Now that LumenRadio has fully absorbed Wireless Solution and the W-DMX protocol, RC4 LumenDim devices are 100% compatible with W-DMX transmitters of all generations. Thus, RC4 no longer manufactures our RC4 W–DIM line of products. We continue to support previously sold devices. For new purchases, RC4 LumenDim devices are recommended for use with all generations of W-DMX systems.
All RC4 LumenDim devices manufactured since mid-2018 use a genuine LumenRadio TiMo RF module. With the latest firmware, the TiMo module is 100% compatible with all previous versions of both Wireless Solution W-DMX and LumenRadio CRMX. This includes compatibility with LumenRadio CRMX2 and their 8-universe Stardust transmitter.
RC4 LumenDim devices are not compatible with Wireless Solution configuration dongles. Firmware updates for both RC4 dimming and LumenRadio wireless are easily installed using either a LumenRadio firmware updating cable, or an RC4 Wireless CodeLoader cable.
The closest substitute for the discontinued RC4 W-DIMm3 is the RC4 LumenDimM4. The M4 provides one additional dimmer channel, and has the connection terminals and antenna port arranged slightly differently. The overall device size is identical.
The discontinued RC4 W-DIM4 is replaced with the RC4 LumenDim4, a direct replacement with all connections, indicators, and pushbuttons in the same locations. Similarly the RC4 W-DIM6 is replaced with the RC4 LumenDim6.
