frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
-Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
-Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
-Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
-Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
To maintain compliance with FCC’s RF exposure guidelines, this equipment
should be installed and operated with a minimum distance between 20cm the
radiator of your body: Use only the supplied antenna.
The lightning symbol within a triangle means, “Electrical caution!” It
indicates the presence of information about operating voltage and potential
risks of electrical shock.
The exclamation point within a triangle means, “Caution!” Please read the
information next to all caution signs.
System Overview
NUX B-5RC guitar wireless system with automatic setup, 2.4 GHz interference-
free broadcasting frequency, and 24-bit 44.1 kHz high-quality audio
transmitting. The signal latency is super low and less than 5ms. The operation
range is 30 meters (90-feet). It’s a super lightweight wireless, mini-compact
design that fits all types of electric guitar, electric-acoustic guitar, bass
guitar, and ukulele.
Tested on 25 varieties of different instruments, body types, and brands. The user-friendly matching system makes it easier to use, just turn ON both wireless units and it will be paired within a couple of seconds. Each wireless set has a unique pairing algorithm, it automatically detects each other and configures their own IDs. The signal never interferes with any other wireless including the WIFI signal.
Recommended: Please stay 2 meters (6 feet) away from the WIFI router for the best performance.
NUX B-5RC comes with a powerful case to keep the wireless units charged. When
the power case is fully charged, it can re-charge the wireless units’ battery
2-3 times.
How to Operate
Matching a set of B-5RC is very easy as it is pre-paired from the factory.
Just turn on the transmitter and the receiver; they should detect each
other rapidly and automatically choose the best channel to establish a stable
connection.
- Push and hold the power button to turn on the transmitter and the receiver.
- Before the connection is established, the LED indicator indicates the battery level. Refer to the chart below for details.
- Green – Battery 100%≥Battery≥75%
- Yellow – Battery 75%>Battery≥50%
- Red – Battery 50%>Battery≥25%
- Red blinking for 10 times – Battery < 25% and the unit will turn off automatically to protect battery life.
A set of fully charged B-5RC can work for 4 hours. It requires 2.5 hours to
get the batteries fully charged. The LED indicator lights in red during
charging and the LED Indicator turns off when fully charged.
Once the connection is established, the LED indicator on both the transmitter
and the receiver lights in green. In case of a failed connection, both LEDs
flash in red, and you will need to establish the connection manually. (Ref to
Re-match ID & Pairing Manually for details.)
Connect the transmitter to the output of your instrument, and connect the
receiver to the input of the next device in your signal flow or an output
device, i.e. amplifier, guitar pedal, or mixer.
Plug the wireless system back into the power case for storage or recharge by the power case. Do remember to press the charging button on the power case to activate the charging function. The status LEDs on the power case indicates the battery level of the case. A fully charged power case can recharge the wireless system 2-3 times.
To recharge the power case, please make sure that your power adaptor has an
output of 5V and 1A(or above)
You can also charge the wireless system using the included micro-b USB Y
cable. Please note that B-5RC can not work during the charging process.
WARNING
The B-5RC power case can ONLY charge the NUX B-5RC. DO NOT plug in any other
wireless systems to the power case.
Re-Match ID & Pairing Manually
The IDs of the transmitter and the receiver of each B-5RC set have been
matched in the factory. For any reason you want to re-match IDs or pair a
receiver with a transmitter from different sets, follow these steps:
- Turn off the transmitter and the receiver.
- Press and hold their power buttons simultaneously for 8 seconds to enter ID match status.
- If it succeeds, the LEDs on both sides turn Green.
NUX offers various of 2.4GHz wireless systems, you can use up to 6 systems
simultaneously in one space. Please avoid using other wireless systems
together with NUX one, or there may be noise or interference issues.
Mute function
Under working status, press the power button of the transmitter to mute the
sound, and the receiver LED will turn RED. Press again to have sound again.
Function Introduction
Cable tone function
Under working status, press the power button of the receiver to activate the
Cabletone function, and the LED of the receiver will turn Orange. The
Cabletone function simulates the capacitor effect of a 6.4m (21 feet) cable.
Auto-Off function
If there is no signal for 10 minutes, the transmitter will turn off
automatically to save battery power. Since the transmitter is turned off, the
receiver will turn off after 10 more minutes.
Tips for Active Pickups
- If you are using active pickups, in order to reduce noise, it is suggested to keep more is the distance between the transmitter and the internal circuits of your guitar or bass.
- Active circuits generally use TRS output jacks, but different guitars can have different wirings to the ring and sleeve. Therefore, some guitars loaded with active pickups may not work with this type of transmitter. If this problem occurs, try to use a female to the male adaptor to convert the stereo plug of the transmitter to a mono plug, and then plug it into the guitar. See the picture below:
