Installation & User Guide

There are four possible channels for the wireless A/V system. Any of the four can be
used, but the receiver must be on the same channel as the transmitter to receive the audio
and video. The channel selector is on the side of the receiver. The channel selector for
the transmitter is under the plastic cap. Only one of the switches should be in the ON
position at a time, the rest should be OFF. The switch that is in the ON position is the
selected channel.
The wireless transmission is omni directional, however best results may be obtained
when the transmitter and receiver are facing each other. Obstructions such as walls and
floors may decreasethe maximum distance between the receiver and transmitter.
Interference and noise may be noticed when other transmitters are in use, such as cordless
phones, microwaves, aircraft radar, etc.
If noise is present, try relocating the devices or changing the channel on the transmitter
and receiver.
