Setup

Before using the adapter, ensure it is fully charged. Connect the Micro USB DC Power Cable to the adapter's charging port and the other end to a 5V/0.5A USB power source (e.g., computer USB port, USB wall adapter). The charging indicator will show the charging status.

Charging the Device

1. Locate the Micro USB charging port on the adapter.
2. Connect the supplied Micro USB cable to the adapter and a USB power source.
3. Allow the device to charge until the charging indicator light changes, typically indicating a full charge.

Operating Modes

The ASHATA adapter supports two primary operating modes: Transmitter (TX) and Receiver (RX).

1. Receiver Mode (RX)

In Receiver mode, the adapter receives audio wirelessly from a Bluetooth-enabled device (e.g., smartphone, tablet, laptop) and outputs it to a non-Bluetooth audio system (e.g., wired headphones, home stereo, car audio system).

1. Switch to RX Mode: Ensure the adapter is in Receiver mode. The device typically has a switch or button to toggle between TX and RX.
2. Connect to Audio Output: Use the supplied 3.5mm to 3.5mm audio cable or 3.5mm to RCA audio cable to connect the adapter's 3.5mm output port to the audio input of your non-Bluetooth device (e.g., AUX-in on a speaker, headphone jack on an amplifier).
3. Pair with Bluetooth Device: Turn on the adapter. It will automatically enter pairing mode (indicated by a flashing LED). On your Bluetooth-enabled device (e.g., phone), search for Bluetooth devices and select "ASHATA Adapter" (or similar name) to pair.
4. Play Audio: Once paired, play audio on your Bluetooth device, and the sound will be transmitted wirelessly to your connected audio system.

2. Transmitter Mode (TX)

In Transmitter mode, the adapter takes audio from a non-Bluetooth device (e.g., TV, CD player, PC) and transmits it wirelessly to a Bluetooth-enabled audio device (e.g., Bluetooth headphones, Bluetooth speaker).

1. Switch to TX Mode: Ensure the adapter is in Transmitter mode.
2. Connect to Audio Source: Use the supplied 3.5mm to 3.5mm audio cable or 3.5mm to RCA audio cable to connect the adapter's 3.5mm input port to the audio output of your non-Bluetooth device (e.g., headphone jack on a TV, audio out on a CD player).
3. Pair with Bluetooth Receiver: Turn on the adapter. It will automatically enter pairing mode. Put your Bluetooth headphones or speaker into pairing mode. The adapter will automatically search for and connect to nearby Bluetooth receiving devices.
4. Play Audio: Once connected, play audio from your non-Bluetooth source, and the sound will be transmitted wirelessly to your Bluetooth headphones/speaker.
