Ready-made kit · master only

Before you start

Reading status#

Display	Meaning
ID (4 chars)	Unique receiver number
Camera N badge	Carried camera number (1-20) — the mapping source
Online / Offline	Offline after 90s without a report
Up · ago	Uptime + last contact (relative to device boot)
Signal (RSSI/SNR)	Link quality as reported by the receiver + Good/Fair/Weak
Battery	Percent (N/A = none or not reported)

1
Change the number
- / + or type 1-20 on the card → applies immediately (no save button)
2
Wait (~30s)
Command round-trip and status report → card shows the new number
3
Verify lighting
Take that camera to PGM on the switcher → the receiver lights red

To assign from the receiver's own button, see 12 · Receiver Operation.

Control	Where	Range/value
Per-unit brightness	Card slider (online only)	0-100%
Global brightness	Top modal	25/50/75/100% presets + slider
OFF color preset	LED Color modal	Black OFF (default) / Blue OFF — applies to all on tap, no per-unit choice

Presets only change the OFF color

PGM red and PVW green are fixed; presets change the OFF-state color only. Powered-off receivers miss presets — turn them on and tap again.

Button	Confirm	Effect
Ping	No	Immediate status request → list refreshes on reply
Reboot	Yes	Restarts the receiver → briefly Offline, then back
Delete	Yes	Removes from the master list only (not a reset)
Status (top)	No	Status request to all receivers
Clear (top)	Yes	Deletes every enrollment and mapping

Clear deletes everything

Cannot be restored — double-check before running it.
