  1. Ensure that you select a frequency supported by your monitor.
  2. The output is progressive scan (p); it does not support progressive segmented frame (PsF) or interlaced (i) scan formats.
  3. The frequency options depend on project time base. If you have a non-drop frame project time base (such as 24.00), you can select only non-drop frame frequencies. If you have a drop frame project time base (such as 23.98), you can select only drop frame frequencies.

HDMI Wireless Transmitters

The HDMI connector supports HDMI wireless transmitters, so that you can transmit the HDMI signal to a remote HDMI monitor. The HDMI connector supports industry-standard HDMI wireless transmitters.

NOTE: The DSMC2 Jetpack Expander features a spring-loaded retainer that keeps a mounted HDMI wireless transmitter firmly in place. A wireless transmitter that is longer than 9.8 cm (including the HDMI connector) might not fit in the retainer.

NOTE: The DSMC2 V-Lock I/O Expander, DSMC2 Jetpack Expander, and DSMC2 REDVOLT Expander have a USB power out connector that provides 5 V at 1.5A, which powers most industry-standard HDMI wireless transmitters. For more information, go to USB Power.
