4. Setup Guide

4.1 Charging the Devices

Before first use, fully charge the transmitter (TX) and receiver (RX) units using the provided USB-C charging cables. Connect the cables to a standard USB power adapter (not included) or a computer's USB port. The OLED display will indicate charging status.

4.2 Powering On/Off

• Power On: Long press the power button on both the TX and RX units until the OLED display illuminates.
• Power Off: Long press the power button again on both units until the display turns off.

4.3 Connecting to Recording Devices

The BY-XM6 S2 system is designed for plug-and-play operation. The TX and RX units will automatically pair upon powering on. If pairing fails, refer to the troubleshooting section.

• For Cameras (DSLR/Mirrorless): Use the 3.5mm TRS to TRS output cable. Connect one end to the RX's 'OUT' port and the other end to your camera's microphone input.
• For Smartphones/Tablets: Use the 3.5mm TRS to TRRS output cable. Connect one end to the RX's 'OUT' port and the other end to your smartphone's headphone/microphone jack. For devices without a 3.5mm jack, an appropriate adapter (e.g., USB-C to 3.5mm or Lightning to 3.5mm) may be required (not included).
• Connecting Lavalier Microphone: Plug the lavalier microphone into the 'MIC IN' port on the TX unit. Ensure it is securely connected.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Mute Function

To mute the transmitter, short press the mute button on the TX unit. A mute icon will appear on the OLED display. Short press again to unmute.

5.2 Gain Control

Adjust the audio input gain on the TX unit to optimize sound levels and prevent distortion. Use the '+' and '-' buttons to increase or decrease the gain. Monitor the audio level bar on the OLED display to ensure levels are within the optimal range.

The receiver (RX) allows you to switch between mono and stereo output modes. Navigate through the menu on the RX unit to select the desired mode.
