OLED Display menu

• Initial interface (One-to-one mode)
  When no signal input, the transmitter is consistent with the receiver display content. See Fig. 1

• Initial interface (One-to-one mode)
  When Transmitter and receiver video signal con­nection normal, the transmitter is consistent with the receiver display content. See Fig. 2.

• Initial interface (One-to-multi mode)
  When the transmitter has no signal input, see Fig. 3

• Initial interface (One-to-multi mode)
  When the transmitter video signal is connected normally, as shown in Fig. 4

• Initial interface (One-to-multi mode)
  When the receiver has no signal input, see Fig. 5

• Initial interface (One-to-multi mode)
  When the receiver video signal is connected normally, as shown in Fig. 6

Tips:

1. Using joystick(up and down) to change frequency channel, 7 channel in total.
2. After changing to One-to-multi mode, There will be a “M” show on the bottom

• Interface changing
  • Changing interface in transmitter via usingjoystick(left and right),see fig .7,8,9.
  • Changing interface in receiver via usingjoystick(left and right),see fig .7, 9.

Tips:

  1. The menu content of transmitter and receiver is different: Quality mode and wall through mode can only be selected in transmitter, see fig.8
  2.  The”MULTI CAST” should change to “ON” in both transmitter and receiver to open one-to-multi mode.(Both transmitter and receiver need to choose “MULTI CAST ON”)
  3. Support firmware upgrading via USB interface.
  4. Both transmitter and receiver support manually switch frequency channel.
  5. Factory setting is “MULTI CAST OFF”.
  6. Choose “MULTI CAST ON” (The transmitter need to pair with every receiver before using one-to-multimode)

Pairing

1. Switch on both FLOW6500 transmitter and receiver; The “POWER” indicator light in every receiver should light up when there are multiple receiver, Waiting for jumping to main interface.
2. Right pushing the joystick to “PAIR” interface and choose “YES” in both transmitter and receiver, the”LINK”indicator flashing quickly during pairing(Every receiver should pair with the transmitter separately when using one-to-multi mode) .
3. “LINK” indicator will stop flashing after pairing successful. Device in encrypted transmission state.

Tips:

1.  Transmitter and receiver should pair in the same time. Every receiver should pair with the transmitter separately when using one-to-multi mode.
2. Make sure every receiver have already paired successful before using one-to-multi mode.
3. The paired receiver and transmitter, automatically connected after boot, no need to pair again.
4. Keep 1-2 m distance between transmitter and receiver when pairing to avoid pairing failure.
5. Do not using more than 4 group wireless transmission device to avoid disturbing.

Connection

1. Connecting SDI IN/HDMI IN interface of FLOW6500 transmitter with SDI OUT/HDMI OUT interface of camera or video output device. Connecting SDI loop out interface of FLOW6500 transmitter with SDI IN interface of monitor or switcher.
2. Connecting SDI OUT interface of FLOW6500 receiver with SDI IN interface of monitor or switcher. When using one-to-multi mode, every SDI OUT interface of receiver should be connected with SDI IN interface of monitor or switcher.
3. Switch on both FLOW6500 transmitter and receiver, “Power”indicator light up, OLEO screen show “WAIT … “then jump to initial interface, see fig.l or fig.3;Wait until “Link” and ”Video” indicator light up, the transmitter and receiver have identifiable signal inputs and connected successfully. If the transmit ter and receiver have identifiable signal inputs but fail to establish a connection, the “link” indicator will flash.

Tips:

1. After powering the FLOW6500 transmitter and receiver, dial the power switch on the product to “on”
2. FLOW6500 transmitter support SDI video signal input and HDMI video signal input, The system automatically identify input video interfaces. System will choose SDI video signal when both HDMI and SDI interface is connected.
3. When multiple receivers are used simultaneously in the same environment, ensure that multiple wireless devices have identifiable signal input.

High quality mode & Wall through mode

1. Connecting SDI IN/HDMI IN interface of FLOW6500 with SDI OUT/HDMI OUT interface of camera or video output device. Connecting SDI loop out interface of FLOW6500 transmitter with SDI IN interface of monitor or switcher.
2. When using one-to-multi mode, every SDI OUT interface of receiver should be connected with SDI IN interface of monitor or switcher.
3. Switch on both FLOW6500 transmitter and receiver, every receiver should be switch on when using one-to-multi mode. “Power” indicator light up, OLEO screen show”WAIT … “then jump to initial interface, see fig.l or fig.3;Wait until “Link” and “Video” indicator light up, the transmitter and receiver have identifiable signal inputs and connected successfully, right push the joystick to “PREF” interface, see fig.11.
4. It is recommended to choose high quality mode for wireless devices under normal operating conditions, such as better environment, stronger signal, or more than one set of wireless devices under the same scene.
5. Wall through mode is recommended for wireless devices under complex operating conditions, such as poor on-site environments, high distance barriers and only 1-2 sets of wireless devices in the same scene. (If more than one set is used in the same scene, it is recommended to use a high quality mode to reduce interaction).

Tips:

1. When wireless devices under normal operating condition, choose High quality mode can get a better video quality, but transmission distance will be cut.
2. When wireless devices under complex operating condition, choose Wall through mode can get a long transmission distance, but the video quality will be cut.

The way to get the best effective of Wireless Transmission

1. Set the antenna on both transmitter and receiver vertically straight up.(See Fig.12), Set the receiver faces the transmitter to extend the transmission distance and stabilize the transmission quality.

2. Put the receiver as high as possible to reduce the disturbance.

3. Avoid walls, trees and water to reduce signal attenuation.

Trouble shooting

If the receiver failed to output video correctly, the possible causes are as below; please find the solution from following chart:

The receiving

video

| Possible causes|

Solution

---|---|---

No display

| The transmitter or the receiver Is not powered on| Check power connection and switch on the transmitter and receiver
The antennas are not installed properly and screwed tightly| Install the antennas properly and screw tightly of both transmitter and receiver
Bad connection of video cable| Check video cable connection of both transmitter and receiver
Video format is not supported| Change the output video format of the camera

Poor Video quality

| Bad connection with video cable| Reconnect reliably
The wireless transmission is disturbed by environment| Wait for 1 minute or reboot the transmitter and receiver
The transmission distance is out of effective|

Put the transmitter closer to the receiver
