  1. Identify Your TV's Audio Output Port:

  2. Connect Power to the Base Station:

    Plug the provided power adapter into the DC 5V IN port on the back of the base station, then connect it to a power outlet.

  3. Connect the Base Station to Your TV:

    Use the appropriate cable for your TV's audio output port:

    • Optical Connection: If your TV has an Optical (SPDIF/TOSLINK) output, use the optical cable. Connect one end to your TV's optical output and the other end to the OPTICAL input on the base station.
    • Optical cable connected from TV to headphone base

      Connecting the optical cable from the TV's digital audio output to the base station.

    • RCA Connection: If your TV has RCA (Red/White) audio output, use the RCA cable. Connect the red and white plugs to the corresponding output jacks on your TV, and the 3.5mm end to the AUX input on the base station.
    • 3.5mm AUX/Headphone Connection: If your TV has a 3.5mm headphone jack, use the 3.5mm AUX cable. Connect one end to your TV's headphone jack and the other end to the AUX input on the base station.

    Important Note for Optical Connection:

    Due to the wide range of TV models and settings, if you are using the Optical connection, you may need to adjust your TV's audio output settings. Navigate to your TV's audio settings menu and change the Audio Format (or Digital Audio Output Format) to PCM (Pulse Code Modulation). Avoid Dolby Digital or DTS formats as they are not supported by this device.

  4. Power On the Base Station and Select Input:

    Slide the SOURCE ON/OFF switch on the base station to the 'ON' position. Then, slide the AUX/OPTICAL Mode switch to the correct position corresponding to the cable you used (OPTICAL or AUX). The 'OPERATING' light on the base station will turn green when a successful connection is established.

  5. Power On the Headphones:

    Press and hold the power button on the headphones for approximately 3 seconds to turn them on. The indicator light on the headphones will turn red, signifying that they are connected to the base station.
