NOTE!! The first time the system is connected it is best practice to do a Scan Pairing. This
will ensure that the system chooses the best available channel and also pairs itself under a
unique SSID (network name).
5. To Scan Pair the units wait for the units to establish a secure connection, indicated by a solid Power/Link light on the
Receiver. Then aim the remote at the receiver and press the Scan/Back button. You should see the lights on the Receiver
and Transmitter blink sequentially from top to bottom; then in various patterns. After about 30 seconds the Receiver will
successfully link with the Transmitter and then shut off and reboot itself. The entire process will take under 1 ½ minutes and
video will not appear on the display until the process is complete.

Multicast Mode - Pairing Additional Receiver(s) With The Transmitter (Optional)
Multicast Wireless Mode enables the Transmitter to stream AV media from one Transmitter to up to six Receivers.
Use the following instructions to pair the Receiver(s) to the current system, or follow the steps in the HDS300-R manual. The
system can have receivers added at any time.
Each Receiver will have to be paired with the Transmitter one at a time. Do not begin pairing another Receiver until the
previous Receiver has rebooted after pairing as described in the steps below. A maximum of 6 Receivers may be paired to one
Transmitter.
1. Press and hold the “Link/Source” button on the transmitter for 8 seconds. The lights will blink sequentially from top to
bottom. The transmitter will remain in pairing mode for 2 minutes or until it senses a Receiver trying to link.
2. Press and hold the “Link/Output” button on the desired Receiver for 8 seconds. The lights will first blink sequentially from
top to bottom; then in various patterns. After about 30 seconds the Receiver will successfully link with the Transmitter and
then shut off and reboot itself. The entire process will take under 1 ½ minutes and video will not appear on the display until
the process is complete. Video on the additional paired Receivers will be lost during this process.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for each additional Receiver, if any.
Note: For 3 or more Receivers the system will change its mode from single channel to bonded channel. If Receivers are
removed from the system making it 2 or fewer Receivers total, the system should be factory reset to put it back into single
channel mode. Factory reset instructions can be found on page 16.
Peer-To-Peer LAN (Wired) Mode Installation
1. Connect the LAN cable between the LAN ports on the Transmitter and Receiver.
2. Plug both the Transmitter and Receiver into power.
3. When the PeerAir™ Pro system powers up it will detect the wired connection upon power up and not enter wireless mode.
The boot process should be complete in about 45 seconds. The WiFi indicator lights on the front of both the Transmitter
and the Receiver will be solid.
Available Multicast Models

Tips
If the Transmitter and Receiver are not establishing a connection:
1. It is recommended to unplug the power to both units for 30 seconds and then plug them back in.
2. If the above tip does not assist, please reference the Factory Reset section of this manual.
If the connection has been established and the HD Flow™3 logo can be seen on the display device, but content is not playing
when initiated:
1. Ensure that source cables are properly connected.
2. Ensure the Transmitter is set to the proper input port and that the Receiver is set to the proper output port.
3. Ensure the source is operating.
4. The display device needs to be able to support the resolution of the media source that is being streamed. Utilizing the INFO
button, while connected via HDMI, will allow you to see the EDID resolution data that the display device accepts.
(Example - If the display device supports the highest resolution of 720p but the source device is outputting 1080p content,
the content needs to be downscaled to the maximum resolution of the display device, in this case 720p).
If pixelation is occuring on the screen aim the remote at the receiver and hit the Scan/Back button. The system will reboot and
scan for the best available channel.
If the HD Flow™3 logo nor the video content are being displayed, verify that the output selection on the Receiver and input
selection of the display are correct. Also, make sure cables are completely pressed into place and secure, and that the selected
source content is playing.
Indicator Lights Decoded
1. Transmitter/Receiver
• Power/Link Indicator Light:
Solid - Link between the Transmitter and Receiver(s) has been established and is ready for signal transmission.
• All Indicator Lights:
Flashing - Units are booting or resetting and establishing a secure connection for AV transfer.
Lights blinking sequentially from top to bottom - Unit is in Scan Pairing Mode searching for other PeerAir™ Pro
devices.
2. Transmitter:
• HDMI1, HDMI2, HDMI3, PC, AV - The indicator light will be lit to indicate the input that is currently selected. If the
selected input does not have a connection or the signal from the media source is not present, the selected input
indicator light will be flashing.
3. Receiver:
• HDMI, COMPO, AV - The indicator light will be lit to indicate the output that is currently selected. If no output device
is connected to the selected output port the indicator light will be flashing.
Factory Reset
CAUTION: Factory reset will revert all settings to factory defaults. It is not recommended to perform a factory reset
on multicast systems (systems with two or more receivers) as the pairing will be forgot. One will have to re-pair the
additional receivers if a factory reset is completed.
To complete a factory reset, complete each of the steps below for both the transmitter and receiver. These do not need to be
done at the same time.
1. Unplug the device from its power source.
2. Press and hold the Link/Source or Link/Output Selection button on the front panel. Plug the DC power back into the unit
being reset.
3. Continue holding the Link/Source or Link/Output Select button until the lights on the front of the unit blink at least 6 times.
4. Allow the system to re-start and show content.
How To Check S/W Version
1. Make sure the PeerAir™ Pro System is up and running.
2. Using the PeerAir™ Pro remote supplied, point it at the Receiver IR window. Press the Info/OK button. In the list of
information there will be stated “S/W Version:”

PeerAir™ Pro does not change
the video format. If you want to
change the output resolution,
you should change the format
on the external device which is
connected to the Transmitter.
3. When transmitting NTSC:480i or
PAL:576i from the Transmitter,
COMPONENT-OUT MUST be
used at the Receiver.
4. Only HDMI 480i resolution input
will provide composite AV-OUT
signal at the Receiver. For all
other resolutions, use
HDMI-OUT or
COMPONENT-OUT at the
Receiver.
5. PC-IN fully supports resolutions
noted above ONLY when
HDMI-OUT is used at the
Receiver.
