Connecting to an AV Receiver

While the HT280 CAN be used with most AV Receiver, please DO NOT PLUG THE HT280 INTO ANY OF THE RED / WHITE PORTS ON THE BACK OF A RECEIVER! This may permanently damage the product.

Step 1: Connect the transmitter to a power source using the power cable we provided, and flip the power switch to ON.

Step 2: Power up the headphones that came with the HT280 set by pressing & holding the power button on the headphones.

You'll see the RED LED light turn on. Give it a few seconds, it'll automatically connect with the transmitter tower. The same LED light will turn into SOLID YELLOW-GREEN once they've successfully connected.

Step 3: Connecting to AV Receiver.

There are 2 ways to connect the HT280 to your AV Receiver: DIGITAL OPTICAL OUT, or PHONES.

• Option A: Digital Optical
  • Take the Optical Cable that we provided in the box, and plug one end of it into the "Digital Audio Out" or "Optical Out" port on the back of your AV Receiver.
  • 
  • Plug the other end of the cable into the Optical Port on the back of your transmitter tower.
  • 
  • Slide the OPT / AUDIO switch on the transmitter tower to "OPT" position.
  • 
• Option B - PHONES (Usually on the front of the AV Receiver)
  • Take the 3.5mm Auxiliary Cable that we provided in the box, and plug one end of it into the PHONES Port on your AV Receiver. You'll need to use a 6.35mm to 3.5mm converter here.
  • 
  • Plug the other end of the cable into the BLACK end of the RCA-AUX Converter Cable.
  • Then plug the RED/WHITE end of the Converter Cable into the RED/WHITE ports on the back of the transmitter tower.
  • 
  • Slide the OPT / AUDIO switch on the transmitter tower to "AUDIO" position.
  •
