Troubleshooting
- 
Why is the DG80 not working I being recognized by my Computer? 
 • The DGBO should be recognized as a USB sound card/USB speaker w hen it’s plugged into a PC USB port. NO BLUETOOTH icon wi II appear on the Taskbar. The pairing/connectio n between the DGBO and your headpho nes/speaker has not hing ta do with you r PC.
 • After it’s plugged in, you can find the “Avantree DGBO” in Device manager and in t he
 Playback settings.
 • If you see an “unknown device” indicated in Device manager, please try using another computer to test.

- 
Why am I getting such poor sound quality in TALK mode? 
 Reason: In TALK mode, the sound is a MONO, 16kHz bit rate signal (most Bluetooth devices in the market use a lower BkHz bit rate signal). When in MUSIC mode, the sound switches to STERE0/48kHzbit rate signal.
 Solution: Only the FastStream (FS) codec supports both music and high- quality voice simultaneously. The DGBO supports FS and the simultaneous quality voice and music f eature if used with an FS compatible headphone (e.g. the Avantree Aria, AH6B, Audition or NB16).

Why is my microphone not working? 
 Reason: The DGBO asn’t een set to TALK mode
 Solutlon: After you’ve paired your device to DG80, DOUBLE CLICK the MFB to switch t he DG80to TALK MODE. During TALK mode the LED will double- flash BLUE every 2 seconds.
