Wireless Motor Driver (W.M.D.)

This section includes:

W.M.D. Overview

The RED® Wireless Motor Driver (W.M.D.) is the brain of the RED 3-Axis Lens Control System. The W.M.D. receives control signals from the RED Tactical Hand Controller (T.H.C.) to drive up to three (3) RED Lens Control Motors. With the W.M.D., you can adjust the following settings for each motor:

  • Torque

  • Direction

  • Type/Model

  • Backlash

  • End Stop

R3D® metadata integration is a standard on the W.M.D., allowing your recorded lens control information to carry over into post production. Expansion ports, tool-free installation, and start/stop connectivity make the W.M.D. versatile and easy to use.

NOTE: DO NOT USE the Pro I/O Module to power the RED W.M.D. The Pro I/O Module does not provide enough power and is not designed to support the W.M.D.

NOTE: For more information on compatibility, go to 3-Axis System Compatibility.
