Connecting to a TV

Step 1: Connect the transmitter dock to a power source using the power cable we provided.

The transmitter dock will automatically power on, and the LED indicator labeled "TRANSMIT" on the front of the transmitter dock will start flashing GREEN.

Step 2: Turn on the neck-loop receiver by sliding its power switch to "ON" position.

The LED indicator on the receiver will start flashing GREEN. Give it a few seconds, it'll automatically connect with the transmitter dock. The same LED indicator will turn SOLID GREEN once they've successfully connected.

Step 3: Plug the earphones into the neck-loop receiver.

Step 4: Connecting to TV.

The HT380 supports Digital Optical, Auxiliary (3.5mm,) RCA (RED/WHITE.) Please check and see which one your TV supports; any ONE of the three will work. If your TV does not support any of the three, please go with Option D - External Microphone.

• 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" port on the back of your TV.
  • 
  • Plug the other end of the cable into the Optical Port on the back of the transmitter dock.
  • 
  • Go to your TV's SOUND settings, make sure that the AUDIO OUTPUT has been set to "EXTERNAL SPEAKER." Some TVs automatically complete this step for you, some don't.
  • 
  • Also in your TV's SOUND settings, make sure that the AUDIO FORMAT has been set to "PCM." Some TVs automatically complete this step for you, some don't.
  • 
• Option B - Auxiliary (3.5mm)
  • Take the 3.5mm Auxiliary Cable that we provided in the box, and plug one end of it into the "HEADSET" or "3.5mm AUDIO OUT" port on the back of your TV.
  • 
  • Plug the other end of the cable into the AUX Port on the back of the transmitter dock.
  • 
  • Go to your TV's SOUND settings, make sure that the AUDIO OUTPUT has been set to "HEADSET." Some TVs automatically complete this step for you, some don't.
  • 
• Option C - RCA (RED / WHITE)
  • Please note that ONLY the ones that are labeled "AUDIO OUT" can be used; the other ones won't work.
  • Plug one end of the RCA (RED/WHITE) adapter cable into the RCA AUDIO OUT port on the back of your TV.
  • 
  • Take the AUX (3.5mm) cable and plug one end of it into the BLACK end of the RCA (Red/White) adapter cable. Plug the other end of the AUX (3.5mm) cable into the AUX port on the back of your transmitter dock.
  • 
  • Go to your TV's SOUND settings, make sure that the AUDIO OUTPUT has been set to "EXTERNAL SPEAKER." Some TVs automatically complete this step for you, some don't.
  • 
• Option D - External Microphone
  • Please ONLY use this option as a last resort; the sound quality produced by this option is not nearly as good as the other three.
  • Take the AUX (3.5mm) cable and plug one end into the microphone cable.
  • 
  • Plug the other end of the AUX (3.5mm) cable into the AUX port on the transmitter dock.
  • 
  • Place the microphone end close to the TV's built-in speaker. You may utilize the microphone case if applicable.
