Things to Consider Before You Connect
Protect Against Power Surges
0 Connect all components before you plug any of their power cords into the wall outlet.
O Turn off all components before you connect or disconnect any cables.
Protect Components from Overheating
' Don't block ventilation holes on any of the components Arrange the components so that air can
circulate freely.
- Don't stack components.
0 When you place components in a stand, make sure you allow adequate ventilation.
- lf you connect an audio receiver or amplifier, place it on the top shelf so the heated air from it
won't flow around other components.
Position Cables Properly to Avoid Audio Interference
0 insert each cable firmly into the designated jack.
- If you place components above the TV, route all cables down the side of the back of the TV instead
of straight down the middle of the back of the TV.
Connection Pictures
Audio cables are usually bundled together For better visibility, the connection pictures in this book
show each cable separately (audio left, audio right. and video).

Improving Performance
Orientation of the Antennas
Proper orientation of the antennas is important for good performance You may find that the system
works better with one or more of the antennas in the horizontal (flat) position The receiver and
transmitter tend to operate better in high locations, where the signal path is wider and stronger (on a
shelf, for examplei Watch the receiver signal strength indicators for indication of signal strength
You may also need to experiment with the position of the remote control antenna on the transmitter
unit. See what position works the best for the remote control.

antennas can rotate to multiple positions.
You may want to try several different
angles for the best receptionr
Fine Tuning the Lyra Wireless
To get the best signal reception, the Lyra Wireless units should face each other using an imaginary "line
of sight." You can place the transmitter and receiver in separate rooms, or even separate floors of your
house, so you don't have to worry about the units being close to each other. Other barriers in your
house may affect the signal, so you may need to adjust the positions of the transmitter and receiver
somewhat.
if the transmitter is sending the signal to the receiver properly, you should see some of the receiver's
signal strength meter indicators light up.
If there is no signal at all
Make sure the CHANNEL switch on the back of both units is set to the same number.

Chapter 1: Connections and Setup
—_________fi__
If the signal is weak or there is interference
Try changing the channel on both units. Make sure the CHANNEL switch is set to the same channel on
both unitsl
Avoiding Interference
Cordless Phone and Baby Monitor Interference
The transmitter and receiver have 4 RF channels to choose from, but ifyou have a 900Mhz cordless
phone or baby monitor, you should pick a channel that doesn't interfere with the frequency the phone/
monitor transmits on. Channel 4 is typically the channel with the least interference with telephones
and baby monitors. if you have interference, leave your cordless phone or monitor on, then switch to a
channel on both Lyra Wireless units that is clear.
