Operation
Once connected and correctly configured, no further changes are generally required to the system during
routine operation. Should you need to make changes to the configuration, monitor audio, preview the video
output, or access the status screens, you can do this from the receiver directly or remotely access the
receiver using a web browser.
NOTE:
All Real Freedom system components, including the camera back transmitter, can be
controlled from the receiver, or from any connected PC.
Individual component indicators
Use the indicators on the components attached to the receiver to help you to determine whether the system
is operating correctly or if there is a problem.
NOTE:
If no video displays on the receiver’s screen when the camera is operating, you should
initially check that the transmit / receive frequencies on the receiver and the camera back
transmitter are the same. Refer to
for further details on how to diagnose and fix
common issues when operating the system.
