XP300 Transmitter 1 2 3 5 1 Power/Link LED: When the transmitter is powered on and communicating with the headset, this LED will be on solid. When the headset is turned off, the LED will turn off. A slowly pulsing LED indicates that the transmitter can't communicate with the headset. This could happen when the headset is out of range, turned off or not paired with the transmitter. (see pg 6) 2 Game Audio Input Jack Insert the 3.5mm end of the included RCA Splitter Cable into this jack. 3 Auxiliary Input Jack: Provides a 3.5mm input for digital music players or additional audio sources. (3.5mm cable sold separately) 4 Pairing Button: Press and hold to activate pairing mode. (See pg. 6) 4 Using the Transmitter Transmitter Range The transmitter sends game audio from your Xbox 360® to the headset via digital radio frequency (RF) signal, so a direct line of sight is not required. When you're out of range, you may hear popping or clicking sounds if the headset loses the RF signal. For best performance, place the transmitter in an open area that is unobstructed by objects that might absorb RF signals from the internal antenna. Avoid placing it on a metal surface, such as the top of a home theater A/V receiver. Optimum range: within 30 ft. Pairing the Headset and Transmitter The headset and transmitter in this package are "paired", which means they're synchronized to ensure they work together. When the headset and transmitter are communicating, the POWER LED on the the transmitter will be on solid. If this LED is slowly pulsing instead, it means the transmitter can't communicate with the headset. This could happen when the headset is out of range, not turned on or not paired with the transmitter. If the LED is slowly pulsing when the headset is on and within range, then they might need to be "paired" as described below: 2 feet Maintain a distance of at least 2 feet between the headset and transmitter when pairing. 1. M ake sure the headset and transmitter are turned off and they are at least 2 feet away from each other. 4. Wait for the headset and transmitter to pair. This process could take up to 30 seconds. 2. P ower on the transmitter by connecting it to a free USB port on your gaming console. Then press and hold the PAIR button on the transmitter. The transmitter LED will begin to flash rapidly, then release the PAIR button. 3. P ress and hold the headset POWER button for about 6 seconds until the LED begins to flash rapidly, then release the button. If pairing is successful, the LED on the transmitter should be on solid and the headset LED should be flashing about once per second, indicating that the units are paired. If pairing fails, repeat steps 1-4. It may take up to 5 attempts to pair successfully. NOTE: Only one headset can be paired with the transmitter. If you pair two headsets with the same transmitter, they'll interfere with each other as they compete for the transmitter RF signal. This will cause one headset to shut off. So don't try to pair two headsets with the same transmitter! 6
