Using the RX-1U

Volume adjustment
Adjust the volume control initially to a low volume to protect your ears. The volume increases when you turn the dial in the direction of »5« and it decreases when you turn the dial in the direction of »0«.

Switching on and off
Place the receiver on your ears. The receiver switches on automatically when the speaker’s arms are expanded. The receiver is switched off automatically when taking it off.

Reception
A reception will start as soon as the device is switched on. The blue indicator LED will blink twice every second during an active connection with a Xepton transmitter. The indicator LED will begin to blink if there is no active connection.

Connecting to a Xepton transmitter
Switch a Xepton transmitter (TX-1, TRX-1, T-1, or RP-1) on. The transmitter should be set to MASTER-priority (except TX-1, which is MASTER by default). To make sure that the RX-1U connects to the transmission of the intended transmitter, the receiver should be in close proximity to this transmitter. Place the RX-1U on your ears and use a pointed object to press the internal CONNECT button for 2 seconds. The LED blinks in fast succession and the receiver will now connect with the transmitter. When switching the receiver off and on again, the receiver will automatically connect to the previously connected transmitter, given that its channel-group number has not been changed since then. If the channel group number of the respective transmitter has changed, the receiver needs to be reconnected by means of the CONNECT button, as described above.

Power supply/recharge
The device is equipped with a rechargeable lithium-polymer battery of 3,7 V / 280 mAh. Place the RX-1U in the charging dock of the respective charger (single charger, charging case DC-10/1). The red charging status LED is lit during recharge. The LED switches off when the battery is fully loaded. English 14
