08/2004 WRS System Guide 23 COMP A TIBILITY OVERVIEWS These overviews show the compatibility for all possible configurations. Since the most important factor determining compatibility is the main hand unit, there are five diagrams showing what is possible when using the WMU-1, WMU-2, WMU-3, WHA-1 or WHA-2/WHA-3.
