Wireless Speakers/Receivers:

All Eos Base Stations, Wireless Speakers and Receivers have the same ID setting. This is done so Speakers/Receivers will automatically link with any Base Station. The Base Station will link with the rst 4 Wireless Speakers that it detects.

The LED indicators on the Base Station (labeled as, “digital wireless speakers”) indicate the number of Wireless Speakers/Receivers linked to your Base Station.

Linking Wireless Speakers/Receivers to a Specic Base Station:

Due to the incredible range of the Eos system, it is possible for your speakers to receive audio from a neighbors system. If this happens, or if you wish to run more than one Eos Wireless System in you house, you can give your Base Station Speakers/Receivers a unique ID. In giving your system a unique ID your Speakers/Receivers will link only to the base that they are paired to.

Using Your Eos System

Setting a Unique ID:

To give your Base Station and Speakers/Receivers a Unique ID do the following:

1. Disconnect the power supply from the Base Station

2. Using the Volume Control Switch, turn o all power to the Wireless Speakers/Re ceivers that you wish to link.

3. Reconnect the power supply to the Base Station

4. Press and hold the “LINK” button on the rear of the Base Station for all four “Wireless Speaker Link LEDs” on the Base Station start blinking and then release button.

Note: all four “Wireless Speaker Link LEDs” on the Base Station will blink while in “Link

Mode”

5. Turn on the Wireless Speakers/Receivers that you wish to link to this Base Station within 60 seconds of pressing the “LINK” button.

Note: to link additional speakers once a unique ID has been set, refer to the “Adding a

Speaker to a System with a Unique ID” section below.

Adding a Speaker to a System with a Unique ID:

Once a unique ID is set on your Base Station, you will need to do the following to link additional speakers to your Base Station: Please note - this procedure is only necessary if you have set a unique ID for your Base Station.

1. Disconnect the power supply from the Base Station

2. Using the Volume Control Switch, turn power to the Wireless Speakers/Receivers that you wish to link.

3 seconds until

3. Reconnect the power supply from the Base Station

4. Press and hold the “LINK” button on the rear of the Base Station for 8 seconds until only the rst “Wireless Speaker Link LED” on the Base Station starts blinking and then release button.

Note: When Link button is pressed and held, the “Wireless Speaker Link LEDs” on the

Base Station will blink slowly for a few seconds and then go to a fast blink (fast blinking indicates the Base Station is in “Add a Speaker Mode”)

5. Turn on the Wireless Speaker/Receivers that you wish to link to this Base Station one at a time within 60 seconds of pressing the “LINK” button.

Using Your Eos System

Resetting the ID to Default:

To reset the Base Station and Speaker/Receiver’s ID back to the factory default, do the following:

1. Disconnect the power supply from the Base Station

2. Using the Volume Control Switch, turn o all power to the Wireless Speakers/Receivers.

3. While pressing and holding the “LINK” button on the rear of the Base Station recon nect the power supply from the Base Station.

4. Release “LINK” button

Note: all four “Wireless Speaker Link LEDs” on the Base Station will blink while in “Reset Mode”

5. Turn on the Wireless Speakers/Receivers within 60 seconds of releasing the “LINK” button.

Note: Allow each Wireless Speaker/Receiver to Link before turning on the next Wireless Speaker/ Receiver. After completing steps 1-5, speakers will be set to the factory default ID and will be able to link with your Base Station or any other Base Station with the factory default ID in the vicinity.

Range Extender:

The Range Extender Switch, located on the back of the Base Station, allows you to increase the eective range of the Eos Wireless System. Use this button only if you are having diculty linking up your Wireless Speakers/Receivers.

About “Range Extender” - To maintain a solid, interference free link, the Eos system incorporates an advanced proprietary error correction scheme. Error correction is done by creating a slight delay between the transmitter and Wireless Speaker. Using this delay, Eos can conrm that the audio packets arrive at the Wireless Speaker/receiver. If the audio packet is not received, the Eos Base Station can resend it. Eos’ default delay (Range Extender O ) is 20ms.

Turning on the Range Extender Switch increases the delay to 64ms. The increased delay allows Eos to resend more audio packets due to distance from the transmitter or ambient interference.

Note: Due to the 64ms delay, if an Eos Base Station and Wireless Speaker are in the same room, a slight “echo” eect is apparent.

Using Your Eos System

Wireless Speaker Operation

The Wireless Speaker can be used as a wall-mounted speaker (power supply nested in the back of the speaker enclosure) or as a desktop/bookshelf speaker (power supply removed from the speaker enclosure.)

Powering Your Wireless Speaker:

1. Plug your Wireless Speaker into any wall outlet located no more than 150 feet from the Eos Base Station.

2. Turn the Volume Knob clockwise to power the Wireless Speaker.

Note: When power is applied to the Wireless Speaker, the blue Antenna LED will illuminate and ash. The blue Antenna LED will ash while the Wireless Speaker searches for the Base Station. Once the wireless link has been established, the blue Antenna LED will remain illuminated.

Antenna LED status:

Flashing - Wireless Speaker is searching for the Base Station

Solid - Wireless Speaker is linked with the Base Station

O - Wireless Speaker is powered o

1. Coil the cord around your hand.

2. Place the coil of cord in the bottom of the cavity.

3. Press lower edge of swivel plate to rotate forward

4. Insert the power supply into the cavity leaning forward.

5. Press down on the top of the power supply.

6. Rotate the power supply back to a vertical position (making sure to lock the tab at the top of the speaker cabinet with the groove at the top of the power supply.)

Using Your Eos System

Adding Additional Wireless Speakers/Receivers:

You can link up to 4 Wireless Speakers, placed up to 150 ft away from the Base Station. All Eos Base Stations, Wireless Speakers/Receivers leave the factory with the same ID setting. This is done so Speakers/Receivers will link with any Base Station right out of the box. A new Wireless Speaker will automatically link with your Base Station as soon as it is turned on.

The Base Station features 4 individual Wireless Speaker link LEDs (marked 1 to 4). The LEDs will illuminate, indicating the number of Wireless Speakers/Receivers linked to your Base Station.

Note: Due to the incredible range of the Eos system, it is possible for your speakers to receive audio from a neighbor’s system. If this happens, or if you wish to run more than one Eos system in your house, you can give your Base Station Speakers/Receivers a unique ID. With a unique ID set, your Speakers/Receivers will link only to the Base Station that they are paired to.

To set a unique ID for your Eos Wireless system, please see the section titled “Linking Wireless Speakers/Receivers to a Specic Base Station”

Antenna LED Indicator:

The Antenna on the Wireless Speaker is equipped with a blue LED that tells the status of the Wireless Speaker.

•

Solid LED = power on, linked with Base Station.

•

Blinking LED = power on, not linked with Base Station.

•

LED o = Wireless Speaker power o

Note: If the Antenna LED is blinking on the Wireless Speaker; make sure that the transmitter is activated on the Eos Base Station (blue LED on the Antenna of the Base Station) and/or the Wireless Speaker is not out of range of the Base Station.
