Operation Instructions

How to Use
Headset Microphone:

Pairing Method
First, power off both the headset mic and the amplifier. Next, power up the headset mic, and long press the mic [M] button for 3s until its LED display shows a circle. Then, immediately power up the amplifier, and wait until the headset mic’s LED circle changes into a static number. Talk towards the mic to test if your voice is amplified and if the pairing is successful. If the amplifier is not powered on within 10s after the mic enters pairing mode, the mic will exit pairing mode and its LED circle will change back to a static number. No sound when talking to the headset mic means the pairing is not successful, please retry.

Changing Frequency
Make sure that the headset mic and the amplifier are already paired, then power up both devices at the same time. Press the mic [M] button to change the frequency, and the channel number on the headset LED display will flicker. Then, press or long-press the volume [+]/[-] button to cycle through frequency gradually/rapidly, and press [M] again to confirm frequency, or leave it auto- confirmed after 3s idleness.

Methods for using multiple devices simultaneously

  1. To use multiple devices at the same time, first reconnect them using the “Pairing Method” described above, then switch to different channels using the frequency-changing method.
  2. When using multiple devices at the same time, it is necessary to switch to different channels to avoid interference.

Bluetooth pairing
Upon first use, you need to connect this device to your phone or Bluetooth device, following the below steps:

  1. Power up the amplifier, press [M] to switch to Bluetooth mode, and start Bluetooth discovery and pairing, indicated by a flashing blue LED.
