Troubleshoot why your EW G3/G4 receiver shows no RF signal - check RF Mute, antennas, range or distribution system for clear wireless performance.
EW G3/G4 – receiver has no RF signal
If the frequencies at the receiver and transmitter are matching, but there is no RF please check the following:
- Are either of the units in RF Mute? (press the power button quickly – RF mute is displayed – select "RF MUTE OFF")
- Are the antennas connected to the receiver? – the receiver should have two antennas connected to the BNC sockets marked “ANT I” and “ANT II”.
- Are you in range of the receiver? (less than 30 m and line of sight is a good starting point)
If you have more than one system you can do some extra troubleshooting:
- Check the transmitter with another receiver? If it’s working there then you may have a fault with your receiver, or need to check the squelch and pilot tone settings again.
- Check the receiver with another transmitter? If it’s working ok then your transmitter may have a fault.
Are your receivers connected to an antenna distribution system? If so, try disconnecting them and connecting antennas directly to the receiver? Does it work now – if so the antenna distribution may be faulty.
