INTRODUCTION Your Wireless Audio/Video Sender system consists of a Sender unit whichyou connect to your satellite receiver, DVD player, etc., and a Receiverunit that you connect to a TV anywhere in your home. The Audio/VideoSender converts the A/V signal from your A/V product into a 2.4 GHzwireless Radio Frequency (RF) signal and transmits it (even through walls)to the Audio/Video Receiver unit. The Audio/Video Receiver converts thesignal back to an A/V signal and passes it through a cable to your TV’sCOAX input, or A/V input jacks.The Audio/Video Sender system also includes an IR Extender feature. Thislets you remotely control the A/V product that the Sender is connected to,from the location where the Receiver is located. For example, you cancontrol a DVD Player in your living room, while watching it on a TV inyour bedroom.There are just a few simple steps to follow to hook up your Audio/VideoSender system to a satellite receiver, VCR, DVD Player, or Cable Box.CONTENTS INTRODUCTION ........................................................................ 3CONTROLS AND CONNECTIONS .................................................. 4SENDER ............................................................................ 4RECEIVER .......................................................................... 5CONNECTING UP..................................................................... 6HOOKING UP THE SENDER .................................................... 6HOOKING UP THE RECEIVER ................................................. 8FINE TUNING YOUR SYSTEM .................................................... 10IR EXTENDER FEATURE ......................................................... 11

1110FINE TUNING YOUR SYSTEM The Wireless Audio/Video Sender usually works best with the flat faces ofthe antennas on the Sender and Receiver units facing each other, seediagram below. Sometimes, however, reflections and other effects in yourhome may affect the signal so that some adjustment of either the Sender orReceiver antenna might be necessary to get the best signal.If you are not getting any sound or picture at all from the Receiver:• Check that the CHANNEL slide switch (labeled A, B, C, D) on bothunits is set to the same letter. The switch is on the bottom of the Senderunit and it’s under the flip-up antenna on the Receiver unit.• Check that both the Sender’s and Receiver’s power supplies areplugged in.• Check that the ON/OFF switch on the Sender and Receiver are ON.If the video or sound is poor, or there is interference:Try changing the channel on both units. Do this by adjusting theCHANNEL slide switch on each unit to any position from A to D. Makesure both units are set to the same letter.VCRDVDIR emitter IR emitter IR extender jackUSING THE IR EXTENDER FEATUREThe IR extender feature lets you use your original remote control to controlthe A/V product that the Audio/Video Sender is connected to.
