The transmitter and receiver display different contents in the configuration setting interface: the transmitter only displays "PAIR", and the receiver displays "CONF", "PAIR" (Fig 3 , Fig 4). 2. In one transmitter to one receiver mode, receiver setting is HOST mode. In one transmitter to multi-receivers mode, one receiver setting is HOST mode, other receivers are all been set in SLAV mode. In one transmitter to multi-receivers mode, the HOST mode receiver must be on. 3. The setting default options of receiver CONF is HOST.

At the bottom of the screen, "PLEASE REBOOT" prompts to REBOOT.After that, setting is ok. 4. To set several receivers to receive signal from one transmitter simultaneously (one transmitter to multi-receivers mode), we need to set all receivers except for "HOST" mode to "SLAV" mode, and then, push the five- direction switch up and down, select "SLAV" and press the five- direction switch. At the bottom of the screen,
"PLEASE REBOOT" prompts to REBOOT.After that, setting is ok. The receiver which have been set to SLAV mode also need to be paired with corresponding transmitter, see details in manual 6. Pairing. 5. Support firmware upgrade via USB. 6. Both transmitter and receiver support manual switching of frequency points. 5. Setup connection Connect the SDI in/HDMI in interface of the FLOW2000 transmitter to the SDI out/HDMI out of the camera or video output device. Connect the SDI out/HDMI out interface of the FLOW2000 receiver to the SDI in/HDMI in of the monitor or switch station. Connect the Power supply of FLOW2000 transmitter and receiver, the "Power" light will light up, the OLED screen will display " WAIT" , and then jump to the boot interface, as shown in figure 1. Start the machine and wait for a period of time. The transmitter and receiver have recognizable signal input and establish connection, and the "Link" and "Video" lights are constant on. If the transmitter and receiver have recognizable signal input but fail to establish a connection, the "Link" light will flash. Remark 1. When the FLOW2000 transmitter and receiver are powered, the power switch need to be set toON. 2. FLOW2000 transmitter supports SDI input and HDMI input, and it will automatically detect the interface with input video. If both SDI and HDMI have input signal, it will give priority to SDI video, and the corresponding receiver SDI/HDMI output interface output signal simultaneously. 6. Pairing Connect the SDI in/HDMI in interface of the FLOW2000 transmitter to the camera or video output device. Connect the SDI out/HDMI out interface of the FLOW2000 receiver to the SDI in/HDMI in of the monitor or switch station. Connect the FLOW2000 transmitter and receiver power supply, The "Power"
light is on, waiting for the interface to jump to the main interface. Push the five-direction adjustment keys of the transmitter and receiver respectively to the right to the "PAIR" interface, the pairing interface of the transmitter shown in Fig 6; push down the five-direction adjustment key of the receiver to select "YES", as shown in Fig 7. Then press down the five-direction adjustment keys of the transmitter and receiver respectively to select "YES" to confirm the pairing. During the pairing, the "Link" lights of the transmitter and receiver flash quickly. After pairing successfully, the "Link" indicator stops flashing and enters the encrypted transmission state. Remark 1. When pairing, the transmitter and receiver need to be paired at the same time. 2. During normal use, ensure that the wireless device used has been paired and successfully paired. 3. The paired transmitter and receiver will be automatically connected after booting up. It is no need to pair again. 4. Please keep the transmitter and receiver in distance of 1-2m to avoid pairing failure. 5. Please do not use more than 4 groups of device under the same environment to avoid interference. Fig.7 Fig.6 6. In one transmitter to multi-receivers mode, when SLAV mode receiver and transmitter are paired, the "HOST"
mode receiver must be powered on. 7. The way to get the best effective of Wireless Transmission Set the antenna on both transmitter and receiver vertically straight up, no request to spread. If installed flat, still keep the antenna vertically straight up to extend transmission distance and stabilize transmission quality. (Fig.9) Fig.9 Set the receiver as high as possible to avoid interference. Avoid walls, trees and water to reduce signal attenuation. 8. 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 No display Possible causes Solution is not receiver transmitter The powered on The antennas are not installed properly and screwed tightly Bad connection of video cable Videoformatisnotsupported Check power connection and switch on the transmitter and receiver Install the antennas properly and screw tightly of both transmitter and receiver Check video cable connection of both transmitter and receiver Change the output video format of the camera Bad connection with video cable Reconnect reliably PoorVideoquality The wireless transmission is disturbed by environment The transmission distance is out of effective range for 1 minute or Wait transmitter and receiver reboot the Close the transmitter to the receiver 9.
