3. Setup
Follow these steps to set up your j5create JVAW53 Wireless Display HDMI Extender:
- Connect the Transmitter (TX) Unit:
- Connect one end of an HDMI cable to the HDMI output port of your source device (e.g., laptop, DVD player, game console).
- Connect the other end of the HDMI cable to the HDMI input port on the JVAW53 Transmitter (TX) unit.
- Connect one of the power adapters to the power input port on the TX unit and plug it into a power outlet.
- If using IR pass-through, connect the IR Blaster cable to the IR OUT port on the TX unit and position the IR blaster head near the IR sensor of your source device.
- Connect the Receiver (RX) Unit:
- Connect one end of the second HDMI cable to the HDMI input port of your display device (e.g., TV, projector, monitor).
- Connect the other end of the HDMI cable to the HDMI output port on the JVAW53 Receiver (RX) unit.
- Connect the second power adapter to the power input port on the RX unit and plug it into a power outlet.
- If using IR pass-through, connect the IR Receiver cable to the IR IN port on the RX unit and place the IR receiver head in a location where it can receive signals from your remote control.
- Power On and Pair:
- Ensure both TX and RX units are powered on. The LED indicators on both units should illuminate.
- The units are pre-paired from the factory. They should automatically establish a connection. The LED indicator will change to solid green when a stable connection is made.
- If no connection is established, ensure both units are within the recommended range and there are no significant obstructions.

4.2 IR Pass-Through Functionality
The IR pass-through feature allows you to control your source device (e.g., DVD player, cable box) from the location of your display using its original remote control.
- Point your source device's remote control at the IR Receiver head connected to the RX unit.
- The signal will be transmitted wirelessly to the TX unit.
- The IR Blaster connected to the TX unit will then relay the command to your source device.

4.3 Optimal Performance Tips
- Line of Sight: For best results, ensure a clear line of sight between the TX and RX units.
- Obstructions: Solid and nonporous materials such as steel, concrete, brick, and glass may shorten the transmission distance or cause signal loss.
- Interference: Keep the units away from other wireless devices (e.g., Wi-Fi routers, cordless phones) that operate on similar frequencies to minimize interference.

5. Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your j5create JVAW53 Wireless Display HDMI Extender, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the exterior of the units. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosols.
- Storage: When not in use for extended periods, store the units in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Handling: Avoid dropping or subjecting the units to strong impacts, as this can damage internal components.
- Ventilation: Ensure the units have adequate ventilation to prevent overheating. Do not block the ventilation holes.
6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your JVAW53 extender, please refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No video/audio output on display. | Loose connections, power issue, units not paired, incompatible resolution. | Check all HDMI and power connections. Ensure both TX and RX units are powered on and their LEDs indicate a stable connection. Try a different HDMI cable. Ensure your source device's resolution is supported (up to 1080p@60Hz). |
| Intermittent signal or poor video quality. | Obstructions, excessive distance, interference. | Reduce the distance between TX and RX units. Remove any major obstructions. Move units away from other wireless devices. Ensure units have clear line of sight. |
| IR remote control not working. | IR cables not properly connected, IR blaster/receiver misaligned, remote control battery low. | Ensure IR Blaster is connected to TX's IR OUT and IR Receiver to RX's IR IN. Verify the IR blaster head is directly facing the source device's IR sensor. Check remote control batteries. Ensure the IR receiver head is positioned to receive signals from your remote. |
| Units not pairing. | Units too far apart, interference, power cycle needed. | Bring units closer together. Power cycle both TX and RX units (unplug and replug power). Ensure no strong interference sources are nearby. |
