Selecting an improper voltage setting can damage the unit. To change its setting, only remove *one* screw of the cover and slide it aside to expose the selector.

TROUBLESHOOTING

If the sound is distorted: Try lowering the volume control of your sound source or musical instrument. Also, try to reduce the overall volume of TransActive Wireless. If there is too much bass: Try adjusting the tone or EQ control on your sound source to lower the bass level. This will allow you to play the music louder before clipping (distortion) occurs. If there is a high-pitched whistling noise when using microphones: This is probably feedback. Point the microphones away from the speaker. If you can’t hear the microphone over the music volume: Turn down the music volume from your source.

PAIRING A BLUETOOTH DEVICE

1. Turn on your Bluetooth device.

2. Power on TransActive Wireless and it will automatically go into pairing mode to search for Bluetooth devices.

You will know you are in pairing mode when the LED is blank.

3. If your Bluetooth device is not able to pair to TransActive Wireless, press the disconnect button on TransActive

Wireless to break previous Bluetooth connections and reset the Bluetooth module.

4. Navigate to your Bluetooth device’s setup screen, find “Alesis TransAct” and connect.

Note: If your Bluetooth device prompts for a pairing code, enter ‘0000’.

5. TransActive Wireless LED will light up solid when it is 'paired'.

Note: Users should consider updating their OS if experiencing trouble with pairing or playing music.

6. To disconnect pairing, press the ‘Disconnect’ button on TransActive Wireless.
