INSTALLING THE AUDIO ANYWHERE 685
TRANSMITTER
Any audio source can be connected to the transmitter, such as a
TV, satellite receiver, MP3 player, stereo equipment, etc.,
provided it has a digital audio output (coaxial or TOSLINK).
1. Connect the coaxial or TOSLINK cable to the digital output of
your TV or PC/laptop.
2. Connect the adapter to the micro USB port and plug the
adapter into the wall socket. The blue LED will now light up
when you turn the on/off switch to ON.
3. Let your audio source produce sound.
INSTALLING THE AUDIO ANYWHERE 685

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
I cannot pair my Audio Anywhere 685.
Please note the following:
1. Ensure that the AC adapter is connected and the LED is lit.
2. Make sure that the distance between the transmitter and
receiver does not exceed 10 metres and there are no major
obstacles between them.
3. Verify that the LED on the receiver is blue. If it is red, there is
no connection. If it is off, turn the on/off switch to ON.
There is no sound coming from my audio system
xMake sure that the coaxial or TOSLINK cable is connected
properly, the correct input is selected on your audio system
and the volume of your audio system is set to the desired
level.
Should I use the same cable to the transmitter and the
receiver?
xNo. You may, for example, use the coaxial connector on the
transmitter, and the TOSLINK connector on the receiver.
I have paired my TV's audio wirelessly with my audio system,
but the sound is not in sync with the video.
Your TV needs more time to build up the image than to play the
sound. The sound coming from your TV will therefore be played
with a slight delay, to allow video and audio to be in sync.
For best results, connect the Audio Anywhere transmitter to your
TV's audio output, instead of your set-top box or satellite
receiver's audio output.
Can I connect my speakers to the receiver directly?
In order to hear sound or music, connect the receiver to an
amplifier with separate (built-in) speakers or so-called active
speakers (with built-in amplifier). You cannot connect passive
speakers directly to the receiver.

Can I also connect my transmitter/receiver's USB cable to a
USB connector of, for example, my amplifier or TV?
Yes, you can. However, the connection will only be used for
powering your Audio Anywhere 685. The transmitter/receiver will
then automatically switch on and off in line with the amplifier or
TV. (auto power on)
