MANAGE LENS PROFILES

The W.M.D. automatically reads lens information and renames the profile on import. This effectively removes

any custom profile names. (Example: A renamed RED PRO PRIME 50mm lens profile is automatically renamed

to RED-PRIME-50mm.pfl when imported to the W.M.D.) For this reason, we recommend saving .pfl files in cus-

tom named folders, rather than changing the lens profile name.
Once you have exported lens profiles from the W.M.D. save them to your computer.
1. Insert the microSD card into your computer. Use a microSD to SD adapter, if necessary.
2. Save the .pfl files to a safe location on your computer.

A. Create a new folder on your desktop and label it appropriately. (Example: “WMD_Jun8”)
B. Place .pfl files into the new folder.

ACCESS W.M.D. DIAGNOSTIC DATA

Hardware status data for each W.M.D. component is found in the “About” menu. If you contact RED for support,

a RED representative may ask you for the hardware status of the W.M.D.
1. In the W.M.D. main menu, select About.

ERASE SETTINGS ON THE W.M.D.

If you are experiencing problems with the W.M.D. or for other reasons want to reset the unit to factory default

settings, perform the following steps:
1. In the W.M.D. main menu, select Options.
2. Select Erase Settings.

NOTE: Erasing settings will delete all existing User profiles and other adjustments that have been made on

the W.M.D. It is recommended that you export User profiles and save them to your computer before per-

forming this operation.
