Scene Mode: HD mode offers a stable 8-12 Mbps bitrate for high-definition transmission. Smooth mode dynamically adjusts bitrate (4-10 Mbps) to balance image quality and latency.

Channel Switch: Tap a channel number to switch channels or tap 'AUTO' for auto frequency hopping.

Scan: (Receiver mode only) Tap 'Scan' to view signal strength. Yellow bars indicate the current channel, green bars indicate low-interference channels, and red bars indicate high-interference channels. Using low-interference channels is recommended. Tap a bar to switch channels.

Pairing

• Perform pairing after the device is powered on and the channel number is displayed.
• Devices in the same group pair automatically.
• Only one transmitter is allowed per group. For simultaneous use of multiple sets in the same location, assign each set to a distinct group.
