Establishing communication The sender and receiver packaged together with the RF-RBKIT were pre-joined so they will communicate with each other right out of the box. So if this is your first Rocketboost enabled product you can skip this step and go to the next section, Using your wireless sender and receiver step. If you need to rejoin the sender and receiver, and this is your only Rocketboost enabled product, then use the following steps. 1 Set the HUB STATUS switch on the wireless sender to ENABLE if this is your first 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 joining mode. The power indicator starts blinking rapidly and the unit will stay in joining mode for 30 seconds. 3 Press and hold the on the wireless receiver for more than three seconds so the sender and receiver enter joining mode. • The power indicator lights steadily if the joining was successful. • The power indicator blinks slowly if the joining was not successful. If you already have other Rocketboost devices you need to join both the sender and the receiver to your existing hub device. See the User Guide for detailed instructions on how to do this. Using you wireless sender and 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 sender and receiver. See the Establishing communication step 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 or B button on the wireless sender to turn on the source from the A or B inputs, depending on which input you want to listen to. The LED around the source button turns on to show that the source is enabled. 4 Adjust the audio level on the wireless receiver. If you have multiple audio sources in your Rocketboost network, press the SOURCE button on the wireless receiver to hear the next audio source. Press the SOURCE button again to cycle through all available audio sources. 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 senders and sender/receivers. If this is your first 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 (powersaving) mode, but must stay plugged in. © 2010 BBY Solutions, Inc., All Rights Reserved.
