Document Status: Company Confidential
This document describes the mechanical and electrical properties, as well as the
electrical interface, of the W-DMX TRX G4 Pro L6 card.
The W-DMX system is the most advanced wireless lighting control system on the
market today. With over 250,000 units sold, and over 45 OEM customers worldwide,
the W-DMX wireless protocol has become the world’s unofficial standard for
Wireless DMX and RDM control. The G4S line contains the following key features:
1. Support for Adaptive Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum technology. This
technology allows the system to dynamically avoid other users of the radio
spectrum, in order to ensure that we do not cause interference with other radio
users i.e. WLAN. All radio cards come with this functionality as standard,
with zero-configuration required.
2. RDM support, with a full managed proxy implementation. All RDM devices,
when connected through the supporting W-DMX models will be exposed
through the system to an upstream controller automatically.
3. DataSafe and InvisiWire technologies, which collectively ensure that data is
more redundant to interference, and the system responds just as a wire would
respond.
This document is valid for L6 Pro hardware with G4S firmware.

4 Power Supply Considerations for Receivers and
Transceivers
Transceivers and receivers have very different power requirements. Please read the following
information carefully together with the electrical specifications at the end of this document.
4.1 Receivers
For a receiver only implementation a simple linear voltage regulator such as the common
7805 series is sufficient. Be sure to choose a package with sufficient cooling capabilities. A
TO-220 or D-Pak is usually a good choice.
4.2 Transceivers
As transceivers can draw high currents when transmitting, a more sophisticated solution is
generally required. It is especially important to make sure the supply can handle the brief
peaks.
The W-DMX cards have built in under voltage detection which protects the system from
permanent electrical damage, but data loss might still occur.
If the transceiver card is used as an RDM receiver, then you also need to take into
consideration the current used during transmission.
4.3 Power Indicator
The W-DMX card is equipped with an on-board green Power Indicator LED, which is lit
when the card is powered properly.
5 Interface Connectors, J1 and J3
The connectors J1 and J3 provide pins for power, DMX data, control signals and user
interface.
Pin 1, 2, and 3 of J1 will function as a DMX/RDM input on a Transmitter card and as a
DMX/RDM output on a Receiver card.
No provisions are made on the W-DMX TRX card for the secondary DMX data connections,
or any other form of data, that is sometimes carried by Pin 4 & 5 on 5 pin DMX XLR
connectors, and as such these two extra pins should never be connected to any pin on the
radio card.
5.1 Connector Types
J1 and J3 are both commonly available standard dual row 2.54mm (0.1”) pitch pin headers
J1 and J3 are located in such way so that they together fit in a 24 pin header.

6 DMX Interface and Specification
The transceiver provides a non-isolated RS-485 signal interface that is used in the R-512 unit
in parallel with an TTL level interface used in the other units where the carrier board
implement an isolated RS-485 interface.
To select TTL levels instead of RS485, pull the RS485/TTL Sel. pin (J3:12/Slot In:16) high.
Refer to the connector description for pin numbering.
Note that all normal DMX/RDM timing requirements apply regardless of signal levels.
6.1 Conformity to ANSI E1.11-2008
The W-DMX G4S conforms to the USITT DMX-512A standard with the following
specifications:
6.1.1 §10.5.3 Loss of data handling procedure.
6.1.1.1 Loss of DMX or Radio Link
Recovery of DMX at the receiving end after loss and resumption of DMX signal at the
transmitter is within 5 ms.
Recovery after complete loss of the radio link is less than 50ms when there are normal
reception conditions.
A W-DMX TRX receiver card will turn its DMX/RDM output into high impedance state
upon loss of DMX at the transmitter, or loss of radio link at the receiver.
The W-DMX G4S radio protocol employs what is known as Data Safe which has redundancy
on the packets sent over the air and send each DMX slot at least twice, and distributes them
on different frequencies, thereby greatly improving reliability and data fidelity, and greatly
reducing the chance of data loss caused by spurious interference when compared to other
Wireless DMX products. However, no radio system is 100% noise proof and if higher data
reliability where no bytes can be allowed to be wrong, the user needs to implement some kind
of error correction scheme above the DMX layer.
6.1.1.2 Loss of Power
Configuration information is stored in non-volatile memory and will not be lost upon loss of
power to the card. This information includes system setup and settings for power level and
frequency hopping pattern, as well as connection information for the previous transmitter the
unit was connected to. The non-volatile memory will retain its information for a minimum of
10 years without power.
Upon loss of power to the card the RS-485 DMX ports of the device will go into a high
impedance state, as mandated by the DMX standard.
Resumption of wireless transmission and reception of data takes place within a second after
power is reapplied to the card, depending on configuration.
6.1.2 §10.5.4 Packet processing latency.
The W-DMX systems have an average latency of 3ms from when data comes in to the radio
transmitter to when data is transmitted from the radio receiver when running in G4S radio
mode.

