How To Install
Best Uses
Use the Alexa app to pair the Echo Dot to the BTX Bluetooth receiver. Use the Echo Dot’s built-in microphones to issue commands, but transfer the audio to your centrally located equipment.
Connect to a Whole House Audio System.
The Echo Dot becomes a source that you can control by voice (and within the Alexa app) and easily make available to other zones in the home.
Connect to Any Amplifier with ADS™ (Auto Detect and Switch).
When connected to the primary or Voice Assistant input, the audio from the Echo device is heard whenever you need it, even if you were already listening to a different source.

The blue LED blinks for around 3 minutes upon initial power-on, then turns off. A Bluetooth device can be paired during this period or anytime later, provided it’s not already paired to another device. Once paired, the LED stays lit. When unpaired, it blinks for around 3 minutes before turning off, but remains available for pairing.
