Introduction
Congratulations on purchasing the DigiSender® HQ2 - Twin Input 5.8GHz Wireless AV Sender Sys-
tem. This product represents state of the art wireless audio and video technology and the most
advanced Infra-Red relay technology at exceptional value for money.
You can now enjoy DVD quality video and Hi-Fi stereo sound from your Satellite, Cable, Freeview,
DVD or VCR in another room in your home.
The DigiSender® HQ2 is a twin input wireless AV sender with a difference. Because it uses 5.8GHz
to transmit rather than the much more common 2.4GHz, you can use the DigiSender® HQ2 without
the worry of interference from wireless routers, Bluetooth devices and other wireless products
operating on 2.4GHz. It also incorporates our advanced DigiEye™ remote relay technology allowing
flawless operation with every set top box ever made.
Benefit from 5.8GHz transmission, 2 SCART Inputs, 4 Audio/Video Channels, 4 Remote Relay
Channels and unsurpassed compatibility with the new DigiSender® HQ2!

Changing the Audio/Video Channel
The DigiSender® HQ2 features 4 Audio/Video Channels. Each of these Audio/Video Channels slightly
changes the frequency on which the DigiSender® HQ2 operates. Because the Audio/Video Channel
switch allows you to ‘fine tune’ the frequency on which your DigiSender® HQ2 operates, it is possible
to overcome most interference and reception troubles that may occur.
To change the Audio/Video Channel on your DigiSender® HQ2, simply change the position of the
Audio/Video Channel slider switch to 1, 2, 3 or 4.
For your DigiSender® HQ2 to function correctly it is very important that the Audio/Video Channel
settings are the same on both the Transmitter and Receiver.
Changing the Remote Relay Channel
The DigiSender® HQ2 combines our advanced DigiEye™ technology with the IR Systeme Technik™
Remote Relay kit and features 4 digital Remote Relay Channels.
To change the Remote Relay Channel on your DigiSender® HQ2, simply change the position of the
Remote Relay Channel slider switch to 1, 2, 3 or 4.
For your DigiSender® HQ2 to function correctly it is very important that the Remote Relay Chan-
nel settings are the same on both the Transmitter and Receiver.

Troubleshooting
Audio Problems
DG258 - DigiSender® HQ2 - Twin Input 5.8GHz Wireless AV Sender System
Q: What seems
to be the problem
with the sound?
1. Disconnect both the Trans-
mitter AND Receiver SCART
cables. Reconnect the cables
ensuring they are pushed into
the sockets firmly.
2. If you are using a home cin-
ema DVD player with surround
sound, please ensure the ana-
logue audio output on SCART
is switched on.
1. Turn the output volume UP
(if possible) on your source
device (Satellite, Cable, Free-
view, DVD or VCR).
2. Ensure the Transmitter and
Receiver are within the usable
range (40m avg).
3. Switch off your microwave
oven if present.
Change the Contrast A/B set-
ting on the Transmitter Digi-
Connector™ connected to the
offending equipment.
Turn down the volume on
your source device (Satellite,
Cable, Freeview, DVD or VCR).
There is a hissing sound and
the volume must be turned up
high on the second TV to hear
anything.
I can see the picture but can’t
hear anything.
There is a buzzing sound pres-
ent. It seems to get worse dur-
ing on-screen menus or bright
pictures.
The sound is distorted.

Troubleshooting
Video Problems
RECEIVING BLANK SIGNAL
1. Switch the Transmitter on.
2. Ensure the Transmitter is
connected to your source de-
vice (such as your Satellite,
Cable, Freeview, DVD or VCR).
3. Ensure that your source de-
vice is switched on.
4. Use the supplied DigiSend-
er® Remote Control to select
the correct Input. This can be
done at either the Transmitter
or Receiver.
POOR RANGE
1. The picture & sound quality
is affected by the Transmitter
and Receiver’s location. Try
positioning them in different
locations. The Transmitter and
Receiver should be connected
to a mains extension lead that
can be moved.
2. Try the other 3 available Au-
dio/Video channels ensuring
that the Audio/Video Channel
setting is the same on both
the Transmitter and Receiver.
3. Ensure the units are within
the usable range, normally
this would be 40m when pass-
ing through 2 average internal
walls. Thicker or stone/granite
walls may lower the usable
range of this device.
WRONG AV CHANNEL
SELECTED
1. Switch the Transmitter back
on.
2. Ensure the correct SCART
channel is selected on your
second television. Some
televisions feature multiple
AV channels for one or more
SCART, phono and S-Video
inputs.
3. If available try another
SCART socket on the second
television.
I still see a black screen... I now see a snowstorm or

DG258 - DigiSender® HQ2 - Twin Input 5.8GHz Wireless AV Sender System
WRONG TV CHANNEL
SELECTED
This indicates that the cor-
rect SCART Channel has NOT
been selected on the second
television. Look for buttons
on this televisions remote
control which could select the
AV Channel such as EXT, AV,
VIDEO, VCR, AUX, Channel 0
AND .
INTERFERENCE
This indicates one or more
electrical devices are inter-
fering with the DigiSender®.
Make sure the Transmitter
and Receiver are not directly
on top of other electrical de-
vices. Try all 4 Audio/Video
Channels on your DigiSender®
as one or more may still be
available. Visit digisender.net
or contact our helpline for in-
formation on configuring your
equipment to work together.
NOT RECEIVING SIGNAL
1. Switch the DigiSender® Re-
ceiver back on.
2. Ensure the DigiSender®
