Setting up the Transmitter & Headphones
General Notes:
•
If this is the first time you are using the headphones, charge them for full 6 hours before
use. See
Powering the Headphones
•
If your sound source has built-in speakers or if you are using external speakers with it,
you can use Telesounds in addition to those speakers.
Important Notes for TV Users:
•
Because there are so many different TVs available, these instructions cannot explain how
to navigate your specific TV's menus or set its audio output. Please refer to your TV's
manual to learn how to do this, if necessary.
•
Your TV may have an audio output setting in its menus that lets you choose between a
fixed output or a variable output. If this is the case, we recommend using the fixed output.
•
When using a fixed output, the TV's volume level cannot be changed by its volume
controls; you must use the –/+ buttons on the headphones to adjust the volume.
•
When using a variable output, you can change the TV's volume level by using its
volume controls, but the sound in the headphones may be too quiet.
To set up the transmitter with your TV (or other sound source):
1.
Using the included power adapter, connect the transmitter's power input to a power outlet.
2.
Connect one of the transmitter's Audio In connectors to an audio output on your TV:
•
To use the TV's RCA stereo outputs, use the RCA-to-RCA cable to connect
them to the transmitter's RCA (Right & Left) inputs.
•
To use the TV's optical (digital) output, use the optical cable to connect it to
the transmitter's Optical input.
•
To use the TV's coaxial output, use the coaxial cable to connect it to the
transmitter's Coaxial input.
3.
Set the source switch to the type of connection you made in Step 2:
•
If you connected to the transmitter's RCA (Right & Left) inputs, select Audio.
•
If you connected to the transmitter's Optical input, select Optical. The Optical/
Coaxial light on the front of the transmitter will turn red.
•
If you connected to the transmitter's Coaxial input, select Coaxial. The Optical/
Coaxial light on the front of the transmitter will turn red.
When connecting the transmitter to a TV, receiver, DVD player, or hi-fi system, set the Att.
switch on the rear panel to -8 dB.
When connecting the transmitter to a CD player, smartphone, tablet, or computer, set the
Att. switch on the rear panel to 0 dB.
