Connecting the Wireless Micro Camera Receiver (CRX) to the transmitters is a straightforward process that can be accomplished with ease.
The Wireless Micro kit comes pre-paired out of the box, ensuring an instant connection between the transmitters and the included USB-C or Lightning receiver; this remains its primary, permanent link. The transmitters also feature a secondary pairing slot, allowing you to connect a Wireless Micro Camera Receiver.
Once paired, the transmitters will automatically detect and connect to whichever receiver—either the primary Micro Receiver or the secondary Camera Receiver—is powered on. This seamless switching means you don't need to re-pair devices, as pairing a Camera Receiver does not unpair the original Micro Receiver.
How to pair the CRX to the Wireless Micro Transmitters
- To ensure a seamless setup, it’s important to start by confirming that both the CRX and the Wireless Micro transmitters are updated to at least version 2.0.3, available through RØDE Central.
- This ensures compatibility and optimal performance.
- For the initial setup, keep the Wireless Micro transmitters inside their case for the time being.
- This will help avoid any accidental pairing before you're ready.
- First turn on your CRX. To do this, press and hold the power button until the device turns on. You will know it’s active when you see a solid green LED light, indicating that the device is ready for use.
- Next, to initiate pairing mode, press and hold the right button, which is marked with the symbol '∞'.
- Hold this button until you notice a blue LED light that is strobing from left to right. This visual cue signifies that the CRX is now in pairing mode and ready to connect with the transmitters.
- At this point, remove one of the transmitters from its case and place it close to the CRX.
- Once the transmitter is successfully paired, you will see a green LED light illuminate on the left side of the CRX, confirming that the connection has been established.
- To pair the second transmitter, simply repeat the same steps you followed for the first one. This will ensure that both transmitters are connected to the CRX, allowing for seamless operation.
You have paired the Wireless Micro Transmitter(s) with the Wireless Micro Camera Receiver and are ready to transmit audio to a camera.
