User Instruction

Congratulations on selecting the Creative GigaWorks® T20W Series II high-performance wireless stereo
speakers. Complementing Creative Wireless Audio transmitters like Creative Sound Blaster

®

X-Fi®
Notebook, you can now enjoy impressive hi-fi stereo performance with X-Fi technology wirelessly, wherever
you are in your home.

Please refer to your Creative Wireless Audio Transmitters’ (e.g. SoundBlaster X-Fi Notebook)
User’s Guide for Enabling Wireless Music Control/Settings, Streaming Music Wirelessly and
Trouble Shooting. Or at http://support.creative.com

NOTE: The term “transmitter” used throughout this User’s Guide refers to the Creative Sound
Blaster

®

X-Fi® Notebook. “Speaker” refers to Creative GigaWorks® T20W Series II.

1) For Auto Pairing (Broadcast control)

(Note: GigaWorks T20W Series II factory default setting is in Broadcast).

a) Turn on both your transmitter and speaker.
b) The speaker will automatically search a signal to establish a connection. After a few seconds, the
“CONNECT” LED, at the back of the right speaker lights up green. Wireless streaming is enabled
and ready.
c) Broadcast can be used on any number of speakers.

2) For manual Pairing (Zone control)

The Zone feature enables you to stream music to a maximum of four selected wireless speakers.
It requires manual pairing and each device is assigned to an available zone.

a) Press the “CONNECT” button once and release on both your speaker and transmitter to establish
a connection. Both the LEDs flashes and then lights up green when pairing is successful.

(Note: While the Speaker’s “CONNECT” LED is flashing, you have three minutes to pair a device. If you have not done so before the
time is up, the LED stops flashing and you will have to press the “CONNECT” LED button again for manual pairing).

3) Speaker returning to factory default setting (Broadcast control)

Return to the factory default setting if you want to:

• reset your zone numbering sequence, or

• “unpair” a speaker.

Press and hold the "CONNECT" button on your speaker for approximately 6 seconds, the LED flashes
twice and followed by 6 fast flashes.

Note: To reset your transmitter, consult its User’s Guide.

Problems with Wireless Features

A) Music is not being transmitted to my GigaWorks T20W Series II.
Check the following:

• Transmitter and speaker are turned on.

• Under the Wireless Music Control setting of Entertainment Mode, the Enable Wireless Music Control
checkbox is selected.

• Reposition your transmitter or speaker so that there are fewer objects (for example, multiple walls or large
metal structures) between them.

• Reduce the distance between your transmitter and speakers. Maximum operating distance between
the two is 30 meters (100 feet).*

* Measured in open space. Walls and structures may affect range of device.

B) Intermittent connectivity. Every electronic device is subject to radio frequency (RF) interference from
external sources.

To reduce interference, follow these instructions:

• Check for possible sources of radio frequency (RF) interference and reposition these devices.

• Reposition or reduce the distance between your transmitter and speaker.

• Place your speakers away from large metal surfaces.

Wireless Device

Switch off the device where it is prohibited, or
when its use may cause danger or interference
such as inside an aircraft, hospitals, or near
refuelling points.

Périphérique sans fil

Éteignez le périphérique lorsqu’il est interdit ou
lorsque son utilisation peut entraîner un danger
ou des interférences, comme dans un avion,
un hôpital ou près de postes d'avitaillement.

State of California Proposition 65:
WARNING: Handling this product may expose you to chemicals known to the State of

California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Wash hands after handling.

Explanatory Note

California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 (Proposition 65) requires
special product labeling for products containing certain chemicals known to the State of
California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Creative has chosen to
provide a warning based on its knowledge about the presence of one or more listed
chemicals without attempting to evaluate the level of exposure. With Creative’s products,
the exposure may be below the Proposition 65 level of concern, or could even be zero.
However, out of an abundance of caution, Creative has elected to place the Proposition 65
warning on its products.

