WiFly EXR Battery Operation
Setting Up the WiFly:
With this feature you are able to control the fixtures with DMX with-
out the need for XLR cables. The WiFly range is up to 2500 feet/760
meters (open line of sight).
NOTE: If connecting to a ADJ WiFly fixture, please also see the
set up functions associated with your WiFly fixture.
1. Power on the WiFly EXR Battery, either by battery or power cable.
When using battery power to power the WiFly EXR Battery, put
the battery power switch in the “On” position. When using DC
power, the battery power switch must be in the “Off” position.
The antenna must be in either a up or down position and must match
position of the other antennas. All antennas up or all antennas down.
2. When using the WiFly as a transmitter connect the WiFly to a
DMX512 controller via XLR cable. When the unit is transmitting, the
first indicator block in the WiFly strength indicator will flash slowly.
When there is no DMX signal to transmit the first indicator block in
the WiFly strength indicator will flash quickly.
3. After the LED indicator lights up, use the dipswitches to set the
WiFly channel. The channel can be set between 0-14. See the WiFly
Dipswitch Channel Settings below to help you set your desired
WiFly channel.
4. The WiFly TranCeivers that are connected to your fixtures or the
WiFly fixtures themselves must be set to the same WiFly channel. If
the WiFly TransCeiver (receiver) connected to your desired fixture is
set up correctly, the WiFly strength indicator will show how strong the
received signal is. If need be, adjust the TransCeiver to get a stronger
signal.
