Front Panel Controls and Functions

Audio Outputs

A second set of audio outputs is provided next to the

front panel for use with cameras that have only one au-

dio channel enabled in the slot. One channel can feed

the connector in the camera slot, and the second chan-

nel can be connected to the external audio jack on the

camera with a cable. When the receiver is used outside

of a camera, the front panel jack can be used to feed

audio to a recorder, IFB transmitter or camera while the

rear panel outputs feed the main production mixer.
The front panel 5-pin connector (TA5M type) provides

two balanced outputs with the following pinouts:

Pin 1

Pin 2

Pin 3

Pin 4

LCD Screen

A backlit, graphics-type Liquid Crystal Display is used

to set up and monitor the receiver. The Main Window

shown here is used during normal operation, to display

RF and audio levels, transmitter battery status, pilot

tone status and diversity activity for both receivers.

MENU/SEL Button

This button is used to select menu items and enter

setup screens during setup.

PWR/BACK Button

Press the PWR/BACK switch to turn the power on.

Press and hold it until the display goes blank to turn

power off. It also functions as a “back” button while navi-

gating the various menus and setup screens to return to

the previous screen or menu item.
The firmware “remembers” whether the receiver was

turned on or off after power is disconnected, and it

returns to that state when power is restored. This allows

the receiver to power up and down as the camera or

external supply is turned on and off.
Press the PWR/BACK button from the Main Window to

briefly display the external power voltage.

UP/DOWN Arrow Buttons

The UP and DOWN arrow buttons are used to select

various options and adjust values in the setup screens,

and provide secondary functions such as locking out

the panel to guard against accidental changes.

Rear Panel and Adapters

Several different panel adapters are available to config-

ure the receiver for use with popular camera slots and

for stand-alone use. The adapters are retained by two

screws through the side panel of the housing, making

them easy to install.

Power and audio connections are made through mating

connectors on the adapter and receiver main circuit

boards.
