Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your BOYA BY-V2 system, refer to the following common solutions:
| Issue | Possible Solution |
|---|---|
| Receiver not turning on/no indicator light | Ensure the receiver is fully charged. Try plugging it into a different power source or iOS device to rule out device-specific issues. If the issue persists, contact customer support. |
| Microphone not pairing with receiver | Ensure both the transmitter(s) and receiver are powered on. They should pair automatically. If not, try turning both off and on again. Verify the receiver is securely plugged into the iOS device. |
| Poor sound quality with Noise Reduction (NR) mode active | While NR mode reduces background noise, it can sometimes alter voice quality. If voice clarity is a priority in a quiet environment, try disabling the NR mode (blue light) and use the standard mode (green light). |
| No audio during playback with receiver plugged in | Some iOS devices may require the receiver to be unplugged to play back recorded audio through the device's speakers. Unplug the receiver and try playing back the audio. |
