Statements
●
instruments, it may cause interference and fault on the operation.
● The unit is approved for technical standard compliance certification as a wireless device
of radio stations with low antenna power specified under international radio wave
regulations. Therefore a license for radio station use is not required to operate this
product.
● Optimal distance of working between XW-HDU04J/04JR TX (transmitter) and
XW-HDU04J/04JR RX (receiver) is between 3 meters and 300 meters LOS (line of
sight).
Introduction
The XW-HDU04J/04JR system is designed for wirelessly transmitting uncompressed
1080P HD SDI/SDI video and audio from camera to field monitors.
XW-HDU04J/04JR TX is the transmitter, and connects to a camera.
XW-HDU04J/04JR RX is the receiver, and connects to a monitor.
Video signals from the camera can be transmitted in a distance of 300m without cables. The
director, producer and even film crew can see exactly what the camera is shooting in real
time.
It works on 5.1GHz ~ 5.9GHz band radio frequencies and there are 0~9, total 10 frequency
points for selection.
With omni-directional and high efficiency antennas, it transmits uncompressed video in 300
meters LOS with less than 1ms latency.
Features
1.Video transmitted in real time with latency less than 1 millisecond.
2.Fully uncompressed 1080P video.
3.High definition video with embedded sound.
4.SDI input /output, automatically detects HD-SDI and SD-SDI video.
5.Transmission distance within 300m LOS.
6.0~9 total 10 frequency point selections on 5.1GHz~5.9GHz.
7.Power can be supplied by V type or 3-Stud mount Lithium ion battery or by AC
adaptor.
8.Back-up power failure function enables immediate and automatic switching to a
connected battery if the external DC connected power is disconnected
Note: The transmission distance may vary depending on surroundings, radio
wave conditions, etc. The transmission distance of approximately 300m is
not guaranteed.
In locations with many other devices operating in 5GHz frequencies,
operation of the set can be affected, and video may be interrupted.
Never use the unit nearby an aircraft, medical devices or other high-accuracy electronic

Wireless Video Transmission
1.Install Antennas
TX: Screw three antennas (rubber duck antennas) to
antenna connectors.
RX: Screw six antennas (blade style rubber duck antenna)
to antenna connectors.
2.Cable Connect
Connect camera’s SDI output connector to the SDI input of
TX with SDI cable.
Connect RX HDMI/SDI output connector to the monitor ’s
HDMI/SDI input with HDMI/SDI cable. A second SDI output
connector on RX is available for other equipment.
3.Select Frequency Point
Use frequency points selector dial to select the frequency
point. There are 0-9, total 10 frequency points on both
the TX and RX. To enable the transmission, the frequency
selector dials on TX and RX have to be at the same
position prior to operating wireless transmission.
In case of changing to another frequency, power cycle the set after selecting the
frequency.
* For different sets of XW-HDU04J/04JR, frequency
selector dials have to be at different positions.
4.Power the Set
For XW-HDU04J,both TX and RX can be powered by using V Type or 3-Stud mount
battery.
For XW-HDU04JR, TX can be powered by DC6-17V via DC IN cable. RX can be
powered by using V Type or 3-Stud mount battery.
Turn on power switches of TX and RX, the power LEDs light in green.
5.Link and Transmit
After the input signal identified, VIDEO LED and NET LED light up.
When signal link between TX and RX is established, NET LED on TX flashes, and
VEDIO LED on RX lights up.
Video signal intensity has five LEDs to indicate the intensity of RX received signal
from MIN to MAX.

Notes:
◆ Signal transmission may be affected by the position, height and angle of
placement. If the signal is weak, look for the best condition by adjusting the
location, height of the unit.
◆ When TX and RX are used very closely to each other (less than 3m as an
example), the received signal becomes too strong and may make the video
unavailable.
◆ Transmission may be interfered if there are other 5GHz wireless devices in
operation nearby.
◆ For XW-HDU04J,when an external power supply is used, power failure can be
avoided by mounting a PRO-X V Type or 3-Stud mount lithium ion battery to the
set at the same time. If the external power supply fails, operation continues via
battery power.
◆ If the video works improperly, restart the set (TX and RX) and try again.
◆ When wireless transmission begins, the set takes about 15-20 seconds to start
its system. During this period of time, do not operate RX.
◆ Do use TX and RX of the same serial number in pairs.

Solutions
● Check the battery mounted is available.
● Check the power plugs of TX and RX are
properly connected to a functioning power
outlet.
● Verify that the proper cable has been
selected and installed between the TX input
and your SDI output.
● Make sure your camera connected with TX
has been powered.
● Select the right SDI or HDMI video source
on the monitor when connect to RX.
● Check your video resolution with SDI input
from your device is 1080P, 1080i, 720P, 576i
or 480i.
● Check VIDEO LED and NET LED on your TX;
if VIDEO LED doesn’t light up, check the
input signal; if VIDEO LED lights up, but NET
LED doesn’t light up, check TX/RX antennas
installation and their directions.
● Ensure transmission distance is not over
300m (LOS).
● Check your video resolution with SDI input
from your device is 1080P, 1080i, 720P, 576i
or 480i.
● Check TX/RX antennas installation and their
directions.
● Ensure transmission distance is not over
300m (LOS) and there’s no interference
between TX and RX.
● Shutdown and restart the set.
volume is properly set and not in “MUTE”
mode.

●
Shutdown and restart the set.
