Establishing communication
The wireless sender and wireless receiver packaged together with the Wireless HD Audio Starter Kit
were pre-paired so they will communicate with each other right out of the box. If you need to re-pair
the wireless sender and wireless receiver, use the following steps, otherwise you may skip this section
and go to, Using your wireless sender and receiver.
1 Set the HUB STATUS switch on the wireless sender to ENABLE if this is your rst Rocketboost
product set.
• The power indicator turns green when the HUB STATUS switch is set to ENABLE.
• The power indicator turns blue when the HUB STATUS switch is set to DISABLE.
2 Press and hold on the wireless sender for more than three seconds to put it into pairing mode.
The power indicator starts blinking rapidly and the unit will stay in pairing mode for 30 seconds.
3 Press and hold on the wireless receiver for more than three seconds so the wireless sender and
wireless receiver enter pairing mode.
• The power indicator lights steadily if pairing was successful.
• The power indicator blinks slowly if pairing was not successful.
If you already have other Rocketboost devices, you need to pair both the wireless sender and wireless
receiver to your existing hub device. See your User Guide for detailed instructions on how to do this.
Using your wireless sender and wireless receiver
1 Turn on the wireless sender and wireless receiver. The power indicator LEDs should light steadily. If
they are blinking, you need to rejoin the wireless sender and wireless receiver. See the Establishing
communication above.
2 Turn on the audio source connected to the wireless sender. Make sure the volume of the audio
source is not muted, otherwise no audio will be sent over the Rocketboost network.
3 Press the SOURCE A button on the wireless sender to turn on the source to the A input. The LED
around the source button turns on to show that the source is enabled.
4 Adjust the audio level on the wireless receiver.
Rocketboost network notes:
Every Rocketboost network must contain
one hub device, which helps devices join
the network. The network can have only
one hub, which you can enable using the
hub switch on the back of all Rocketboost
wireless senders and wireless
sender/receivers. If this is your rst
Rocketboost product, you should make this
device the hub, if you already have
Rocketboost products, you should disable
hub mode on this device.
Important: Hub devices must always have
power for your network to operate. The hub
device can be in standby (power-saving)
mode, but must stay plugged in.
