Troubleshooting

No video signal on receiver

Verify that the transmitter and receiver are powered on and properly paired. Check that both SDI/HDMI cables are securely connected at both ends. Ensure the input/output formats match between the camera/transmitter and receiver/monitor.

Intermittent signal loss or dropouts

Ensure the distance between transmitter and receiver is within the specified range. Reduce potential sources of wireless interference (e.g., Wi-Fi routers, other wireless devices). Try switching to a different transmission channel or band if available.

Pyro 5 screen is dim or unreadable outdoors

Adjust the screen brightness in the Pyro 5's settings. Consider using a monitor hood to shield the screen from direct sunlight for better visibility.

Camera control not functioning

Confirm that your camera model is supported for camera control by Hollyland. Ensure the correct camera control cable is used and securely connected. Check the camera control settings within the Pyro 5's menu.
