Getting Started
Installing the TV Streamer 2
Depending on your TV, HiFi stereo, computer or other audio
setup, the installation of TV Streamer 2 may be done in several
ways described in the following section. The following steps will
guide you through the pairing and connecting process, which can
be easily accomplished by almost anyone. Start by connecting
cables between the TV Streamer 2 and the audio source and
finish by pairing the TV Streamer 2 to your hearing instruments.
iThe TV Streamer 2 supports both analogue and digital au-
dio input. Please read the following sections for information about
supported audio formats and how to connect the TV Streamer 2
to audio sources.
Connecting the TV Streamer 2 to an analogue audio source
(E.g. TV or HiFi stereo)
1. Connect the power supply to the wall socket and insert the
cable into the micro-USB socket on the TV Streamer 2
2. Insert the male stereo mini-jack on the audio cable into the fe-
male stereo mini-jack input on the TV Streamer 2 (4 on page 8)
3. Plug the other end audio cord into the ”AUDIO OUT” terminals
on the audio source

4. The ”AUDIO OUT” is usually marked ”L – R” for left and right,
and can usually be found on the back of the audio source
iNote: With this installation, most audio sources will send
sound to both hearing instruments and additional speakers
connected to the audio source simultaneously. On some audio
sources you can adjust the balance between the AUDIO OUT and
the speakers – consult your audio source manual for instructions.

Alternative analogue audio cable installations:
If it is not possible to connect the TV Streamer 2 to the AUDIO
OUTPUT of the audio source using the red and white plugs, the
following installation alternatives can be used:
Mini-jack adaptor:
1. Connect the power supply to the wall socket and insert the
cable into the micro-USB socket on TV Streamer 2
2. Insert the male stereo mini-jack on the audio cable into the fe-
male stereo mini-jack input on the TV Streamer 2 (4 on page 8)
3. Connect the stereo mini-jack adapter to the red and white
plugs at the other end of the audio cable
4. Plug the stereo mini-jack adapter into the audio sources’
”HEADPHONE” output terminal, or alternatively into your com-
puters’ audio terminal
iNote: The HEADPHONE output terminal is usually located
on the side or front of the audio source. When using the HEAD-
PHONE terminal, usually only the person wearing the hearing in-
struments will hear the sound, and audio source speakers are
muted.

Pairing to your hearing instruments
iNote! The following information is intended primarily for your
hearing care professional, who in most cases will complete the
necessary tasks before the TV Streamer 2 can be used with your
hearing instruments. However, the process is designed to be
simple and most people can do it themselves.
It is possible to pair up to three streaming devices - e.g. two TV
Streamers and one ReSound UniteTM Mini Microphone (optional
accessory) - with a given pair of hearing instruments. Therefore
channel 1, 2 or 3 must be selected when starting the pairing pro-
cess.
Pairing the TV Streamer 2 in channel 1
1. Make sure that the TV Streamer 2 power supply is plugged into
a wall socket and that the green light indicator on the front of the
TV Streamer 2 (9 on page 9) is ON. Your hearing instruments
must be OFF - open the battery door
2. Press the pairing button on the TV Streamer 2 (2 on page 8)
once. The yellow light indicator on the front of the TV Streamer 2
(10 on page 9) will now blink once every 2 seconds to indicate
that the TV Streamer 2 is ready to be paired in channel 1. Your
