DMX Linking
You can link the WELL Panel to a DMX controller using a wireless DMX connection. If using other DMX-
compatible products with this product, you can control each individually with a single DMX controller.
DMX Personalities
The WELL Panel uses a wireless DMX data connection for the 4Ch , 8Ch , 12Ch , 13Ch , and 21Ch DMX
personalities.
• Refer to the Introduction chapter for a brief description of each DMX personality.
• Refer to the Operation chapter to learn how to configure the WELL Panel to work in these personalities.
•The DMX Values section provides detailed information regarding the control personalities.
Wireless Operation
In optimal conditions, the WELL Panel can operate up to 300 m (900 ft) away from the W-DMX TRX
transmitter. The W-DMX receiver in the WELL Panel must be paired with the W-DMX TRX transmitter for
wireless operation.
Initial Setup
1. Turn the W-DMX TRX transmitter on.
2. Connect the W-DMX TRX transmitter to a DMX controller.
3. Place the WELL Panel within 300 m from the W-DMX TRX transmitter.
4. Turn the WELL Panel on.
Configuration
1. From the WELL Panel control panel, go to DMX Address.
2. Select the start address, as with any other DMX compatible product.
3. Go to Wireless Setting > Operating Mode.
4. Select Receive.

WELL Panel will show a ϟ in front of the bars for 3 seconds while a connection is established.).
Product Pairing
If the WELL Panel has already been paired with the W-DMX TRX transmitter, the Signal Strength Indicator
in the middle of the LCD screen will show the strength of the signal. In this case, the WELL Panel is ready
to work in Wireless mode.
Pairing the WELL Panel and a new W-DMX transmitter:
1. From the WELL Panel control panel, go to Wireless Setting > Receive Reset.
2. Select Yes. The Signal Strength Indicator on the WELL Panel will show a ? in front of the bars.

4. Once the transmitter has found the WELL Panel, the Signal indicator on the W-DMX transmitter
will illuminate solid.
5. The Signal Strength Indicator in the middle of the LCD screen on the WELL Panel will show the
strength of the signal.
Color Blending Filter Lens
The color-blending filter lens produces a very even light that is soft at the edges. Attach the color-blending
filter lens easily with the built-in magnets.
If you are not familiar with or need more information about DMX standards, Master/Slave
connectivity, or the DMX cables needed to link this product to a DMX controller, download
the DMX Primer from the Chauvet website: www.chauvetprofessional.com
.
Once a WDMX receiver has been linked to a specific WDMX TRX transmitter, it will remain
linked to that specific transmitter until it is linked to a different one.
W-DMX operation can be interrupted or inhibited by liquid masses between the transmitter
and receiver such as water, snow, or people. For best results, keep the area between the
transmitter and receiver clear of any liquid mass.
