Use TX mode to send audio wirelessly from a non-Bluetooth device (e.g., TV, PC, MP3 player) to Bluetooth headphones or speakers.

  1. Switch to TX: Locate the mode switch on the side of the adapter and slide it to the 'TX' position.
  2. Connect Audio Source: Plug one end of the 3.5mm audio cable into the BM-LE505's audio input port and the other end into the audio output (headphone jack) of your non-Bluetooth device (e.g., TV, PC).
  3. Enter Pairing State: Press and hold either the 'A' or 'B' pairing button on the adapter. The corresponding 'A' or 'B' light will flash quickly, indicating it's in pairing mode.
  4. Pair with Bluetooth Device: Put your Bluetooth headphones or speaker into pairing mode. They should automatically connect to the BM-LE505. Once connected, the 'A' or 'B' light on the adapter will remain solid.
