1 INTRODUCTION
The NT5723SDHD is BMS’ COFDM camera-back transmitter for a wide range of sporting events and
news broadcast applications. It features low power consumption, one frame latency and 200 mW
output power.
1.1 Display and Control buttons
The transmitter uses a side-mounted control panel, shown below. The control buttons are capacitive
type buttons and a light pressure is needed to operate them.
Figure 1. Transmitter control panel
1.2 Using the transmitter
When the transmitter is powered on, the display will show the letters, BMS; then, once the bootup is
completed, the frequency and current channel will appear.
