Assembly
NOTICE
The wires for the AM and FM antennas are delicate. Handle them with care when
mounting them inside the speaker enclosure.
Recommended interior dimensions of speaker enclosure: 3%” x 3%” x 8″.
A hollow box-type structure is recommended.
The AM/FM Stereo Wireless Speaker Kit includes right and left speaker units
with connector wires and a control unit with two antenna wires. Each speaker
must be spaced no farther than 12″ away from the control unit to allow wire
connections to be made.
Each speaker unit requires a 24″ diameter hole in the enclosure, and the
control unit requires a 2% x 1″ diameter pill-shaped opening. The opening can
be made by using a Forstner bit to drill two 14″ holes spaced 14″ apart on
center and then cutting or chiseling away the remaining material in between.
- Determine where you want the speakers and the control unit to be and mark the locations for the holes.
- Using the Mounting Hole Template Shop Drawing (p.11) cut the 2A” x 1%” diameter pill-shaped opening for the control unit. You can use a coping or scroll saw to cut the full opening or use a drill with a Forstner bit (55985, sold separately) or hole saw to cut two 1%” diameter holes spaced 14″ apart on center and then cut or chisel away the remaining material in between. Fig. 1.
- Use a coping or scroll saw or a drill with a Forstner bit (56683, sold separately) or hole saw to cut two 24″ diameter holes for mounting the left and right speaker units.
- Test fit the left and right speaker units into their respective mounting holes. Then press fit or, if desired, epoxy them in place. Make sure you will have access to the color-coded wires/connectors. Be sure to wipe away any excess epoxy.
- Connect the wires from the left speaker unit to the control unit, pressing the white connector at the end of the set of wires into the white port on the back of the control unit.
- Connect the wires from the right speaker unit and attached battery to the control unit, pressing the blue connecter on the other set of wires into the blue port on the back of the control unit first and red connector on the other set of wires into the red port last. Fig. 2.
- Carefully remove the backing on the adhesive tape on the AM and FM antenna wires connected to the control unit.
- Fit one of the antenna wires as far as you can away from the speakers inside one end of the enclosure and press the adhesive on the module(s) against the underside of the top. Fig. 3 and 4.
- Fit the other antenna wire as far as you can away from the speakers inside the other end of the enclosure and press the adhesive on the module (s) against the underside of the top. Fig. 3 and 4.
- Push the wires inside the opening and press fit or epoxy the control unit into the mounting hole.
Connecting to Your Device
NOTICE The LED indicator light will be red while the battery is charging and go off when the battery is fully charged.
- Charge the speaker by plugging the small end of the included USB cord into the micro-USB port on the control unit and the other end into a power source.
- Once the battery is charged, disconnect the USB cord. Make sure Bluetooth connectivity is enabled on your device.
- Turn on the unit by pressing and holding theI button on the control unit for three seconds. The blue LED will blink.
- When you open your device, “My BT Speaker3” should appear onscreen. Select it and wait for the connection to be established. Once a connection is established, the blue LED on the control unit will light up, the display will show “BLUE,’ and you wll hear a tone.
