SLX 27998R User manual

Congratulations on your purchase of the SLx 5.8GHz Wireless AV
Sender System. This product has been designed to allow an audio/
video signal from equipment such as DVD players, Digital TV receivers,
Satellite Receivers and VCRs to be both watched and controlled in a
different room without the need for runs of cable or DIY!
The receiver can work within 30 metres of the Transmitter depending
on the building structure and is supplied with an Infra-Red Extender &
an Infra-Red Receiver allowing you to control your equipment from a
different room.
In this day and age, more and more equipment is becoming wireless.
To prevent interference from neighbouring AV senders, wireless routers,
DECT phones etc this system works transmitts on the 5.8GHz frequency
which makes the system is not affected by interference from standard
wireless equipment. There are also 3 operating channels to choose from
allowing you to select the channel with the least interference.
Before attempting to install the system, please read through the
instructions carefully ensuring you understand the procedure and have
all items necessary.
• Watch and control your AV equipment remotely
• Compatible with TVs and set top boxes with a SCART connection
• Latest 5.8GHz technology, unaffected by interference from cordless phones and wireless computer networks
• Transmission range up to 30m through walls, ceilings & oors(range dependent on building construction)
• Sensors allow use of existing remote controls for set top boxes, satellite, DVDs, & VCRs
NOTE:
The transmitter and
receiver can be identi-
fied by the label on the
base.

Getting the best reception
Both the Transmitter and Receiver units should be placed on flat,
stable surfaces.
Rotate the 5.8GHz Antenna on the Transmitter and Receiver so they are
standing up at 90 degrees.
Minimise the number of obstacles between the AV Transmitter and
Receiver.
Setting up your Transmitter and Receiver
Connecting the receiver
(Connects to 2nd TV (e.g. in Bedroom or Kitchen)
1
) Plug the 3.5mm Jack end of the ‘Wireless Receiver Cable’ into the AV OUT
socket on the Receiver. Ensure that the 3.5mm JACK is plugged all the way
into the AV OUT socket.
2
)
Plug the Scart end of the ‘
Wireless Receiver Cable
’ into the Scart input
on the television located in the receiving room - (See Fig. 2)
3) Connect one of the power adaptors to the DC input on the Receiver as
shown in Fig. 2. Plug the power adaptor into a mains socket and switch
the socket ON, the Power LED should come on. If the LED does not
light up, ensure that the ON/OFF switch on the Receiver is set to ON.
Infra-red receiver
4) Position the INFRA-RED RECEIVER on top/in front of your television
or any other location in direct line of sight with your remote controls
(See Fig.1). Use the adhesive pad supplied to hold it in place when you
are happy with the position.
Connecting the transmitter
(Main viewing room, e.g. Sitting Room)
5
) Plug the 3.5mm Jack end of the ‘Wireless Transmitter Cable’ into the AV IN
socket on the Transmitter. Ensure that the 3.5mm Jack is plugged all the way in
to the AV IN socket.
6) Plug the Scart end of the ‘
Wireless Transmitter Cable
’ into the Scart
output socket on your AV source equipment (satellite receiver,
VCR or DVD).
7) Plug the Infra-Red Extender cable into the Infra Red Socket on the
Transmitter as shown in Fig. 3.
8) Position one of the Infra-Red Eyes on the Infra-Red Extender lead in
front of the infra-red sensor window of your AV source equipment
(satellite receiver or VCR or DVD). The infra-red sensor window on
some satellite receivers is marked by this symbol . Make sure the
curved surface of the Infra-Red Eye is facing the sensor window as
shown in Fig. 4 and (For further tips on locating the Infra-Red sensor
window see Troubleshooting section).
9) Connect the remaining power adaptor to the DC input on the
Transmitter as shown in Fig. 3. Plug the power adaptor into a mains
socket and switch the socket ON, the Power LED shall now be lit. If
the LED does not light up, ensure that the ON/OFF switch on the
Transmitter is set to ON.
10) On the back of both the Transmitter and Receiver are 3 channel
switches. Ensure that the channel switch on both the Transmitter
and Receiver are set to the same number.
11
)
Select an appropriate AV channel on the receiving television. The TV
should now show whatever signal the Transmitter is sending and if the
infra red eye is properly positioned you will be able to control the AV
source by pointing the correct remote control at the AV Receiver.

Instructions

Problem Cause Action
No Picture or Sound The Transmitter and receiver are set to
different channels
Set to identical channels (See step 10)
The Transmitter and/or
Receiver are not powered
Check the power switch on the unit(s) are in the On position
Check that the Mains Electrical power is switched on
Check the Mains adaptors are fitted
correctly (See Steps 3 & 9)
The Transmitter and/or
Receiver Leads are incorrectly fitted/
reversed
Swap over both leads so the correct leads are used with the
Receiver/Transmitter
The leads are not inserted correctly, ensure that the scart plug
has no bent pins and it making contact with the scart socket
Transmitter and/or Receiver Units are
reversed
Swap over the Transmitter and Receiver units
The equipment providing or receiving
the AV signal are incorrectly setup
Check that the Transmitting and Receiving Equipment are
powered up and providing a Scart Input and output signal
Ensure that correct Scart input has been selected on the
Receiving equipment
Set the Scart output/input to Composite Video (CVBS)
(See Equipment Suppliers Manual for how to set)
Distance between the Transmitter and
receiver is too far
Reduce the distance between the units or position the units for a
better signal
Black and White
(Monochrome Picture)
The equipment providing or receiving
the AV signal are set to RGB, Component
Video, SVHS S Video, DVI or HDMI
Set the Scart output/input to Composite Video (CVBS)
(See Equipment Suppliers Manual for how to set)
Poor Picture Quality Interference from microwaves ovens. Move Transmitter/Receiver away from microwave.
Obstruction to signal Place away from walk ways or walk through areas
Place away from Thick walls, masonry or metalwork
Distance between the Transmitter and
receiver is too far
Reduce the distance between the units or position the units for a
better signal
The Transmitter and receiver are set to
different channels
Set to identical channels (See step 10)
The equipment providing or receiving
the AV signal are incorrectly set
The Leads are not inserted correctly, ensure that there are no
bent pins in the scart plug and it making contact
All the available scart
sockets are being used
Equipment has insufficient scart sockets Purchase an unswitched scart splitter for the transmitting equip-
ment and/or a switched scart selector for the receiving equip-
ment
Connect equipment using other connector type e.g. Coax flylead
Infra red remote con-
trol does not function
Infra-Red Eyes set up
incorrectly
Infra red transmitting and/or receiving eyes are not positioned
correctly (See Step 8)
Sunlight or high output
lighting is blocking the Signal
Block the excessive light
Incorrect Remote used Use Original or compatible Remote controls
Infra red Transmitter or
receiver signal is obstructed
Remove obstruction and position the Infra red eyes for a better
signal
Difficulty finding the Infra red sensor on
the Transmitting Equipment
(DVD, Satellite etc)
(See Figs 4 and 8) and use a second person aiming the remote
control at the AV Receiver while the first person moves the Infra
red eyes in front of the Transmitting Equipment
Intermittent or no Infra red operation Check that the Infra red leads are correctly inserted into the Infra
red Socket(s)
Check the remote works directly with the Transmitting equip-
ment and that the batteries are not discharged
Cable Box which use IRDA Remote
controls
Some cable boxes use an IRDA remote control system these will
not work with you AV sender (Contact your Cable supplier to see
if your box uses IRDA
