TRANSMITTER OPERATION
CONNECTING THE TRANSMITTER
The transmitter may be connected two ways depending on your television.
If your television has left and right RCA output jacks, use the DUAL RCA CABLE.
If your television does not have left and right output jacks, but rather a 3.5mm
headphone jack, use the 3.5MM TO RCA CABLE.
CONNECTING TO LEFT AND RIGHT RCA OUTPUT JACKS
1. Insert one end of the TRANSMITTER POWER ADAPTER into the transmitter’s
AC ADAPTER JACK and the other end into an electrical outlet. The
transmitter’s POWER INDICATOR illuminates.
2. Insert one end of the DUAL RCA CABLE into the appropriately colored
AUDIO IN R/L JACKS on the transmitter, and the other end into your
television’s left and right audio output jacks.
Note: Do not connect the DUAL RCA CABLE to speaker terminals on your
television. Doing so may damage the transmitter or your television.
