A Scart adapter(not included) may also be used. Use only
the red and white terminals.
NOTE: If the system is connected to a cable or satellite box
and to a DVD or VCR player it is necessary to turn off the
device which is not in use at the time. When using the DVD
or VCR player turn off the cable or satellite box. When
watching TV turn off the DVD and VCR player.
(3) Connecting a microphone
If needed, connect a condenser microphone using the
microphone socket located on the rear of the Transmitter

When connecting to a TV or other equipment which has
digital audio output terminals, use either the included Toslink
cable (optical digital) or a coaxial cable, depending on which
type of output terminals are provided on the equipment.
Please refer to the connection diagram on page 6 or to the
user manuals of your TV and other equipment.
NOTE: When using CL7150 with a digital audio input signal
the TV audio output must be set to PCM mode. CL7150 is
not compatible with Dolby Digital. The PCM setting can

Please refer to your TV/DVD/Satellite/Cable Box user’s
manual for instructions for setting to PCM mode.
NOTE: If you wish to use the system to listen to TV while
the CL7150 is muted so as not to disturb others, the TV

POSITIONING
The infra-red(IR) signals need a direct line-of-sight
connection between the transmitter and the headset.
Position the transmitter such that there is a direct line-of-
sight connection with the headset when in use. The IR
signals may be blocked by objects such as walls, doors,
furniture, newspapers, books, etc. The IR diodes are lit
during use.
NOTE: When there is no audio input to the
transmitter/charge, transmission is turned off
automatically and the blue LED goes off. This is
resumed automatically when audio signal is restored.
