Setup

Follow these steps to set up your Sennheiser TR 5000 Transmitter.

1. Connect Power: Connect the power supply unit to the transmitter's power input port and then plug it into a wall outlet. The power indicator should illuminate.
2. Connect to Audio Source:
   • For TV: Use the appropriate audio cable (e.g., optical, RCA, 3.5mm) to connect the transmitter's audio input to your TV's audio output. Ensure your TV's audio output is enabled and set to the correct format (e.g., PCM for optical).
   • For Other Audio Devices: Connect to your stereo system, receiver, or other audio source using the suitable audio cable.
3. Place Transmitter: Position the transmitter on a stable, flat surface, ideally near your TV or audio source, and within range of where you will be using your headphones. Avoid placing it near large metal objects or other electronic devices that may cause interference.
4. Charge Headphones: Place your compatible Sennheiser RS5000, Flex5000, or RS 5200 headphones onto the docking cradle of the TR 5000 transmitter to ensure they are charged before first use.
