Using the Transmitter Transmitter Range The transmitter sends game audio from your Xbox 360® or PS3™ 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. When the transmitter and headset are communicating, the top LED on the front of the transmitter will be on. If this LED is slowly pulsing, it means the transmitter can't communicate with the headset. This could happen if the headset is turned off, out of range or needs to be "paired". Using Wired Headphones The transmitter can only communicate with one wireless headset, so two wireless headsets cannot be used with the same transmitter. The headphone jack on the front of the transmitter can be used to connect a set of wired headphones for listening to the Dolby Surround Sound game sound being transmitted to the wireless headset.* The volume control above the jack sets the volume of the wired headset and does not affect the volume of the wireless headset. Optimum range: within 20 ft. 9 *Since presets are governed by the XP500 headset, the presets do not apply to a second wired headset. 10
