7. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No sound or intermittent sound | Devices not powered on; Transmitter and Receiver on different channels; Low battery; Loose connection; Interference. | Ensure both devices are ON. Press the CHANNEL button on both to match channels. Charge both devices fully. Check that plugs are securely inserted. Move away from other wireless devices. |
| Short transmission range | Obstructions (walls, large objects); Interference; Low battery. | Ensure a clear line of sight between transmitter and receiver. Change channels to avoid interference. Fully charge both devices. |
| Humming or static noise | Interference from other electronic devices; Ground loop issues (less common with wireless). | Change channels. Move the system away from Wi-Fi routers, microwaves, or other 5.8GHz devices. |
| Device not charging | Faulty USB cable or power adapter; Device malfunction. | Try a different USB cable and power adapter. Ensure connections are secure. |
