1) Ensure the video source output of the camera is OK, and the HD
monitor is powered on and switched to connected video input port.
2) Ensure 2 TX antennas are installed, preferably with an orthogonal
angle to each other for best RF performance, as in figure below.
3) Ensure all input, output SDI or HDMI cables are connected.
4) Ensure both the transmitter and receiver are powered via battery or
DC input. Then turn power switch of the transmitter and receiver,
respectively, to ‘ON’. The ‘Power’ indicator will then light.
5) Ensure the frequency knobs of transmitter and receiver are set with the
same number, this will make sure the transmitter and receiver work with
same RF frequency.
6) If the camera is on and video input is OK, TX side 'video' indicator will
light

7) 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
detects 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……” as in the
figure below.
8) The system will spend 20-30 seconds constructing the link, depending on
link strength and the signal channel condition. When wireless link is
established the “RSSI” light will illuminate, indicating the current wireless
signal strength, “Video” indicators will light, and the connected HD monitor
will be playing the real-time video and audio.
