Wireless Receiver Positioning Guide
Signal can be blocked by large objects. Ensure
Camera has clear line-of-sight to Receiver.
The signal can pass through windows. Avoid
facing antenna towards windows, and opt for
line of sight positioning.
Camera and Reciever must be in the same
room, within line-of-sight of each other.
Mount Wireless Receiver high-up on display
for best signal reception.
DO NOT hide Receiver behind display. Reciever
must have open line of sight with Camera.
In enclosed rooms, signal can bounce off
walls, so Camera’s antenna doesn’t always
have to directly face Receiver.
Sitting or standing in front of Camera’s antenna
can cause signal drop. Do not stand between
Camera and Receiver.
Do not position Recever in places where
chances of signal interruption are greater.
Keeping Camera’s antenna unobstructed and
facing Receiver provides the strongest signal.
Rotate antennas upwards for strongest
connection and heat management.
DO NOT operate while antennas are folded
down flush to the body. DO NOT point
antennas directly into solid surfaces.
Position Receiver as high as possible to
maximize line-of-sight and minimize
chances of signal interruption.
