2. Press and hold the Focus Limit button, and toggle the power switch to Battery mode.
3. After a few seconds, release Focus Limit. Iris Limit and Focus Limit LEDs flash corresponding to the current
channel setting:
‒ Iris Limit: Flashes to represent the tens.
‒ Focus Limit: Flashes to represent the ones.
For example, if the Iris LED flashes twice and the Focus LED flashes once, the current channel is 21.
4. After LEDs stop flashing, press the Iris Limit and Focus Limit buttons to set the new channel:
‒ Iris Limit: Press to set the tens.
‒ Focus Limit: Press to set the ones.
For example, to set the channel to 14, press the Iris button once, and press the Focus button four (4) times.

WIRELESS SETTINGS
The wireless settings for the T.H.C. are managed in the W.M.D. menu. If wireless settings are changed in the
W.M.D., the T.H.C. must be connected via a wired connection to obtain the new wireless information.
NOTE: For more information, go to
“Configure Wireless Settings” on page 26 .
CONNECT TWO (2) T.H.C. UNITS
The W.M.D. supports up to two (2) T.H.C. units. Both units have full control over all adjustment functions. Use
the lens lock function to prevent both controllers from sending conflicting commands while both units are in
operation.
Connect a second T.H.C. using the same method described in
“Pair the T.H.C.” on page 37 .
INITIALIZE WITH THE T.H.C.
The motor initialization process detects each motor’s range of motion for the equipped lens and stores the en-
coder position and effective range information within the W.M.D. Once stored, the settings remain in the W.M.D.
for approximately 14 hours.
To initialize ALL motors:

Press and hold the Initialize button on the T.H.C. for two (2) seconds.
To initialize ONLY motors with unrecognized positions:

Press and release the Initialize button.

A single motor can be initialized by disconnecting and reconnecting the motor cable.
WARNING: It is important to initialize the system every time a modification is made to a lens or a motor. Failing
to perform the initialization sequence may cause severe damage to your lens, motor, or camera.
