TUNE THE RECEIVER

Step 1 : Turn the Tuning Control (J)

until Tuning Indicator (G) lights steadily.

Note:

If the Tuning Indicator flashes, try fine-tuning.  If the light still 
flashes, check the transmitter settings to make sure the signal 
is strong enough, as indicated by the steady flashing Audio Level 
Indicator on the transmitter.  As needed, adjust the transmitter.

MORE FINE-TUNING

If, after fine-tuning, interference in the form of static and/or "drop-outs"
can be heard, adjust Frequency Control (D) and re-tune receiver. (Step 3
above) If sound is distorted, slowly adjust the PC’s volume control to
compensate for a too-strong audio signal.  If you are unable to achieve
clear sound, please refer to "Troubleshooting,” pages 8 and 9.

CONNECT THE TRANSMITTER

Connect the Matrix transmitter as follows:

Step 1 : Power the Transmitter

1. Insert power cord from 12V AC Adapter 

(F) into the transmitter Power Input 
Jack (B).

2. Plug AC Adapter (F) into any standard 

wall outlet or surge protector.

Note:

There is no transmitter ON/OFF switch.  The transmitter is designed 
to be left plugged in and powered at all times.  When the Matrix is 
not in use for an extended period of time you may wish to unplug 
the AC Adapter.

Step 2 : Connect to an Audio Source

Option 1 – Connect to a Computer/Soundcard

1. Connect Y-Adapter’s (M) male miniplug to 

the audio/soundcard SPEAKER output (not 
the line out).

2. Connect Audio Input Cable (C) miniplug 

to one of the Y-Adapter’s (M) female 
outputs.

3. Connect the PC speakers to the other 

Y-Adapter’s (M) output.
