4.2 Прикључак за напајање

Connect the provided XT-60 power cable to the camera's power input. The camera supports a 2S-4S LiPo battery (7.4V-14.8V). Ensure correct polarity when connecting the power source to avoid damage to the unit.

The camera's wiring typically consists of:

  • Црвена жица: Positive (+) power input
  • Црна жица: Negative (-) power input (Ground)
  • жута жица: Video Out (if applicable, though this is AIO, so video is transmitted wirelessly)

For direct power, connect the red and black wires to your vehicle's battery or a suitable power distribution board within the specified voltagе ранге.

4.3 Инсталација антене

The Spotter V2 comes with a pre-installed Cloverleaf antenna. A spare Whip antenna is also included. If the Cloverleaf antenna becomes damaged, you can solder the Whip antenna in its place. Ensure the antenna is securely attached and positioned to minimize obstruction for best signal transmission.

5.2 Channel and Power Adjustment

The Spotter V2 features a button for frequency adjustment. Refer to the markings on the camera unit for the exact location of the "PRESS" button. Short presses typically cycle through channels, while long presses may cycle through bands or power levels. Consult the on-screen display (OSD) for current channel, band, and power settings.

  • Кратки притисак: Change channel within the current band.
  • Дуго притисните: Change band or adjust VTX power (20mW, 200mW).

Ensure your FPV receiver (goggles/monitor) is set to the same band and channel as the Spotter V2 for a clear video feed.
