Transmitter Charging Dock

The transmitter serves as the base station for the wireless headphones and also functions as their charging dock. It features input ports for Optical, RCA, and AUX audio connections from your TV or other audio sources. The headphones can be easily charged by placing them on the dock, utilizing contact points for a wire-free recharge.

Optical Fiber Splitter

The included Toslink 1-in-2-out optical fiber splitter allows you to duplicate a single optical audio output into two separate optical outputs. This is useful for connecting your TV's optical audio to both the headphone transmitter and another device like a soundbar simultaneously.

Setup

1. Charging the Headphones

Before first use, fully charge the headphones. Place the headphones onto the transmitter charging dock. The indicator light on the dock will show charging status. A full charge provides approximately 10 hours of audio playtime.

2. Connecting the Transmitter to Your TV

The transmitter supports Optical, RCA, and AUX audio inputs. Choose the appropriate cable based on your TV's available audio output port.

• Optical Connection (Recommended): Use the provided optical audio cable. Connect one end to your TV's Optical OUT port and the other end to the Optical IN port on the transmitter. Ensure the protective caps are removed from the optical cable ends before insertion.
• RCA Connection: Use the provided RCA audio cable. Connect the red and white plugs to the corresponding red and white RCA Audio OUT ports on your TV. Connect the other end to the RCA IN ports on the transmitter.
• AUX Connection: If your TV has a 3.5mm audio output (headphone jack), you can use a 3.5mm audio cable (not included) to connect it to the AUX IN port on the transmitter.

Note: The system does not support HDMI audio output. Ensure your TV's audio output is set to the correct format (e.g., PCM for optical).

3. Using the Optical Fiber Splitter (Optional)

If you need to connect both the headphone transmitter and another optical audio device (e.g., a soundbar) to a single optical output on your TV, use the optical fiber splitter:

1. Connect one end of an optical audio cable (not included) to your TV's Optical OUT port.
2. Connect the other end of this cable to the single input port on the optical fiber splitter.
3. Connect one optical audio cable from one of the splitter's output ports to the Optical IN port on the ANSTEN AS60 transmitter.
4. Connect another optical audio cable from the second splitter's output port to the optical input of your other audio device (e.g., soundbar).
