ADDENDUM
Roth Audio RothDock - troubleshooting if you have problems
with your wireless set-up at home
As with all wireless products there can sometimes be problems
in connection if multiple wireless devices are being used in th~
same space. This is nothing to worry about as we have a
solution for the two main problems that you might experience.
Problem 1- your RothDock loses its wireless
connection and needs to be reset.
Solution 1• Follow the steps below to pair the dock
and receiver manually:
A) Turn on both dock and receiver with the receiver set up with
amp/speakers. Use a pin to press the reset button on the
"dock which is located 3cm behind the IPod connector for
around 4 seconds until the LED starts to blink fast and then
release the button.
B) Within 15 seconds from step A, use the pin to press the
reset button on the receiver until the speaker beeps.
Release the button and the LED of the receiver should be on
and there will be a long beep which confirms the pairing.

Problem 2- your RothDock and Wireless LAN are
on the same frequency set and won't both work at
the same time.
Solution 2 -- Follow the steps below to change the
frequency on which your RothDock works
A) There are 11 channels in the wifi system we use. When the
RothDock and the wireless access point are using the same
channel there can be interference. The solution is to change
the channel of the Rothdock or wireless access point. It's
probably easier for you to change the channel of the
RothDock, as follows:
Press and release the reset button on rothdock within 5 sec
(simply 1 click) and then the interference should be greatly
reduced. You may repeat this until the interference is
minimized, Le. press for another 5 seconds and the
frequency set changes again, etc.
After changing the wireless channel you need to
resynchronize the dock and the receiver as per Solution 1
above.
The above are the only two known wireless application problems
that you might have - I hope this helps resolve any issues that
you might experience.
