Wireless DMX Connection
The wireless receiving module “Nano G5 Receiver, 2.4GHz”, provided by Swedish WIRELESS SOLUTION,
only has a 2.4 GHz wireless signal receiving function. In order to establish a wireless connection, please
use the (
52001 ) W-DMX BlackBox F-1 Tranceiver G6 by WIRELESS SOLUTION. To control the status of the
wireless communication, please look at the green LED indicator light on the right-hand side of the display.
Note:
● When the Helix receives a wireless DMX signal, then this signal will also be present at its 5-pin DMX
output (05). However, the Helix has not been designed to send wireless signals. Therefore, always
connect the Helix devices to each other using a DMX cable.
Wireless DMX Problems
01) No signal from the W-DMX transmitter.
The LED indicator will blink quickly.
02) Proper connection with the W-DMX transmitter, but no DMX signal is present.
The LED indicator will blink slowly.
When the wireless DMX communication is unhindered and a DMX signal is present, the LED indicator will
always be on.
Note:
The Helix M1100 Q4 Mobile cannot receive a W-DMX signal and a DMX cable signal at the same time.
When the device is in Auto mode or Built-in Programs mode, please ensure that the paired 2.4GHz
wireless signal transmitter is OFF.
Note:
The Helix M1100 Q4 Mobile is only a W-DMX receiver and never a W-DMX transmitter.