6.1.3 §10.5.5. NULL START Code functionality.
The W-DMX system forwards all packets regardless of start code in G4S mode, with the
exception of RDM start codes, which are processed internally on RDM enabled devices. In
other radio modes only NULL START Code packages is forwarded.
6.1.4 §10.5.6 Slot footprint.
The W-DMX system has a slot footprint of zero.
7 User Interface
The W-DMX system offers the following user interface options:
1. A push button (called function switch) and one or more status LEDs.
2. Overlay Interface
3. RDM interface
IMPORTANT! The Function Switch and the LED Indicator are the minimum
requirement for a working implementation. Without a way to interact with the system
the user may be left with an inoperable device.
7.1 Function Switch
The function switch can be a simple momentary push button connected between pin J1:4 and
ground or a transistor controlled by a micro controller. Refer to the table below for exact
timings required.
7.1.1 Link
When the button is pressed for a brief period of time the transmitter will link unlinked
receivers within range.
7.1.2 Unlink
On a transmitter holding the button for more than 3s and then releasing it will cause any
linked receivers to unlink.
On a receiver holding the button for more than 3s will cause that receiver to unlink.
7.1.3 Transceiver direction
Cards read the state of pin J1:4 at start up and will, if the pin is low, switch mode. A receiver
becomes a transmitter and vice versa. When J1:4 is held low at boot, the boot loader will be
bypassed, giving control to the main program immediately. Thus the pin only has to be held
low for a very short period of time.
7.1.4 Function Switch Timing
The functionality provided by the Function Switch input and its timing parameters are
described in the table below.

7.1.5 Status Indicator LED
The Status LED indicates the current status of the wireless connection and the presence of
DMX data. The status is valid after start-up process has finished after ~1.7s (worst case) from
power on
The LED is active high, and should be connected between J1:5 and ground, for example J1:7
via a series resistor.
The LED output can deliver a maximum of 15mA. For the average LED a series resistor of
330ohms will work well.
The indications below are valid during steady state, that is in normal running mode after the
boot loader has finished.
/ “Off” denotes a dark LED and / “On” denotes a lit LED.
7.1.5.1 LED Indication - Receiver:
7.1.5.2 LED Indication - Transmitter:
Continuously Off = not assigned to a transmitter
On 900ms / Off 100ms = assigned to a transmitter, but no DMX present
Continuously On = assigned to a transmitter and DMX present
On 100ms / Off 100ms = link to transmitter lost or linking to transmitter
On 900ms / Off 100ms = no DMX present
Continuously On = DMX present
On 100ms / Off 100ms = linking receivers
On 500ms / Off 500ms = unlinking all receivers

7.2 LED Overlay Interface, L6 only
This interface is implemented on the W-DMX BlackBox/WhiteBox range.
The overlay interface consists of an SPI interface that shifts out data for the LEDs as
described below. To avoid flicker a latched shift register is recommended.
The SPI speed is 2.5MHz and Overlay CS is pulled high before the output start and pulled
low after the SPI output has ended.

7.3 W-DMX RDM Interface
The W-DMX transceivers can act as a managed RDM proxy. Please see the separate
document “W-DMX RDM Manual” for details.
8 In System Software updates (Boot Loader Support)
The W-DMX device is equipped with a so called boot loader which allows the end user to
upgrade the device to a new software version even when installed in a fixture.
When power is applied to the W-DMX device the boot loader is entered and the Status LED
is lit as an indication. In this mode it waits for a sync signal from a W-DMX USB Dongle. If
no signal is received within 0.5s normal operation is resumed and the system enters the main
program.
If no valid program is found on the W-DMX card, for example because of an interrupted
upgrade, the Status LED will blink slowly to indicate this.
During software upgrade the Status LED blinks once for every valid packet received.
When software update is performed, configuration settings on the device is not affected and
therefore the software lock that disable 2.4 functionality is not affected.
8.1 Design considerations
Designing for boot loader compatibility requires a few considerations that might not normally
be included in a simple receiver setup:
8.1.1 Bidirectional connection
In a simple fixture external DMX ports might not be present. For the boot loader to be able to
communicate with the USB Dongle a bi-directional connection is required between the DMX
terminals of the W-DMX device and an external connector.
Some fixtures offer an external XLR connector for DMX input, often to a separate UART on
the uC. This will not work as the boot loader requires unhindered control of the data lines.
Also, most repeaters/splitters will not work as the boot loader protocol uses the non-DMX
data rate of 57.6kbps.
8.1.2 A means of resetting the device
Since the W-DMX device enters the boot loader at start up, some way to restart the device is
required in order for upgrades to work. This can be done either by power cycling the W-DMX
card or by pulling the RESET pin low on an L6 card.
If the fixture controls the power state of the W-DMX device care must be taken to ensure that
the data lines are available to the device at start up.
