6. Multiple Transmitters (Optional)

The TIMBOOTECH Q3 system allows one receiver (RX) to pair with up to 8 transmitters (TXs). This feature is useful for environments where multiple sources need to share a single display, such as conference rooms.

1. Connect and power on all desired TX units to their respective source devices.
2. Follow the pairing instructions (Section 4.3) for each additional TX unit to pair it with the RX.
3. To switch between active TX units, simply press the function button on the desired TX unit.

7. Troubleshooting

• No Signal or Black Screen:
  • Ensure both TX and RX units are properly powered and their indicator lights are solid.
  • Verify that the display device is set to the correct HDMI input source.
  • Check all HDMI and USB-C cable connections for looseness.
  • Attempt to re-pair the TX and RX units as described in Section 4.3.
• Intermittent Signal or Lag:
  • Reduce the distance between the TX and RX units. The maximum range is 165ft/50m in line of sight, but obstacles (walls, furniture) can reduce this.
  • Minimize physical obstructions between the units.
  • Ensure both units are receiving adequate power (5V/2A). Try using a dedicated wall adapter if powering from a device's USB port.
  • Avoid placing units near other wireless devices that may cause interference (e.g., Wi-Fi routers, microwaves).
• No Audio:
  • Check the audio settings on your source device and ensure the volume is not muted.
  • Verify the audio output settings on your display device.
• Unable to Cast from Smartphone/Tablet:
  • Ensure your mobile device is connected to the RX unit's Wi-Fi hotspot.
  • Confirm that your mobile device supports Miracast, Airplay, or DLNA.
  • Some streaming apps (e.g., Netflix, Hulu) may have HDCP protection that prevents screen mirroring from mobile devices.
