Problem Solution

Power indicator
doesn't light up

Check that the power plug of RECON X5TX and RECON X5
RX is properly inserted into a functioning power outlet.

｡

Verify that the proper cable has been selected and installed
between the desired RECON X5TX input connector and your
High-Definition device.

｡On your monitor side, select the SDI source you connected

to RECON X5RX.

｡Check your video resolution with SDI input from your device

is 1080p, 1080i 720p, 576i, 480i.

｡Check the VIDEO LED on your RECON X5RX:

Blinking green--RECON X5RX is connecting with the signal
source;
Solid green--RECON X5RX has connected with the signal
source.

｡Check the LINK LED on your RECON X5RX:

Blinking green--RECON X5RX is connecting with the RECON
X5TX;
Solid green--RECON X5RX has connected with RECON X5
TX.

｡Make sure your multiple High-Definition devices connected

with RECON X5TX have powered on.

No video is
displayed on
your monitor

Poor picture
quality or

RECON X5TX's SDI IN socket.

4. Connect the JetPack or other
power supply equipment.

Step2: RECON X5RX the receiver:

1. Install the 2 external antennas

2. Adjust the DIP switch according to the input signal formats( See
RECON X5RX)

3. Connect the BNC cable to RECON X5RX's SDI OUT socket

4. Connect the BNC cable to the display device's SDI IN socket.

5. Connect the AC power supply.

Step3: Power on
Press the power switches to power on your RECON X5TX and RECON
X5RX, POWER LED indicators turn solid green.
If RECON X5TX receives SDI signals, VIDEO LED on the RECON X5
TX lights up; if the signal link between RECON X5TX and RECON X5
RX is established, LINK LED on the RECON X5RX lights up. In this case
the communication is normal, you can normally transmit signals.
