Using the
Encrypted
Transmission
Function
This receiver is capable of receiving
scrambled signals from Sony digital
wireless transmitters. This function
prevents hacking of the signal.
To use this function, select one of the
following encrypted transmission modes:
Secure key mode: A secure key that is
automatically generated by the transmitter
is used by both the transmitter and receiver
in this one-to-one encrypted transmission
method.
Password mode: You choose a
password of up to eight characters that can
be set for multiple transmitters and
receivers. This enables encrypted
transmission to be conducted within a
group.
Note
Make sure the same mode is set on the
transmitter and receiver.
Using Secure Key Mode
(SECURE KEY)
Use this mode for one-to-one encrypted
transmission between one transmitter and
one receiver.
An encryption key that cannot be read from
the outside is automatically generated by
the transmitter. This key is transmitted to
the receiver through a USB connection or
the RF REMOTE function, enabling
encrypted transmission to take place.

Using the Encrypted Transmission Function
The encryption key used by the transmitter
and receiver is newly generated for each
key transmission, resulting in highly secure
communication.
The encryption key used between the
transmitter and the receiver is saved when
the power is turned off, so the encrypted
transmission can be resumed the next time
the power is turned on.
