Safety Precautions
We appreciate you purchasing the WiMi6200
Before installing the product, please read the following carefully
Make sure you turn off the power before installing the WiMi6200.
Do not install under the direct sunlight or in dusty areas.
Make sure you use the product within the temperature and humidity specified in the specification.
Do not operate the product in presence of vibration or strong magnetic fields.
Do not put electrically conducting materials in the ventilation hole.
Do not open the top cover of the product. It may cause a failure or electric shock from the
components.
To prevent the unit from overheating, make sure you keep the ventilation holes at the top least
10cm from any other object. Also allow air underneath the unit and do not obstruct vent holes.
Make sure the main power voltage is correct (220V/110V) before connecting the power adapter
supplied in the box (12V DC output).
Do not obstruct ventilation holes above and below the system. Rubber feet are provided to allow
air flow below the enclosure, in addition to outlet holes at the top of the enclosure.
Do not connect video source device to the WiMi6200R and video display to the WiMi6200T.

1. Introduction
1.1 About this Manual
This user manual provides step-by-step instructions for installing and using WiMi6200. The
safeguards incorporated into this unit will protect you if you observe the following procedures
for installation, use, and servicing. The wireless version, WiMi6200TW and WiMi6200RW,
includes all the functions of WiMi6200T and WiMi6200R LAN version. So, all the explanations
about the WiMi6200T and WiMi6200R are applied to WiMi6200TW and WiMi6200RW system,
also.
1.2 Overview
WiMi6200T/R is a Full HD 1920 x1080 at 60 frames/second encoder/decoder designed to be
used for various streaming applications where high quality HD-SDI video output needs to be
sent over Wi-Fi or an IP network at low data rates. Video resolutions from PAL and NTSC up to
3G-SDI are supported as well as stereo audio. In combination with the WiMi6200R decoder
unit the WiMi6200T can additionally stream video at extremely low latencies (delay), typically
80ms end-to-end. And the WiMi6200T can be used to for real-time video streaming server for
software decoder on the PC without WiMi6200R hardware decoder. The WiMi6200T/R provides
talk-back audio port together with the virtual 2-way serial cable function, RS-422. Video and
audio data are transmitted via a 10/100 Ethernet port or Wi-Fi. Power is supplied by battery or
the 110/240V AC to 12V DC converter supplied. Below diagrams show the examples of the
WiMi6200T and WiMi6200R.

Please note:
1) Wi-Fi Channels 36 (5180MHz) and 44 (5220MHz) are intended for indoor use per
FCC regulations, use limited radio transmit power, and have a limited wireless
range of up to ~200-250m LOS (line of sight).
2) Wi-Fi Channels 149 (5745MHz) and 157 (5785MHz) are intended for outdoor use
per FCC regulations, use full radio transmit power, and have the full wireless
range of up to ~900m LOS (line of sight).
3) Wi-Fi Channels 52 (5260MHz) and 60 (5300MHz) can only be used in countries
that allow these channels without DFS/TPC regulations. These channels are for
outdoor use, use full radio transmit power, and have a full wireless range of up
to ~900m LOS (line of sight). WiMi6200 is not yet FCC certified for these
channels and should not be used with these channels in the US until the FCC
certification is updated.
4) Starting June 2014, WiMi6200 units will ship with a default Wi-Fi channel
setting of Channel 157 (SSID = WiMi6200_03).
