Russound BTC-2X Installation Guide
NAMING YOUR BTC-2X
A convenient feature of the BTC-2X is the ability to re-name it to a “friendly” name that makes it easier to access and
use in your home. The default name of the BTC-2X is “BTC-2X-ZZZZ” with “ZZZZ” being the last four digits of the
device’s MAC ID.
After installing your BTC-2X using one of the configuration options listed below, you can easily rename it to something
more convenient. For example, if you install the BTC-2X in your Living Room, you can rename it to “Living Room” so
that it is easier to identify on your phone or tablet’s list of available Bluetooth devices.
To rename your BTC-2X
1) Download and install the Russound BTC-2X Naming App from either the App Store or the Google Play Store.
2) With the BTC-2X powered up, within Bluetooth range, and already paired to your phone, open the BTC-2X
Naming App.
3) The app should automatically discover all Russound BTC-2X devices within range. You can refresh the
screen by swiping down in the app.
4) Once your BTC-2X is discovered, select it and tap “Connect”. Once connected, you can enter a new Blue-
tooth name and tap “Enter”.
5) Your BTC-2X has now been configured with the new name.
Note: Names can be up to 15 characters long and composed of any mix of letters from A-Z, Numbers 0-9 and the “-“
character. To avoid confusion, we recommend using a different name from all other Bluetooth devices in the home.
Audio Connections with the BSK-2 Kit
The BSK-2 Kit has two components, the BTC-2X Bluetooth Remote Transceiver and the BTC-2 Termination Box. The
BTC-2 should be located near your audio equipment and the BTC-2X in the area of the home where the Bluetooth
audio source is going to be used. A CAT-5 cable is used to connect the two. The CAT-5 cable carries data, power, and
the audio signal between the two.
