General Warning Sign: warns the user of the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the product manual. Caution The AMN35223_PB supports two types of power input connection:
One will be the 2-pin generic connector and the second should be soldering the 2 cables directly to the LEMO holes, but do not connect them together. Overview The HD SkyLink system was designed to establish wireless HD video signal transmission without any latency over large distances. Amimon finally made this possible with revolutionary technology!
The HD SkyLink is a lightweight but still very powerful wireless HD system, which is the perfect solution for live streaming from your multicopter or from a steadycam system. The HD SkyLink transmits encoded but uncompressed signals. Broadcasting is therefore possible without any delay (latency less than 1ms). This is the ideal live streaming equipment for sports events, movies and TV productions and also industrial and inspection and monitoring related applications. Multicasting is supported - the signal of one transmitter can be received by multiple receivers at the same time, which allows parallel streaming and live preview for the camera operator during recording. You have the possibility to set the used frequencies (according to the planned usage and the frequencies assigned by the Federal Network Agency) on location via USB port. The system allows you to have full control and you can follow the legal regulations of your country or region.

This mode uses DFS frequencies as well making it flexible and easy to adjust to all different fields of use and to meet the regional and national frequency requirements and laws. For some SkyLink version the message "please wait 60 seconds" may appear on the monitor when the link is first established to inform the user that the system is searching for a free DFS frequency. In this case this message will be followed by a second identical message to inform that the system is searching for an alternative DFS frequency. Upon completion the message "Ready" will appear on the monitor. In Aerial mode a link can be established only if the systems are within close proximity to each other. If either receiver or transmitter is reset, both sides must be brought close together and reset in order to re-establish the link. Operating Frequencies FREQUENCIES [MHz]

If there is more than one registered transmitter, and the receiver failed to connect to it within a minute or two, the receiver will go into standby mode and shut down the RF. In order to connect to the desired source, press on the SOURCE button and choose the desired source. The NETWORK LED blinks rapidly and there is no display on the monitor: Power cycle the unit. If the issue remains, the device might be faulty. Please contact Amimon support team. Link cannot be established or poor video/Audio quality: Try to decrease the range between the transmitter and the receiver or remove obstacles out of the way between the transmitter and receiver.
