7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Marmitek TV Anywhere Wireless HD, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

7.1 No Signal or Poor Image Quality

• Check Connections: Ensure all HDMI and power cables are securely connected to both the transmitter and receiver.
• Power Status: Verify that both the transmitter and receiver units are powered on and their indicator lights are active.
• Distance and Obstructions: The wireless signal can be affected by distance and physical barriers. Try reducing the distance between the transmitter and receiver, or repositioning them to avoid thick walls, metal objects, or other electronic devices that may cause interference.
• Interference: Other wireless devices operating on the 2.4 GHz frequency band (e.g., Wi-Fi routers, cordless phones) can cause interference. Try changing the channel on your Wi-Fi router or moving the units away from such devices.
• Source/Display Compatibility: Ensure your HDMI source and display devices are functioning correctly when connected directly.

7.2 IR Remote Control Not Working

• IR Blaster Placement: Ensure the IR blaster cable connected to the transmitter is positioned directly in front of the IR sensor of your source device.
• IR Receiver Placement: Ensure the IR receiver cable connected to the receiver is placed in a clear line of sight to your remote control.
• Battery Check: Verify that your remote control has fresh batteries.

7.3 USB KVM Issues

• USB Connections: Ensure the USB keyboard and mouse are properly connected to the receiver.
• Compatibility: While most standard USB keyboards and mice are supported, some specialized gaming peripherals may not function correctly.
• Lag: If experiencing significant lag, try reducing the distance between the units or minimizing wireless interference.

7.4 Overheating

• Ensure both units have adequate ventilation. Do not place them in enclosed spaces or stack other devices on top of them.
• If a unit feels excessively hot, disconnect power, allow it to cool down, and then reposition it in a more open area.
