6.1.3 About DC Power Use SOLO7 Transmitter is very power efficient. In earlier models of transmitter, if you switched from high to low RF power, the same DC power level would be used although the RF signal was attenuated. In these newer transmitters, when you select lower RF powers the DC power level is dropped too, using just the power needed to achieve the RF power required.
Advanced>Unit tab to monitor the actual temperature in °C of the on-board section 5.4.3 FPGA device, see 1. Use a heatsinking plate, thermal conductivity will help draw heat from the SOLO7 Transmitter case. Section 5.5.2 2. Lower the Output power if operational conditions allow, see Section 5.5.2...
DVB-T link. Range increases of 2 to 5 times over DVB-T are possible. DTC encoding products provide the user with a wide range of settings so that a user can trade-off increased image resolution vs frame rate vs latency for any chosen COFDM link mode.
Remote Commands 7.4.1 Overview Remote commands are used to setup functionality on the SOLO7 Transmitter. They can be sent over the RS232 control interface from any control source, application or hardware or via USB using the Domo Device Controller application.
