Press and hold the Power button on each unit until the OLED screen illuminates (for power on) or turns off (for power off).

5.2 Initial Connection

Once both the TX and RX units are powered on and connected to their respective devices, they should automatically establish a connection. The OLED screen on both units will display the current resolution (e.g., 1920x1080P60) and signal status.

5.3 Channel Scan and Selection

The JM300PRO features a channel scan function to identify the best available wireless channel for optimal performance. This can be done via the unit's control buttons or through the dedicated mobile application.

1. On-Device: Use the control buttons next to the OLED screen to navigate the menu and initiate a channel scan. Select a channel with minimal interference.
2. Via App: Download and install the JM300PRO monitoring application on your smartphone or tablet. Connect your mobile device to the JM300PRO's Wi-Fi network. Within the app, you can perform a channel scan and select the most suitable frequency point. The system offers nine optional frequency points.
