The BT-01 transceiver is sold separately or in an Audeara Bundle with the A-01 headphones, designed to connect up to 2 pairs of headphones to make watching television easier for the hard of hearing.
The transceiver accepts audio from the TV via an optical or analogue cable and transmits it to the headphones via Bluetooth signal.
To set up the transceiver, plug it into a power source with the Micro-USB cable, then connect it to your television with the AUX or optical cable.
Plug one end into the transceiver’s ‘audio in’ port and the other end into the ‘audio out’ port usually found on the back of the television. Using the optical cable is recommended for the best sound quality.
Flip the TX switch on the back of the transceiver to put it into transmit mode, then hold down the middle button on the left of the headphones for 3 seconds. The LED light should flash blue and red.
Hold the switch at the front of the transceiver towards the Bluetooth symbol until it also flashes. This means the devices are connecting – when the connection is stable, the LED lights will stop flashing and remain blue.
If you’re using an AUX cable to connect the transceiver to the television, the light on it will be green.
The Audeara transceiver is compatible with most televisions. There’s no pass-through function, so it must be plugged directly into the television.
You may need to adjust the TV settings to allow audio to play through two outputs. To personalise the audio experience, download the Audeara app on your smartphone and connect your Audeara headphones.
