The Ultimate Plug-and-Play Wireless Solution!

We areproud to announce the immediate availability of yet another
exciting new wireless DMX oering with the LightCaster™ W-DMX®

2.4 GHz wireless system; which consists of a W-DMX® transceiver, and
at least one W-DMX® receiver (or another transceiver unit) to receive
the signal. For those not already familiar with W-DMX®, it is a two­time award winning wireless DMX technology, created and owned by
Wireless Solution Sweden AB... and is today the un-ocial standard
for those that require the most dependable product available for
transmitting lighting control data wirelessly.

Users of the LightCaster™ W-DMX® system can expect an outstanding
wireless range of up to 500 meters (line-of-sight) for any of their
DMX512 compliant equipment, and leave any worries behind
concerning loss of signal due to its built-in FHSS technology
(Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum). FHSS are frequency hopping
techniques, in which the transmitter jumps from sub-channel to
another at a very rapid pace. This technique was rst used by the U.S.
military precisely because they are dicult to disrupt, and unless
you knew the frequency hopping sequence, practically impossible to
intercept.

Setting up a wireless DMX system with LightCaster™ W-DMX® is a very
simple procedure, with each of the two units having only a single
function control button and a power, DMX, and mode status LED
indicator. Users simply power on a transceiver to act as the transmitter,
choose one of three modes (frequencies), then power on any number
of receivers and the system will automatically sync together. For
multiple transmitter setups, it’s as simple as choosing a dierent
frequency group for the next transceiver, then powering up the next
receiver or a group of receivers. An unlimited number of receivers
can be controlled by each transceiver, each one able to control 512
channels of DMX (1 universe).

Endless setup possibilities can be achieved by using either point-2­point, or multipoint-2-multipoint operation:

• Basic point-2-point systems are used when you want to send
wireless DMX data from a console to a single receiver. As the
receiver accepts all 512 DMX channels from the transceiver, you
can easily daisy chain more xtures by cable from the xture with
the wireless connection.

• Up to 16 universes of DMX can be transmitted simultaneously
using a multipoint to multipoint approach. All receivers in a
multipoint system will listen only to the designated transmitter
without any delays or interference from the systems working
alongside.

Each LightCaster™ W-DMX® unit also features an integrated clamp
for mounting to 2” truss, is housed in a durable anodized aluminum
casing, and equipped with a POWERCON™ compatible power
connection, so no wall wart is necessary.
