W-DIM 4-Channel Wireless Dimmer

The RC4Wireless W-DIM for W-DMX is a low-voltage 4-channel wireless dimmer. It communicates with Wireless Solution W-DMX transmitters and other W DMX components. W-DIM is the ideal way to add wireless dimming to an existing W-DMX system, making it easy to put lamps, motors, relays, solenoids, and more in hand-held props, moving sets pieces, and other hard-to-reach or mobile positions and locations.

W-DIM will operate with 6V to 30VDC power input and provide up to 1500W per output at 12VDC. W-DIM uses a high-efficiency switching power supply and high-efficiency pwm (pulse-width-modulation) dimming to provide high output power with minimal heat and power loss. Dimmer outputs are thermally protected and overload protected. Under most fault conditions, individual dimmers will disable themselves until the problem is corrected.

All buttons and indicators are recessed below the case surface, to avoid inadvertent operation. Buttons can be operated with a pen tip or other small pointer.
