TruLink Wireless USB Host Adapter (part number: 29578) to ensure compatibility.
Do the following before installation:
Make sure the antenna is connected to the Wireless Audio Device Adapter.
Plug the supplied power adapter into your Wireless Audio Device Adapter.
Be certain your Wireless USB host adapter is connected to the PC and necessary software has
been loaded.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
1. My Wireless USB Host Adapter is plugged into my computer and my Wireless Audio Adapter
is powered but I do not hear anything out of my speakers. What’s wrong?
Check the Wireless USB Manager to see if there is an icon for your Wireless Audio Adapter. If there
is no icon, try unplugging and then plugging in your Wireless USB Host Adapter to reload the
Wireless Audio Adapter.
If you see an icon that is grayed out in the Wireless USB Manager, try resetting the Wireless Audio
Adapter by unplugging its power and plugging it back in. You should see the icon in the Wireless USB
Manager appear in color when it is connected.
Still not connected?
If you are using an audio source such as an A/V receiver, make sure the receiver is on the right input
channel.
