In the menu, the “Unlink” function follows from MODE SLV. Pressing enter takes you to a menu
showing WDMX ULNK. Press enter at this stage and the unlinking happens (note: it takes 5 seconds
or so). After pressing enter, the unit returns to the MODE SLV menu. If you don't want to unlink,
then press MENU UP or MENU DOWN and it will take the unit to the MODE menu without unlinking.
When the unit is unlinked, adding it to a Wireless Solutions transmitter box is just a matter of
pressing the button on the transmitter box for a brief period (less than 2 seconds). The lamps will
pick up after about 5 seconds and the SLAVE will show a decimal point statically illuminated in the
display (lower right corner) and also a LINK LED on the transmitter.
See Section 4.2.2 for instructions on linking to a CORE Master unit.

Brightness Control “BRI%” and LED “NORM” to “LONG LIFE”
The overall brightness level setting (NORMAL, LOW O/P or LONG LIFE) sets the overall dimmer for
the unit for all SELF operating, SLAVE and MASTER modes (i.e. self or external control). BRI% then
allows further control once this is set.
NORMAL sets the overall brightness of the unit to 100%.
LOW O/P sets overall brightness to 70%
LONG LIFE is 40%.
NORMAL operating mode should give over 10-12 hours life on a normal colour cycle. This can
provide extra brightness for larger illuminations such as architectural building lighting where
additional light throw is required. LOW O/P is recommended for normal indoor use where lifespan
will be around 30% longer. LONG LIFE can be regarded as a battery preservation mode to gain over
100% extra lifetime from a charge.
BRI% adjusts the brightness as a multiplier of the colour options in “MODE SELF” or “MODE MSTR”
and is selected as a percentage 0 to 100. It is a useful tool for conserving battery life also.

“BAT” Battery status Mode
Two options are available: one showing temperature of the battery compartment used as a failsafe
mechanism to prevent damage through over-charging. The second shows battery voltage.
Note the symbol “^” shows battery charging is active. “BATT FULL” shows when this is complete.

SHOW S/N Serial Number
This is the serial number of the unit (eg “CORE 0216”) and provides the WiFi SSID address based on
the unique serial number (its WiFi unique identity). The number is set at the factory and is unique to
each unit.