Instructions pour l’utilisateur

Nous vous félicitons d’avoir choisi les haut-parleurs stéréo sans fil haute performance Creative GigaWorks

®

T20W Series II. Utilisé en complément des transmetteurs Creative Wireless Audio comme Creative Sound
Blaster® X-Fi® Notebook, vous pouvez maintenant profiter d’impressionnantes performances stéréo hi-fi avec
la technologie sans fil X-Fi, où que vous soyez dans la maison.

Veuillez consulter le Guide de l’utilisateur des transmetteurs Creative Wireless Audio (par ex.,
SoundBlaster X-Fi Notebook) pour les catégories Activation du contrôle/des paramètres de la
musique sans fil, Diffusion de musique sans fil et Dépannage. Ou à http://support.creative.com

REMARQUE : Le terme « transmetteur » utilisé dans le Guide de l'utilisateur concerne le Creative
Sound Blaster

®

X-Fi® Notebook. “Haut-parleur” concerne Creative GigaWorks® T20W Series II.

1) Pour un couplage automatique (contrôle de la Diffusion)

(Remarque : Le paramètre d’usine par défaut de GigaWorks T20W Series II est Diffusion).

a) Activez le transmetteur et le haut-parleur.
b) Le haut-parleur recherchera automatiquement un signal pour établir une connexion. Après quelques
secondes, le voyant “CONNECT”, situé au dos du haut-parleur droit, s’allume en vert. La diffusion sans fil
est activée et prête à fonctionner.
c) Diffusion peut s’utiliser sur plusieurs haut-parleurs.

2) Pour un couplage manuel (contrôle de la Zone)

La fonctionnalité Zone vous permet de diffuser de la musique sur un maximum de quatre haut-parleurs sans fil
sélectionnés. Elle requiert un couplage manuel, chaque périphérique étant attribué à une zone disponible.

a) Pour établir une connexion, appuyez une fois sur le bouton “CONNECT” du haut-parleur et du transmet
teur, puis relâchez. Les deux voyants clignotent, puis s’allument en vert pour indiquer la réussite du couplage.

(Remarque : Lorsque le voyant “CONNECT ” du haut-parleur clignote, vous avez trois minutes pour coupler le périphérique. Si vous manquez

cet intervalle, le voyant cesse de clignoter et vous devrez réappuyer dessus pour effectuer le couplage manuel).

3) Haut-parleur revenant au paramètre d'usine par défaut (contrôle de la Diffusion)

Revenez au paramètre d’usine par défaut si vous voulez :

• redéfinir la séquence de numérotation des zones

• “découpler” un haut-parleur.

Appuyez et maintenez enfoncé le bouton “CONNECT” de votre haut-parleur pendant environ 6 secondes.
Le voyant clignote deux fois, puis six fois plus rapidement.

Remarque : Pour reconfigurer votre transmetteur, consultez le Guide de l’utilisateur.

Problèmes rencontrés avec les fonctionnalités sans fil

A) La musique n’est pas transmise à mon GigaWorks T20W Series II.
Vérifiez les éléments suivants :

• Le transmetteur et le haut-parleur sont activés.

• Sous le paramètre Contrôle de la musique sans fil du mode Divertissement, la case Activer le contrôle de la
musique sans fil est cochée.

• Repositionnez votre transmetteur ou votre haut-parleur pour réduire le nombre d’objets les séparant (par
exemple, plusieurs murs ou de larges structures métalliques).

• Réduisez la distance séparant votre transmetteur des haut-parleurs. La distance de fonctionnement
maximale entre le transmetteur et les haut-parleurs est de 30 mètres (100 pieds).*

*Mesuré dans un espace ouvert La portée du périphérique peut varier en fonction des murs et des structures.

B) Connectivité intermittente Tout périphérique électronique est sujet à des interférences de fréquence radio
provenant de sources externes.

Pour réduire ces interférences, suivez ces instructions :

• Vérifiez les sources possibles d’interférences de fréquence radio et repositionnez ces périphériques.

• Repositionnez ou réduisez la distance séparant votre transmetteur des haut-parleurs.

• Tenez vos haut-parleurs à l’écart des larges surfaces métalliques.
