Step 1
If the Transmitter and Receiver are in Standby mode (both Power indicator lights of Transmitter and Receiver
are lit in red), power on the display that you would like to view content on� If the display that is powered on is
connected to the receiver it will take the system out of standby mode and content will begin streaming� If the
display that is powered on is connected to the HDMI out port on the transmitter, content will be displayed on the
local TV, but it will not take the system out of standby mode�
Note: The HDMI OUT pass through port is always on even if the Transmitter is in standby mode�
During boot-up, the Power indicator light will blink blue until the signal link between the Transmitter and
Receiver is established, between 15 - 20 seconds�

Checking IR Flasher Frequency
Step 1
Using the remote control for your AV device, point the remote control at the Receiver and press the Power
button� If the power on the AV device turns ON/OFF, the remote frequency is set for the AV device�
If the power on the AV device does not turn ON/OFF, the remote frequency needs to be changed� Go to step
2a�
Changing IR Flasher Frequency
Step 2a
Using the remote provided with this system, press the IR button once to display the active IR Flasher frequency�
Press the IR button again to change to the next frequency� The IR Flasher frequency will change with each
button press�
Step 2b
After changing to the next frequency, press the Power button on your AV device’s remote control� If the AV
device turns ON/OFF, the remote frequency is set�
If there is no action from your AV device, use the remote provided with this system
to change to the next frequency and repeat the above steps until a proper IR
frequency is located�
Notes:
• One IR Flasher eye is to be used for one component device�
• The IR sensor supports 35KHz - 58KHz carrier frequencies� Therefore, it is possible that some devices
may not be supported�
• Most often, the IR window is easier to locate with direct light shining on sections of the front panel of
your AV device (a small ashlight works well).

Notes:
• If wireless connection is not established after 80 seconds, the Transmitter is out of range� Verify that the
range between the Transmitter and Receiver is within specications and adjust or shorten the distance
between your Transmitter and Receiver� The maximum transmission range for 1080p content is up to
100 ft� (30m) line of sight and 30 ft� (9m) through one structure� The ideal minimum range is 6�5 ft� (2m)�
• Ensure that the source device is powered on and the Transmitter is set to the proper input�
• If there is no video showing on the output device and the on screen display states "Not Supported
Format", this is an indication that the video frame rate from the AV device is not supported� Refer to the
Supported Resolutions section of the Appendix�
• Each Transmitter and Receiver should ideally be at least 6�5 ft� (2m) away from one another�
• If running multiple systems make sure that transmitters are separated by at least 6�5 ft� (2m)�
• Proper Shutdown Procedure - To turn the system off simply turn off the display that you were viewing
and the system will automatically go into standby within 5 minutes� Powering the system down by using
the power button on the transmitter can cause the transmitter and receiver to lose their sync� If this
occurs, connection can be re-established by power cycling the receiver�
• CEC/ HDMI Control - The HDS-WHDI100 does not support CEC/HDMI Control� Please ensure that
CEC/HDMI Control is disabled on all connected source equipment and displays� Instructions for this
process can be found in the User Manuals for the connected devices�
