Camera Control Box - Help Page

Please note: If buying a complete set (1:1, 1:2, 1:3, or 1:4) they will be paired and setup ready to go out of the box. Also, if you are adding an RX to your system they will be setup as RX’s, but will just need to be paired to existing TX. The below is provided to help with clarity on how units function.

To set up 1:1, have your first unit in Rx mode and the second in Tx. This can be set using the dipswitch located inside the unit on the main board. For accessing this, take off label and unscrew the 2mm screws. If buying a TX or RX, the units will come pre configured and labeled, so opening the box should not have to happen. Press and hold the pair button (hole located on back of unit) on both units at the same time for a few seconds until they both flash. Release the buttons and you should see solid blue lights on both units. Your RX unit will also show a red LED on one side to indicate it is in RX mode.

You can also set up in 1:2, 1:3, 1:4 mode (if bought as a set, they will come already configured together). Because of the additional bandwidth, the range of the units is more limited, and all units must communicate through the RX. With this configuration it is important to be mindful about where the RX unit is. For example, in a 1:2 configuration where you have 2 cameras with a unit that is paired to 1 unit on your DIT cart, you would want to have the RX unit on the cart to ensure that one camera’s location doesn’t inhibit your connection to the other. However, if you have one camera and two users who wish to change settings (an AC and a DIT for example), you may want to keep the RX unit on camera and provide TX units to the AC and DIT so that neither is limited by the other’s range.

To set up more than one box, have your first unit in RX mode and the additional units you want to pair in TX. Power on the RX unit and your first TX, then press the pairing button on the RX and the TX units at the same time. After you’ve successfully paired the first TX, power on the 2nd TX and press the pairing button on the RX and TX at the same time. Continue this way until all of your devices are paired. When multiple TX units are paired to an RX, you may experience increased ping as devices move father away. If additional TX’s are turned off, the system will function like a 1:1 configuration. There is no option to ‘unpair’, simply pair it to another device, or switch its mode from RX to TX.
