You can power the TX and RX using either the Barrel (5 VDC) Input, USB-C (16 VDC) Input, or via the built-in Sony NP battery plate.
The Mars 400S Pro II is also compatible with Mars 400S Pro, allowing them to be paired and used together.
Upon startup, the Mars 400S Pro II automatically selects the best frequency channels. Additionally, channel scanning can be conducted using the receiver or the HollyView App, providing a visual representation of signal interference levels at each frequency. This allows for the quick identification of the most suitable frequency.
The Mars 400S Pro II is equipped with a three-speed fan adjustment feature (Auto, Low Speed, Off). Its intelligent cooling design allows it to perform optimally in various usage scenarios by reducing device temperature and ensuring stable signal transmission.
For mounting, it features an integrated cold shoe with a 1/4-inch threaded cold shoe.
