fixture has a built in transmitter and you are only using a DMX-WRE unit, it’s ID should match the fixture’s ID. When the units are used in the future, they will remember the previously used ID.

6. RED

7. GREEN

8. YELLOW

9. BLUE

10. PURPLE

11. TURQUOISE

12. WHITE

13. The DMX-WTR will automatically look for and choose an interference free channel which it will also assign to the DMX-WRE. If there is over 10% interference, the DMX-WTR will switch to another channel and set the DMX-WRE to that same channel. If the whole frequency is occupied, the DMX-WTR will switch to frequency hopping mode.

14. The LED on the DMX-WTR will blink RED slowly until communication is established with the receiver. The status LED on the DMX-WRE unit(s) will flash GREEN slowly until communication is established.

Pairing the DMX-WTR Transmitter to a DMX-QR Receiver

The DMX-WTR uses a color coded system for syncing and the DMX- QR uses a number ID system. Follow the steps below to sync the transmitter to the receiver.

1. Power up the DMX-WRT unit by connecting the power supply and pressing the Power button once.

2. Now power up the DMX-QR unit by connecting the power supply.

3. Connect the DMX-WTR to the DMX source.

4. Connect the DMX-QR unit to the desired fixture.

5. Press the ID key on the DMX-WTR to indicate the ID setting. Press again to set the ID color. To change the ID color, press the key button until the desired color is found.

6. Press the ID key on the DMX-QR to indicate the ID setting. Press again to set the ID value. To change the ID value, press the key button until the desired value is found.
   DMX-WTR ID Color and Corresponding DMX-QR ID Value:

7. RED = ID 1

8. GREEN = ID 2

9. YELLOW = ID 3

10. BLUE = ID 4

11. PURPLE ID 5

12. TURQUOISE = ID 6

Please note: The DMX-WTR has 7 ID channels and the DMX-QR has 16 ID channels. Only the first 7 channels on the DMX-QR are used. If you go past the 7th channel, your DMX-QR will cease communicating with the DMX-WTR. In order to reestablish communication, you must cycle through the additional 9 channels until you reach channel 1.
