Setup Page 1 - Channel Select

In order for your TBP12 to transmit properly to your receiver both devices
must be set to the same channel. To change the channel your TBP12 is
transmitting on, Hold

SELECT for 2 seconds to enter setup page 1. Press

VALUE briefly to increment from CHANNEL 1 - 14. The current channel

number is displayed as 1 to 14 on the right side of the numeric display. The
actual change of transmission channel will not occur until returning to the
main page, by holding the

SELECT button for 2 seconds (to exit Setup

mode), or not pressing any button for 15 seconds (Setup page timeout).

Setup Page 2 - Power Select

TBP12 can run in two power modes, Hi (maximum performance) or

Lo (extended battery life). Hi is best for maximum range or hostile RF

environments. Use

Lo for longer battery life or situations where you want

to help confine the signal range. From the setup page 1, press

SELECT once

to access setup page 2. Press

VALUE to toggle between Hi and Lo power

mode. The factory default is set to

Hi.

Setup Page 3 - Name Select

From the setup page 2, press SELECT once to access setup page 4. Press

VALUE briefly to switch between name display being On or OFF, as

displayed on the right most digits of the numeric display. This parameter
determines if the Main page will show the channel number (
or a custom name (

digit spaces. Continue through these steps until you’ve customized your
TBP12 name. Pressing the

SELECT button when the last digit is selected

returns the display to main page.

Battery Installation / Removal

Open the side door to access the battery compartment. The inside of the
battery compartment door indicates the correct battery direction.

Lockout Mode

TBP12 comes from the factory unlocked. This allows you to make any
necessary adjustments for your initial setup.

Once you’ve completed saving your settings, press and hold both

VALUE

and

SELECT simultaneously for 2 seconds. This will enter the unit into

lockout mode and prevent the front panel controls from being able to
mute, change any settings or shut the TBP12 off accidentally. The LCD will
now show the

LOCK icon in the lower left corner. If either the POWER

or

SETUP buttons are pressed while in LOCK mode the LCD will flash

LOCKED across the screen.

To turn the TBP12 off when it is in lockout mode, press and hold both

VALUE and SELECT simultaneously for 2 seconds. Once unlocked, press

and hold the

POWER button for 2 seconds.

Make certain that TPB12 and receiver are receiving sufficient power. Check

Make certain that all connections and cables are in working order.

Switching between RF1 and RF2 Mode

The TBP12 with V2 or later firmware utilizes our latest digital wireless
transmission method, and is fully channel compatible with Relay G30,
Relay G50, Relay G90, XD-V35, XD-V55 and XD-V75 models that have

The TBP12 with V2 or later firmware utilizes our latest digital wireless
transmission method, and is fully channel compatible with Relay G30,
Relay G50, Relay G90, XD-V35, XD-V55 and XD-V75 models that have
Version 2 software running RF2 mode. Multiple units of any of these
models can be used together within the same location as long as each is on
a unique channel and no more than 14 are used simultaneously.

Updated Relay G50 and G90 receivers can also automatically receive
transmissions from the previous generation of Line 6 wireless products,
which include the XD-V30, XD-V70, and RelayTM G30, RelayTM G50,
and RelayTM G90 models with pre -version 2 firmware, now referred to as

RF1 mode. However, it is not recommended to mix usage of the RF1 and
RF2 modes within the same location due to the channel frequencies in
each system not being compatible.

If a TBP12 Transmitter with V2 or later firmware is being added to a setup
that already includes any devices running in RF1 mode, the V2 transmitters
can be setup to operate in RF1 mode if it is necessary to use the transmitters
with older Line 6 receivers. To set the TBP12 transmitters into the RF1
mode, enter Setup mode to display the current channel, then while holding
down the

SELECT button press and release the ON/MUTE button on the

THH12 or

VALUE button on the TBP12. The display will briefly show

(

RF1) or (RF2) to indicate whether it is operating in the old or new mode,

respectively. This setting is retained when powering off, so as a reminder
the display will also show this indication (

RF1 or RF2) each time power

is turned on.
