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-HDU03TX (transmitter) and XW-

Introduction
The XW-HDU03 system is designed for wirelessly transmitting uncompressed 1080P HD
SDI/SDI video and audio from any camera to field monitors.
XW-HDU03TX is the transmitter, and connects to a camera.
XW-HDU03RX is the receiver, and connects to a monitor.
Video signals from the camera can be transmitted in
a distance of 200m 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 antenna
system,
it transmits uncompressed video in 200 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 200m 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 Adapter
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 200m 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.

Notes:
◆Signal transmission may be affected by the position, height and angle of
placement. If the signal is weak, please 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.
◆When an external power supply is used, power failure can be avoided by mounting
a PRO-X V type mount battery 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.

Troubleshooting
Fault
Power LED doesn’t light up
No video is displayed on
the monitor
Solutions
● Check the battery mounted is available.
● Check the power plugs of TX and RX are properly inserted
into a functioning power outlet.
● Make sure the power sources connected to TX and RX are
functional
● Make sure TX and RX are working at the same
frequency
● 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.
● On your monitor side, select the SDI/HDMI source
you connected to RX.
● Check your video resolution with SDI input from your
device is 1080P, 1080i, 720P, 576i or 480i.
● Ensure transmission distance is not over 200m (LOS).
● When all the above are checked and there’s still no
video, change to another frequency point and
restart the set.
Poor picture quality or
intermittent video play
● Check your video resolution with SDI input from your
device is 1080P, 1080i, 720P, 576i or 480i.
● Make sure cable connection is correct.
● Ensure transmission distance is not over 200m (LOS)
and there’s no interference between TX and RX.
● Check if there’s any high power intercom system
within 2 meters
● Make sure there’s no large block between the set
(e.g. walls)
● Check if there are large metal objects moving
between TX and RX (e.g. trucks)
● Check if there is any device/equipment to block or
interfere signals nearby (e.g. high power
equipments, signal tower)
● Make sure the set is not placed on a metal shelf or
similar place with metal
● Try restart the set or change the set to another
frequency point and restart the set.
No audio ● Check your monitor or other equipment’s volume is
properly set and not in “MUTE” mode.
● Make sure cable connection is correct.
● Check your video resolution with SDI input from your
device is 1080P, 1080i, 720P, 576i or 480i.
● Shutdown and restart the set.
