X42 Transmitter 12 34 5 6 PAIR SURROUND ANGLES SURROUND ON/ OFF 7 8 9 1 Digital Input LED: This LED turns on when a digital input signal is detected. When this LED is ON, the analog input is turned off. 2 Surround Sound LED: The LED will light whenever the digital input is being processed by the surround sound decoder. 3 Dolby Digital LED: The LED will light whenever a Dolby Digital encoded signal is detected on the digital input. 4 Power/Link LED: The LED is on solid when the transmitter is communicating with the headset. A slowly pulsing LED indicates that the transmitter can't communicate with the headset. This could happen when the headset is turned off, out of range or not paired with the transmitter. (see pgs. 3-4) 5 Digital Input and Output: Connect the digital input to the XBOX 360 digital output using the included digital optical cable. The digital input is passed through to the digital output so you can connect the X42 transmitter and your home theater system to hear the XBOX sound on the headset and speakers at the same time. When a digital signal is detected by the optical input, the Digital Input LED will be lit. 6 Analog Input Jack: Provides a 3.5mm input for digital music players or additional audio sources. (3.5mm cable sold separately) NOTE: The analog input is deactivated whenever a digital input is active, so both the digital and analog inputs cannot be used at the same time. 7 Pair Button: Press and hold to activate pairing mode. (See pg. 4) 8 Surround Sound Angles Button: Press to select different HRTF surround angles. (See pg. 11) 9 Surround Sound On/Off Button: Pressing this button toggles between surround sound and stereo sound. When surround sound is active, the Surround Sound LED will be lit.
