Transmitter Battery Level
The battery diagram displays a rough indication of the transmitter's battery level. For a more accurate battery
reading the battery type being used in the transmitter needs to be set in the transmitters extended menu. The
battery symbol will start to blink just before transmitter shuts down.
RF Signal Strength
The RF strength meter shows the radio signal strength of the transmitter. The RF signal is depicted as a staircase
pattern with the lowest step (low signal strength) on the left and building up to the right (higher signal strength).
When more stairs are showing the stronger the signal is.

Audio Level
Displays the incoming audio level, the meter extends from the left to the right. The vertical bar is the -20dBFS
mark and the far right side of the box is 0dBFS. Two meters will be displayed when a stereo signal is being
received. A single thick meter will appear when a mono signal is being received.
RX200 Battery Level
This is the voltage level of the internal (INT) or external (EXT) battery that is powering the RX200. The RX200 will
automatically switch to the higher voltage source, which is usually the external DC input. Therefore if the RX200
is connected to a DC source and external power is lost then the RX200 will seamlessly switch to the internal
batteries. So please note that if the RX200 has internal AA batteries installed and is being powered by a cameras
DC output, if the camera is powered down the RX200 will remain on using the internal batteries unless the
power switch on the RX200 is turned off.
