Hooking up the Audio/Video Receiver
1. Connect a set of audio/video cables to the A/V OUT jacks of your
Audio/Video Receiver. Connect the other end to your TV.
2. Plug the Audio/Video Receiver’s Power Supply into a 120 volt wall
outlet and plug its jack into the Audio/Video Receiver.
3. Position the Audio/Video Receiver in a convenient location such as on
top of your TV and orient the antenna so that the fl at side points in the
direction of the room where you set up the Audio/Video Sender.
If your second TV is already
hooked up to a Satellite Receiver or
other A/V device:
If your Satellite Receiver or other A/V
component is connected to the TV using
A/V cables, you can connect the Audio/
Video Receiver to the free LINE IN
jacks on the component.

The Wireless Audio/Video Sender usually works best with the fl at faces
of the antennas on the Sender and Receiver units facing each other, see
diagram below. Sometimes, however, refl ections and other effects in your
home may affect the signal so that some adjustment of either the Sender or
Receiver antenna might be necessary to get the best signal.
If you are not getting any sound or picture at all from the Receiver:
• Check that both the Sender’s and Receiver’s power supplies are plugged
in.
• Check that the ON/OFF switch on the Sender and Receiver are ON.
If the video or sound is poor, or if there is interference:
Take a look at what the video signal is passing through or near to get to the
Receiver. Metal objects and electromagnetic fi elds can distort the signal. Try
to keep the Receiver as far away from other devices as the cables allow. In
most cases, relocating the Sender or Receiver a few feet is enough to avoid
the source of interference.
Try unplugging/turning off any electromagnetic interference producing
devices, such as a baby monitor, computer, wireless speakers, cordless phone,
etc. Other 900 MHz devices can distort the picture. If you are experiencing
interference between your X10 Video Sender and some other equipment that
uses 900 MHz, check the other device’s owner’s manual for the frequencies of
each channel that it uses. The X10 Video Sender uses 921MHz. We recommend
using a frequency on the other device that is farthest from 921MHz. Otherwise
you will need to discontinue use of the device while using the Video Sender.
