WIRELESS MOTOR DRIVER
(W.M.D.)
W.M.D. OVERVIEW
The RED
®
Wireless Motor Driver (W.M.D.) is the brain of the RED 3-Axis Lens Control System. The W.M.D. receives
control signals from the RED Tactical Hand Controller (T.H.C.) to drive up to three (3) RED Lens Control Motors. With
the W.M.D., you can adjust the following settings for each motor:
Torque
Direction
Type/Model
Backlash
End Stop
R3D
®
metadata integration is a standard on the W.M.D., allowing your recorded lens control information to carry over
into post production. Expansion ports, tool-free installation, and start/stop connectivity make the W.M.D. versatile and
easy to use.
NOTE:
DO NOT USE the Pro I/O Module to power the RED W.M.D. The Pro I/O Module does not provide enough
power and is not designed to support the W.M.D.
NOTE:
