Notes on Use 

(1)

  The service frequencies and transmit power outputs of CW-5HD vary depending on the 

designated regions, because each region has different local regulations or restrictions on 

radio waves. The units are 

programmed in the factory prior 

to shipping. Therefore, a 

CW-5HD shipped to one region 

can not be used in a different 

region. 

(2)

Outdoor usage of the 5GHz 

frequency band, which the 

CW-5HD uses, is controlled by 

region.  This table shows the 

approved frequencies and the 

corresponding channels of CW-5HD in each region. 

(3)

The maximum transmission distance varies depending on the surroundings, radio wave 

conditions, buildings structural composition etc.    Although the indoor transmission 

distance is indicated as 30m (with CH1 in Europe, CH1 to 4 in US, POWER MODE=HIGH), 

however this is not a guaranteed operational level 

(4)

When the CW-5HD TX and RX are located close to each other, the received signal may be 

too strong and may disturb the video. When the CW-5HD TX and RX are used close to 

each other (say 3m or less as an example), set the POWER MODE switch of CW-5HD TX 

in LOW mode.   

(5)

CW-5HD can not be equipped with external antennas. 

(6)

The V-Plate connecting CW-5HD to video cameras, monitors, etc. does not have Digi-View 

series II capability for an ENDURA series battery.    Therefore, CW-5HD can not support 

the battery’s digital communication between an ENDURA battery and video camera. 

(7)

The SDI output of CW-5HD conforms to SMPTE-292M/SMPTE-259M.  However, in some 

linked conditions, clock jitter of SDI signals may exceed the regulated values. 

(8)

CW-5HD uses SDI embedded audio, however only Audio channels 1 and 2 can be 

transmitted.  

(9)

It should be understood that the quality level of video transmitted by wireless signal is not 

as 

good as that by hard-wired cable signals.
