Connecting the transmitter to an audio source
You can connect the transmitter either to a digital or an analog
audio source (e.g. a TV and a stereo hi-fi system).
If you connect an audio source to both inputs (digital and analog),
only the analog audio source will be reproduced.
왘 Switch your audio sources off before connecting the transmitter.
왘 Check the connection possibilities of your audio source (audio
output, usually marked “OUT”).
왘 Select the corresponding connection cable and, if necessary, a
suitable adapter
왘 To connect the transmitter to your audio source, refer to the con-
nection diagram suitable for your audio source (see the follow-
ing chapters). Follow the color codings on the transmitter and on
the cables.
You can also refer to the beginner’s video guides on how to
connect your digital wireless headphone system to a TV:
