Installation details and cautions



Transmitter side a) Install 2 Omni-directional and high efficiency antennas to transmitter's

RP-SMA female antenna connectors.

b) There is one1/4-20 screw in transmitter metal case, which are

located on the bottom of case. So the user can utilize a 1/4 screw to

ISO518 hot-shoe converter fix the transmitter into camera.

c) Install battery into battery buckle if your product model includes battery

buckle options; please note the battery model must match the battery

buckle type.

d) The user can also utilize a subsidiary D-type to lemo cable to get power input from an outside power source. e) All TX installation guidelines see below figure.

Installation



Receiver side a) There is one 1/4-20 screw nut in the bottom side of receiver. The user

can utilize a 7'' articulating arm and crab clam to install the receiver on

one tripod.

b) Install battery into battery buckle if your product model includes the option

of battery buckles; please note the battery model must match the battery

buckle type.

c) The user can also utilize a subsidiary D-type to 3mm lemo cable to get power from an outside power source.

d) All RX installation guidelines see below figure.

Installation



Getting started

a) Ensure the video source output of the camera is OK, and the HD monitor

is power on and switched to connected video input port.

b) Ensure all input, output SDI or HDMI cables are connected.

c) Ensure 2 TX antennas are installed, and it is better to keep TX 2 antennas

with orthogonal angle each other for best RF performance. Like below figure.

Transmitter d) Ensure both the transmitter and receiver installed the battery or DC input

port connected to outside power source. Then turn power switch of tra-

nsmitter and receiver to 'ON' respectively, then 'Power' indicator will light.

Installation e) Ensure the frequency knobs of transmitter and receiver are set with the

same number, and this will make sure the transmitter and receiver work

with same RF frequency.

f ) If the camera is on and video input is OK, TX side 'video' indicator will light g) Before RX finished wireless link with TX, 4 “RSSI” indicators and “Video”

indicators are off; when wireless link is OK, “RSSI” indicators will light first,

and “RSSI” will indicate the received RF signal strength. If the receiver d-

etects wireless video normal internally from air interface, “Video” indicator

will light. Before that, if SDI or HDMI video out port of the receiver has HD

monitor connected, it will display an OSD of “Link Connecting……” like

below picture.

h ) The system will spend 20-30 seconds on constructing the link, and real link period will depend on the current wireless channel condition. When wireless link is set up, “RSSI” light will light and indicate current received wireless si gnal strength, as well “Video” indicators will light, and then connected HD monitor will display the video and audio accordingly.

Operation instruction

The transmitter has a 3G SDI video input port and a HDMI video input port, and the system will detect valid video source automatically of SDI and HDMI port, and then switch it as main video input channel. If both SDI and HDMI have valid video input, the system will take SDI input as priority.

The receiver will calculate received RF signal strength internally and 5 “RSSI”

LEDs will be used to indicate wireless signal power and quality. The user can observe the RSSI LED status to know if the current wireless link is reliable or not. From 1 to 5 lit LEDs show RSSI from Min to Max.

Maintenance

Warning

To ensure your safety, place choose original adapters. And provide stable AC input according to this manual.

Trouble shooting

Normal problems

a) No output on display

Check TX and RX power first, and see if TX or RX battery is existed, then check if TX antenna and RX antenna installed right. After that, check 'Video' indicator, if TX 'Video' indicator is not light, then check SDI or HDMI cable is plugged in and video source is ready please. Finally may check input video format is compatible with this product specs.

b) Poor output video quality

Check if SDI or HDMI input or output cable is plugged well, then check how many receiver side 'RSSI' LEDs is lit, there should be 2-3 RSSI LED lit if the user want to get better video quality; if there is only 1 RSSI LED or no LED lit, that means the received wireless signal is weak, and should decrease the transmission distance or try to change to other frequency channels in case some exist interference.
