Introduction

The DJITM Video Receiver features DJI O3 Pro video transmission and receives video signals from the transmitter. In an environment without interference or obstruction, the video receiver provides video transmission with a maximum transmission range of 6 km*, a bitrate of up to 40 Mbps, and a minimum end-to- end latency of 70 ms. It supports multiple frequency bands in both Control and Broadcast modes and simultaneously outputs multiple video signals to display devices for remote monitoring. When used with the DJI Video Transmitter or DJI Ronin 4D Video Transmitter, the video receiver can meet the filming requirements of mediums such as movies, TV series, advertisements, and documentaries.

Measured with the video transmission control system in Control mode (Broadcast mode in the transmitter device disabled) in an unobstructed environment free of interference with FCC compliance.

Linking
The video receiver must be linked to the transmitter device before use. The video transmission system of the video receiver offers Control mode and Broadcast mode for connection between the video receiver and transmitter device, which use different linking methods. Refer to the following section for instructions and linking status indicator descriptions.

Control Mode
In Control mode (with Broadcast mode in the transmitter device disabled), the video transmission system has a longer transmission distance, stronger anti-interference, and more selectable channels. The transmitter device can also receive the control signal from the video receiver when connecting a DJI Pro accessory, such as the DJI Master Wheels to the video receiver for remote control.
