Setup
Bonding the Transmitter (Tx) and Receiver (Rx)
Before the ZeroWire wireless system can be put into service , the Tx and Rx pair must be bonded. Connect
an included power supply or a ‘Y’ Adapter cable to a Tx and an Rx unit. See page 7 for Power Connector
location and ‘Y’ Adapter cable information.
The status indicator LED of each unit should be yellow and blinking slowly. If the LED’s are steady yellow
then the Tx and Rx pair is already bonded, continue at the Passing Video section below. Once a Tx and Rx
pair is bonded, they remain bonded until the Tx is explicitly bonded to another Rx or the Rx is explicitly
bonded to another Tx.
Note : If a bonded pair is turned off they will automatically bond to each other when
they are turned on again.
Bonding Procedure:
1. If the Tx’s LED is alternating between blue and yellow, then all ZeroWire channels are in use. See
All Channels In Use Indication section on page 10 for details.
2. Press and hold the “bond” button (see Figure 1 for location) on the Tx unit until its LED begins flashing
rapidly, then release. Next press and hold the “bond” button (see Figure 1 for location) on the Rx unit
until its LED begins flashing rapidly, then release.
3. When the bonding process is complete each unit’s LED will be steady yellow.
Note:
The transmitter and receiver are not limited to line-of-sight operation, i.e., the pair will operate reliably
despite the presence of intervening obstacles. However, neither unit should be completely surrounded by
metallic objects.
Passing Video:
With the bonding completed, connect a DVI or SDI video source to the Tx unit and a display to the Rx unit
via its DVI output (Figure 2). The indicator LED’s should turn blue and the source image should appear on
the display. This completes the basic setup.
