C120 INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the new and exciting C120 from Clarity. The
C120 provides an enjoyable television viewing experience for people who
have a hard time hearing the television.
The C120 uses infrared technology to wirelessly send signals from a sound
source to the headset receiver. This means that this product does not
require cords to connect to the headset and the user can be free to move
around without the worry of tangling cords.
The C120 can be used with HDTV, Satellite, Digital, LCD and standard
televisions. It can also be used to listen to other audio equipment, such as
a stereo. The use of the product allows a user to listen to music or TV at
a comfortable level without disturbing other viewers or others in the area.
The C120 can not only be used at home, but also outside the home in
places like the movies, conventions, museum tours, and sporting events
(where a public infrared system is offered). Check with the site admini-
stration to see if infrared service is available.

C120 INSTALLATION
SETTING UP THE C120 TRANSMITTER
Important Setup Guidelines
The C120 TV Amplifier transmitter may be
placed on top of a television or shelf. Do not
place objects in between the transmitter base
and the headset receiver, as it will block the
signal to the headset.
It is important to read the following
guidelines to ensure the proper function
of your headset.
1. For the clearest signal, place the base at
eye level or above. As illustrated in Fig. 1, the
clearest signal emitted from the base is in a
straight line, directly in front of the base. The
base must be clearly visible from where you
will be using the headset.
2. Sunlight can cause interference with the
product and cause problems such as buzz,
static, or hiss. As a result, this product cannot
be placed in direct sunlight or be used outdoors.
3. The headset must be located in the same
room as the base and no more than 38 feet
from the base.
Multiple headsets may be used with a single base
if they are set to the same frequency. However,
if more than one base is being used at the same
time, interference will occur.
