of the transmitter over a wide level of input signal.

• Mute function to suppress excessive noise when there

is no input signal.

3. What is included

In this set the following components are

included:

1. IR stereo transmitter

2. IR stereo headphone

3. AC/DC adaptor

4. HiFi audio cable

5. Instructions for use

Explanation of controls

On the IR stereo transmitter (see figure I)

1. IR transmitting LEDs, to transmit audio signal to IR

headphone.

2. DC input connector, to power the IR transmitter.

3. Power on/off switch.

4. Input 3.5 mm jack connector, for input of audio signal.

On the IR stereo headphone receiver (see
figure 2)

5. Power on/off switch.

6. Power on/off LED indicator.

7. Volume control.

8. IR sensors, to receive IR light from the transmitter.

6. Operation

1. Switch on the IR transmitter and place it at the same
height or slightly higher than the reception height of
the IR headphone.

2. Position the LEDs towards the listening area, ensuring

that there are no obstacles in between.

3. Switch the IR headphone on.

4. Set the volume control to maximum on the IR

headphone.

5. While listening to your IR headhone, adjust the
volume of the signal source to the headphone’s
maximum acceptable sound level.

6. Adjust volume control of the IR stereo headphone to a

transmitter at the same height, or slightly higher than
the reception height of the IR headphone.

3. High IR light content such as sunlight and bright
incandescent indoor lighting may degrade the audio
signal and cause interference. If you experience such
problems, simply move the system to a darker area.
