can use the HDMI camera output and HDMI cable to connect to the Transmitter. (Only one of the 2 options should be

A green LED in the Transmitter LCD screen turns on once a valid SDI signal is present.
3.1.3
Installing the Transmitter Antennas
The system includes two 5 dBi short antennas and two 9 dBi long antennas. If you have other antennas you can use them
too. \higher gain antennas (e.g. 12 dBi antennas) provides more range but may require Antenna tilting to compensate for
elevation differences between the Receiver and Transmitter (in cases where the receiver antennas are located on a higher
location, such as on a high rooftop).
