My Receiver doesn't seem to have a signal on the "Out" output. I have adjusted levels on Transmitters and the Reciever and I have changed cables still no signal coming out. I need to feed a signal to my Panasonic GH5 , which I have set the Reciever profile for...still no joy. I do have audio coming out of the Headphone jack which I'm reluctant to use but I guess if I'm careful with my GH5 input I could use... still I would love to know if it's maybe a bad output or if I'm doing something wrong or something not setup up correctly. I have tried other camera's as well. Any help appreciated.

Hi there,

May I know are you trying to connect and use your DJI Mic 2 with your camera device?

If yes, you can try by attach the receiver to a camera using the cold shoe on the receiver, then connect the receiver to the microphone port of the camera using the camera cable provided.

When using the microphone with a camera, it is recommended to increase receiver
gain and decrease camera gain for enhanced audio capture.

We are looking forward to your response for further assistance. Thank You

Thanks for the reply. I hoped I was clear but maybe not.  As the picture shows, I have the DJI Receiver attached to my GH5 and the DJI "Out" is plugged into the GH5's mic input. The DJI Transmitter is connected to the DJI Receiver and it's showing a good signal.  The GH5 is setup to monitor the signal from the Receiver but no signal is showing on the GH5. I have adjusted the gain on the Transmitter(Mic) and the Receiver to no avail.   If....I come out of the DJI  Receiver "Headphone" jack I do have a signal into the GH5. I "think" there is an issue with the "Out" jack on the DJI Transmitter for some reason....or maybe I'm missing something.

Below is a picture shows that I am getting a signal from the Headphone jack of the transmitter into the GH5. So I feel the cable is good it just maybe the "Out" jack is the issue. Also just wondering if anyone else has had this issue but looks like they haven't.

So... I guess the Receiver needs repair since I do not have a signal on the "Out" jack only the headphone jack?

I am having the same issue. Headphone out works but record out isn’t working. I’ve had it for only two months. Arrived out of state on a film shoot and this happens. Does this need to be sent in for repair?

I am having the same issue. Transmitter and receivers are working fine with standalone recording, but no signal comes out of the receiver to go into the camera. I have tested different cables and three different cameras. I reset to factory settings, and tried different audio levels etc. Is this a faulty receiver that needs to be returned?

Hi I have also this very same problem and it happened suddenly. Only sound signal from the headphones out jack. I am not sure if the sound is the same as when it worked from the mic out.  And that right before holiday and planned filming and recording sound. The help desk in Netherland didnt understand nor wanting to sent a new kit. I now have to send all back and wait for weeks/ months I guess.......

I have the same issue.

I kind of found a workaround. U need the Multi-shoe camera adapter for the dji mic 2 and the latest version of the firmware to avoid a bug of the connection to the receiver.

but the Receiver's Out is still not working tho....

Thanks. What kind of adapter is that?

And is the sound signal from the headphones out different or worse than from the mic out? If not I can use that instead of sending the mics to Netherlands,,,

Same problem here. I finished an interview and by the time I started the next one i was getting no signal from the 'out' jack. I ended up using the headphone jack as an emergency solution but have not trusted this system for a job since. Went back to my old Rode mics. I'd say this warrants replacement by DJI as its affecting our professions. Canon R5.

Hello, same issue here on Canon R5. OUT does not work randomly, but headhpone jack does... Obviously an issue with the unit, what I cannot tell is if its firmware or connection hardware related inside the jack?? I'm using the DJI stereo audio cable provided, just like @Stiflo video above. Same exact results. Only purchased a few months ago, used under 10 times.
wondering if this is a pattern?? -  Are we all, who is having this issue, using the feature that auto turns the receiver on/off? @DJI is there anything that could be zapping the jacks internals/chip with how the camera would have to send power/signal to the receiver to let it know if it turns on/off?  ie, wonder if anyone NOT using that feature is having issue???

@DJI is there a solve??

I'm having the same issue. I was on the shoot and suddenly there was no audio signal going from "out" jack of the receiver to the camera. I'm really disappointed with this. Is there any solution for this?

I am having the same issue with a set purchased in May. I tried factory reset and updating firmware and no solutions. Finished a production with the headphone out. Used it to sync to 32 bit local recording.

Now I purchased a second set that just arrived, without a firmware update it has the same issue out of the box.

I have sent the original set off for repair and will be returning the second set.

Hi, I'm having exactly the same issues. OUT port not sending a signal to camera Canon C70. Changed mini jack cable, updated firmware, factory reset, still nothing. I think there is an issue with the receiver OUT port.
