5.4. Embedded GPS Characteristics SkyHopper PRO V has a built-in GPS receiver. In a PTP network configuration it is used for location information only (which can be operated by the customer via the SkyHopper API). In a Multi-Unit network, it is used for synchronization and can also be used by the customer for location purposes. -

7. Point-to-Point (PTP) A PTP network is a radio link between 2 SkyHopper PRO V units. The configuration (frequency and profile) of both units must be the same with only one difference - one unit is configured as a Remote Unit while the other unit is configured as a Controller Unit. -
Page 14: Ptp Link Step-By-Step Configuration
7.1. PTP Link Step-by-Step Configuration In order to build a PTP link, two SkyHopper PRO V units are required. One unit acts as a remote unit, while the other as a controller unit. 1. Connect antennas to RF1 and RF2 connectors, and power up the unit. -

Figure 8: Web GUI “Video Information” screen NOTE – This screen will be functional only when a SkyHopper PRO V unit will be set as a “Remote” unit. This is due to the fact that a camera may not be connected directly to the decoder because a video stream from said camera must first be encoded, and only then may it be decoded on the other side. -

NAT address. Please pay attention that this should be an IP address of the user’s laptop / PC that is connected to the “Controller” SkyHopper PRO V unit. In this case, the user will not need to set a proper port in the “Port” field, because the video streaming will be directed to his laptop / PC. -
Page 19: Table 6: Video Stream Connection Options
User Manual The user must keep in mind that there are several options to set video streams that depend on which and how many cameras are connected. NOTE – When speaking about a video stream, we mean the video we are getting from camera. In our case, if the recording of the video stream will be defined the same as video stream (HDMI or analog camera), we’ll be using only one video stream, and one mux. - Page 20 User Manual The “Audio” trigger enables / disables the audio stream that would be embedded within the video stream. Audio capabilities are currently disabled, but will be enabled in the near future. The “Record” trigger enables the recording of a stream over the SD card (if present). The user can select the FPS number and quality (if it is supported in that resolution combined with the analog stream as described in Table 6).

Cables should be chosen according to their attenuation (lower attenuation gives better results) and flexibility (according to the path they pass through). Each cable should have an MMCX Male connector on the SkyHopper PRO V end, and a connector matching the antenna’s connector on the other. -
