Using the Encrypted
Transmission Function
This receiver is capable of receiving scrambled signals
from Sony digital wireless transmitters. This function
prevents hacking of the signal.
To use this function, select one of the following encrypted
transmission modes:
Secure key modes (SECURE KEY / AES256): A
secure key is automatically generated by the transmitter
and used by both the transmitter and receiver in these one-
to-one encrypted transmission modes.
The SECURE KEY mode is compatible with first and
second generation DWX-series devices.
The AES256 mode uses AES 256-bit encryption for a
higher level of security in transmissions.
Password mode: You choose a password of up to eight
characters that can be set for multiple transmitters and
receivers. This enables encrypted transmission to be
conducted within a group.
• Make sure the same mode is set on the transmitter and
receiver.
• When using an encryption key method, pair the
transmitter and receiver.
Using the Secure Key Modes
(SECURE
KEY/AES256)
Use these modes for one-to-one encrypted transmission
between one transmitter and one receiver.
An encryption key that cannot be read from the outside is
automatically generated by the transmitter. This key is
transmitted to the receiver through the wireless remote
control function, enabling encrypted transmission to take
place.
The encryption key used by the transmitter and receiver is
newly generated for each key transmission, resulting in
highly secure communication.
The encryption key used between the transmitter and the
receiver is saved when the power is turned off, so the
encrypted transmission can be resumed the next time the
power is turned on.
1
Preparing the transmitter
Set SECURE KEY or AES256 on the transmitter that
will transfer the encryption key.
For details on transmitter operations, refer to the
operating instructions supplied with the transmitter.
2
Preparing the receiver (this unit)
1
In the RECEIVER menu, rotate the jog dial to
move the cursor to ENCRYPTION indication,
and then press the dial.
2
Rotate the jog dial to select SECURE KEY or
AES256, and then press the dial.
If the transmitter does not support AES256 mode,
select SECURE KEY.
For details on the transmitter’s encrypted
transmission function, refer to the transmitter’s
operating instructions.
3
Exchanging the encryption key
The receiver searches for a transmitter that it has been
paired with.
After the receiver detects the transmitter, the
transmitter exchanges the encryption key with the
receiver and encrypted transmission begins.
When the RF REMOTE function is off, encryption
key exchange cannot be carried out.
Using Password Mode
(PASSWORD)
Set this mode when multiple transmitters are paired with
multiple receivers for encrypted transmission.
If the transmitters and receivers are set with the same
user-designated password, the audio signal can be
decoded. This mode is useful when multiple transmitters
and receivers are used as a single group, or when the
audio signal from one transmitter is received by multiple
receivers at the same time.
1
In the RECEIVER menu, rotate the jog dial to move
the cursor to ENCRYPTION indication, and then
press the dial.
2
Rotate the jog dial to select PASSWORD, and then
press the dial.
3
Enter a password of up to 8 characters on the receiver.
Rotate the jog dial to move the cursor to select the
character that you want to enter. And then, press the
dial to add the selected character to the end of the
current password.
To delete the last character in the current
password
Rotate the jog dial to select BS, and then press the
dial.
Note that the adding or deleting a character in the
middle of the password cannot be done.
To cancel entering the password
Rotate the jog dial to select CANCEL, and then press
the dial.
