LINK LEVEL LED

LINK LEVEL

When the units are establishing a link, the LINK LEVEL LED blinks.

After the wireless connection is established, the LED stops blinking.

To ensure good picture quality, make sure that all three LEDs light up in green, indicating a good link.

Recommended placement of the receiver and transmitter units is within 5 feet (20 m) of each other. If you experience problems with the LINK LEVEL, removing obstructions from the path between the units may improve the LINK LEVEL.

If the Wireless LINK LEVEL is less than three or the picture is noisy or the sound quality is diminished, press CONNECT to switch to another wireless channel.

If you experience problems finding a suitable LINK LEVEL, see the Troubleshooting section in the Reference Guide for more information.

Optimal environment for placement of the units

Follow the suggestions below to create an optimal environment for your Wireless Link. Proper placement of the receiver and transmitter units will ensure a strong Wireless LINK LEVEL for superior performance.

Use one system per room, placing the transmitter and receiver units for each system in the same room.

If you use a 5 GHz WLAN or cordless phone, place those in a different room.

Do not place either unit on a metallic rack. Place the transmitter unit as high up as

possible. Maximum operating distance is approximately

5 feet (20 m), depending on the environment. Be sure to keep at least 1 foot (30 cm)

minimum distance between the transmitter and receiver units.
