Unplug the power cords immediately 
and contact your dealer.  

The Source LED

.  

 RX and TX are not 

successfully paired.  
 

 

Try the pairing procedures in 
Appendix 1 and Appendix 2 to re-
establish connections (pairing). 

 

If it does not resolve the problem, 
refer to Appendix 2 (PLC pairing) first 
and then Appendix 1 (system pairing). 

 TX and RX connectivity is 

not established due to bad 
electrical line quality or RX 
is not powered on.  

 

Make sure the RX is powered on.  

 

If  the  RX  is  powered  on,  proceed  to 
PLC pairing procedures. (Appendix 2). 

TX source LED 
indicators are flashing 
from right to left.  

 RX and TX are not paired 

successfully. 

 

Check  the  TV  attached  to  the  RX  to 
see  if  it  displays 

Not  paired,  please 

do  pairing

message.  If  so,  pair  the 

TX and RX. (Appendix 1). 

 Media source player is not 

powered on or is in standby 
mode

sending  a  video  format  supported  by 
the  system  such  as  1920X1080@60i, 
PCM  audio 

  see  Appendix  6  Video 

Specifications. 

 The distance between TX 

and RX is too far or the 
quality of the electrical 
power line is poor. 

 

 

Try changing to a different socket. 

 

Shorten the distance between the RX 
and  TX  (i.e.  move  them  to  different 
sockets located closer to each other).  

 

If  the  suggestions  above  do  not 
resolve  the  problem,  try  to  pair  the 
system. (Appendix 1).
