4. Setup Instructions
4.1. Charging the Units
Before first use, fully charge both the transmitter and receiver.
- Connect the supplied USB-C 2-in-1 charging cable to both the transmitter and receiver.
- Plug the USB-A end of the cable into a standard USB power adapter (not included) or a computer USB port.
- The battery indicator LEDs will show charging status. Once fully charged, the LEDs will indicate a full battery.

4.2. Pairing the Transmitter and Receiver
The FW2D units are typically pre-paired from the factory. If re-pairing is needed or for multi-device setup:
- Power on both the transmitter and receiver by pressing and holding their respective power buttons.
- The units will automatically attempt to pair. The pairing status LEDs will indicate a successful connection.
- If pairing fails or you wish to change channels, short press the power button on both units simultaneously to cycle through the 4 available channel groups until they connect.

4.3. Connecting to Instruments and Amplifiers
- Plug the transmitter (TX) into the 6.35mm output jack of your instrument (e.g., guitar, bass, ukulele).
- Plug the receiver (RX) into the 6.35mm input jack of your amplifier, pedal, or mixer.
- Ensure both units are powered on and successfully paired.

5. Operating Instructions
5.1. Power On/Off
To power on or off either the transmitter or receiver, press and hold the power button for approximately 2-3 seconds until the indicator lights illuminate or turn off.
5.2. Using the Patented Silent Plug
The FW2D features a unique silent plug design. When you plug or unplug the unit from an instrument or amplifier, the audio signal is automatically cut. This prevents loud "buzz" or "pop" noises, allowing for quiet instrument changes without needing to turn off your amplifier or other gear.

5.3. Multi-Device Operation
The FW2D system supports up to 4 sets of transmitters and receivers operating simultaneously without interference. Each set must be on a different channel group. Additionally, one transmitter can send signals to up to 4 receivers of the same model.
- For multiple instruments: Ensure each transmitter-receiver pair is set to a unique channel group. Cycle channels by short-pressing the power button until a clear connection is established.
- For one instrument to multiple amplifiers: Pair one transmitter with multiple receivers (up to 4), ensuring all units are on the same channel group.
