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

Endstop
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” on page 54 .
NOTE: Go to the RED Downloads page at www.red.com/downloads for the latest firmware version, operation
guide, and other support resources.
