6.3. Linking multiple transmitters with multiple receivers
When multiple receivers need to be linked up with different transmitters, repeat the process in 6.1.,
but turn off all receivers you do not wish to pair up. For example:
-
If you have 2 transmitters and 10 receivers, pair the first transmitter to 5 receivers, while the last
five are turned off.
-
After that, turn the last five receivers, and pair them to the second transmitter.
NOTE:
This will not affect any receiver that has already been paired up.
6.4. Switching FLEX mode
All units identified as a transceiver can be changed between transmitter or receiver – the units
capable to operate in both modes are listed in chapter 2.
FLEX mode determines if the unit is used in transmit mode (TX) or receive mode (RX):
1.
Press the red function button rapidly 5 times.
2.
Press and hold the red function button for at least 3 seconds.
3.
The
LINK
and
DATA
LEDs will flash alternating.
4.
Each time you press the red function button you will step through the available modes, this
will be indicated by a flashing
RX
or
TX
LED.
5.
Press and hold the red function button
Changing FLEX mode of an F-2 unit:
In an F-2 unit the FLEX mode works the same as above, however both universes are controlled using
the RADIO A red function button.
TX – TX:
Both universes operate as transmitters
RX – RX:
Both universes operate as receivers
6.5. Changing MODE
There are a few operating modes within all W-DMX
™
products using different generations of the
communication protocol. The W-DMX
TM
G6 supports several modes to maximize compatibility with
different generations of equipment. When operating as an RX the device will automatically switch to
the correct mode depending on the mode of the transmitter that is linking to it. The following modes
are supported when operating as an RX:
MODE LED
G3
Green
G4
Red
G4S
Violet
G5
Amber
CRMX
