Mounting and Orientation

antennas in an optimal vertical position away from the
camera body.
When used with non-slot cameras, as depicted in the
diagram below, one or two receivers can be positioned
in a variety of locations around the camera body using
theVelcroandSRaSLEEVEmountingoptions.
Mounting the receiver horizontally on the side of a camera
can seriously reduce the operating range of the wireless
system.
For maximum operating range, the antennas should be
vertical and above the camera body. While it may be
convenient,mountingthereceiverhorizontallyonthe
side of the camera can seriously reduce the operating
range of the wireless system.
The receiver provides stand-
alone operation with the battery
sled adapter and mounting
sleeve. It can be mounted in
any position with Velcro, or in
horizontal and vertical positions
using the mounting foot.
SRSLEEVE Mount
An optional mounting sleeve is available to simplify
mounting the receiver on camera body, battery brack-
ets and other locations. The sleeve is furnished with a
