P3 5G Wireless Bonding Encoder.USER MANUAL Insert the HDMI cable and fasten it with the buckle on the HDMI cable strap. If it is necessary to remove the bound HDMI cable, unlock the two buckles as shown in the illustration, and then take out the HDMI cable.
First Boot Guide When the new device is powered on for the first time, the P3 display screen will show the system startup process and guide users through the device initialization. Device initialization consists of three steps: language selection, confirmation of user license agreement, and network configuration, guiding users to complete the initial device setup.
5.3 Network Configuration The P3 device needs to be used in a connected environment, so during the initial setup process, users need to configure the network. For detailed instructions on network configuration, please refer to section 6.6.3. If you prefer not to configure the network at this time, you can skip the relevant options and later configure the network connection through the device's LCD screen.
5.4 Boot Guide Completion After the initial startup guide of P3 is completed, the system will prompt the device's WEB management address and a QR code for quick login. Users can use a computer to log in or scan the QR code with a mobile phone to perform more detailed settings on the device, or click 'Configuration Completed' to start using the device.
HDMI/SDI input resolution. You can also specify scaling to a specific resolution (choose from the list). Note: Currently, P3 does not support video magnification, so scaling will not work if the selected scaling resolution is larger than the actual input resolution.
To achieve P3 bonding transmission, you need a KiloLink Server Pro server and configure the registration information of the P3 device on the server side (please refer to the KiloLink Server Pro operation manual for the configuration and detailed use of the KiloLink Server Pro server); before performing bonding transmission on the P3 device side, you also need to configure the corresponding parameters for the connection between the P3 device and KiloLink Server Pro on the device side.
Authorization Code: Enter the authorization code specific to this device for connecting to KiloLink Server Pro. Encryption: Enable or disable data encryption for P3 aggregation transmission. Bonding Connections: Select the network links participating in the aggregation transmission.
NTP servers. Manual time setting allows users to input date/time manually. Note: After manual time setting, the time will be maintained by P3's internal battery and RTC clock system. Due to RTC system accuracy errors, significant time discrepancies may occur over time.
Insert a USB flash drive containing the P3 firmware update (firmware must be placed in the root directory of the USB flash drive), click "Firmware Upgrade", and the system will automatically search for the latest valid firmware version in the root directory of the USB flash drive and proceed with the upgrade automatically.

6.6.3.3 Wireless Hotspot Settings If you need P3 to serve as a Wi-Fi hotspot to provide internet access to other devices, select Wi-Fi hotspot in the main network configuration interface for configuration (as shown in Figure 16). Wi-Fi hotspot settings can specify the shared Wi-Fi hotspot name, password, default IP network segment, and Wi-Fi channel.
SIM card will be permanently locked, requiring a replacement SIM card. 6.6.4 Record The P3 supports local recording, allowing users to simply insert a SD card or USB storage drive for recording. For additional recording settings, users can configure them in the recording interface under system settings (refer to Figure 18).
P3 5G Wireless Bonding Encoder·User Manual File Split: Supports three recording file splitting methods: no splitting, splitting by duration, and splitting by size. No Splitting: The recorded content is saved in a single file without any splitting. by Duration: The recorded content is divided into multiple files based on user-selected time intervals(1 ...
After enabling the Wi-Fi hotspot on the device and setting the Wi-Fi hotspot name and password, you can use a smartphone or laptop as a Wi-Fi terminal to connect to and manage the encoder device. Once connected to the P3 hotspot, you can enter the device's IP address in the browser on your smartphone or laptop to access the encoder's WEB management interface.
In the network settings, click on the "Ethernet" -> "Configure" button to set up automatic or manual network configuration. Selecting "Automatic" will allow P3's Ethernet interface to obtain and configure information using the DHCP protocol. If manual configuration is preferred, you can set parameters such as IP address, Net Mask, Gateway, DNS, etc.

To ensure reliable and efficient wireless transmission, maintain an optimal distance between the Wi-Fi router (AP) and the P3, avoiding obstacles and interference. Using the 5GHz frequency band (channels 36-165) can provide faster connection speeds and reduce wireless channel interference.
Note: P3's Wi-Fi shared hotspot defaults to supporting a 24-bit subnet mask, so the IP address subnet needs the first three IP address segments. Upon connection, the device's DHCP service will allocate an IP address from this subnet to the connected terminal.
