SETUP (Continued): PAIRING WITH BLUETOOTH HEADPHONES AND SPEAKERS Optional: Replace Paired Headphone Once the maximum of two connected headphones has been reached (as indicated by two solid blue lights on top of the Connect), additional headphones or other Bluetooth receivers can be paired in place of either of the connected headphones.
ADJUSTING THE VOLUME Volume can be individually adjusted on each headphone or speaker paired with the Connect using the built-in volume controls on the device. With some TVs and connection options, TV volume may be further raised or lowered to change the volume of all devices paired with the Connect. For best audio quality, volume should be maximized on the TV and adjusted on the headphone or speaker.
FACTORY RESET / CLEAR MEMORY The Connect can be reset by holding pairing button “A” on the right side of the unit for approximately 5 seconds until the blue indicator light begins to blink. The unit will enter pairing mode and previously paired devices will be cleared from memory.
TROUBLESHOOTING Issue: Connect will not turn on; Green power light doesn’t turn on or turns on and then off Make sure the Connect transmitter is plugged into a powered USB port or the internal battery has been charged. The green power indicator light on the rear of the unit will light up when the unit is turned on.

TROUBLESHOOTING (Continued) Issue: There is a delay (latency) in audio Bluetooth is a digital wireless signal and there is some latency expected due to the coding/decoding and compression/decompression steps that must occur. The aptX and aptX Low Latency audio codecs supported by the Connect are notable for having lower and much lower latency (smaller delay), respectively, compared to regular Bluetooth audio.
