www.dejero.com Broadcast from virtually anywhere Cellular, Wi-Fi®, and satellite connectivity from a compact transmitter enables you to reliably broadcast live from virtually anywhere. You can even broadcast live while in motion. Easy to use The simple, intuitive touch screen interface provides confidence monitoring, status information, and easy operation. Built-in intelligence does most of the work for you so you can focus on the shot.
www.dejero.com About Dejero Control When you manage the EnGo with Dejero Control, you can: • Assign live and recorded video, as well as file transfers, from the EnGo to a Dejero receiver. • Geolocate the EnGo mobile transmitter. • Preview and route feeds from the EnGo. • Remotely control and configure the EnGo. • Review analytics about the performance of the EnGo. Powering the EnGo When the EnGo is on, it runs on its internal battery. The EnGo does not supply power to the camera.
www.dejero.com Note: When the EnGo 263 is off, it uses power from an attached power source (such as a power outlet or an auxiliary battery) to charge the internal battery. It continues to draw a small amount of that power even after the internal battery is charged fully. If the EnGo is attached to an auxiliary battery, keeping it connected can drain the auxiliary battery. The EnGo’s internal battery does not lose charge if you disconnect from a power source.
www.dejero.com Blue light flashing approximately once a second If the EnGo is off, the internal battery is charging but is not yet fully charged. Blue light flashing approximately twice a second The EnGo is off, connected to an external power source, and the internal battery is fully charged. If the device is on, the internal battery is below 50% but above 30%. This setting also indicates that the EnGo is not being charged. Blue light flashing The EnGo is on and the internal battery is below 30%.
www.dejero.com • Live: Transmit live video over network blending of cellular, Wi-Fi, Ethernet, or satellite connections to the Dejero receivers. • Recording: Record video for later transmission. Use this mode when a live feed is not required, or when bandwidth is limited or not available. • Live and Recording: Transmit live while also recording high-quality video to use later. Use this mode when network bandwidth is limited but you still need to broadcast live.
www.dejero.com The EnGo selects the correct video input automatically. If you do not see video on the screen, make sure that the cables are connected properly and that you are using a supported video format. If the video format is not detected automatically, you may need to configure the video settings. For more information, see "Configuring the EnGo" on page 26. Note: You can use the mini DP output on the EnGo to connect directly to an external DP display.
