Operating Instructions

The BLACKHORSE Bluetooth Receiver is designed for straightforward operation:

• Power On/Off: The device powers on automatically when connected to power. To turn off, disconnect the power cable.
• Pairing: When powered on, the receiver automatically enters pairing mode. If already connected, it will attempt to reconnect to the last paired device. To force pairing mode, you may need to disconnect from the currently paired device on your phone.
• Play/Pause: The large central button on the receiver can be used to play or pause audio playback.
• Connecting Multiple Devices: The receiver supports connecting to two devices simultaneously. Once the first device is paired, you can pair a second device. The receiver will manage audio input from both.

Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your BLACKHORSE Bluetooth Receiver, please follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Keep the device clean by wiping it with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Do not expose the device to extreme temperatures, humidity, or direct sunlight.
• Avoid dropping or subjecting the device to strong impacts.
• Store the device in a cool, dry place when not in use for extended periods.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your BLACKHORSE Bluetooth Receiver, please refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• No Sound:
  • Ensure the receiver is properly powered on and the blue indicator light is solid.
  • Verify that the audio cables (AUX or RCA) are securely connected to both the receiver and your audio system's input.
  • Check the volume levels on both your streaming device and your audio system.
  • Confirm that your streaming device is successfully paired and connected to the receiver (look for "TaNix-09" in your Bluetooth settings).
• Loud Voice Prompts ("Disconnected", "Pairing"):
  • The voice prompts on this device cannot be deactivated or have their volume adjusted independently. This is a design characteristic.
  • Consider placing the receiver in a location where the prompts are less disruptive, or disconnect power when not actively using it, especially in quiet environments like bedrooms.
• Device Shuts Off Automatically / Cannot Reconnect:
  • The receiver is designed to automatically shut off after a period of inactivity or disconnection to conserve power.
  • To re-establish connection after an auto-shutdown, you may need to unplug the power cable from the receiver and then plug it back in to restart the device.
• Cannot Pair with Device:
  • Ensure the receiver is in pairing mode (flashing blue light).
  • Make sure Bluetooth is enabled on your streaming device and it is within range.
  • Try turning off Bluetooth on other nearby devices that might be attempting to connect.
  • Restart both the receiver (by unplugging and replugging) and your streaming device.
• Short Bluetooth Range / Intermittent Connection:
  • Ensure there are no significant obstacles (walls, large metal objects) between the receiver and your streaming device.
  • Move your streaming device closer to the receiver.
  • Avoid placing the receiver near other wireless devices that might cause interference (e.g., Wi-Fi routers, microwaves).
