Page 13: Connecting To Your Electronic Device
Connecting to your electronic device You can connect the transmitter to your electronic device with the TOSLINK cable or with the RCA cable. We recommend using the TOSLINK connection. Use the supplied cables and adapters. - Page 14 We recommend to connect either the TOSLINK input or the RCA input of the transmitter. If both inputs of the transmitter are used, the electronic device that is connected via TOSLINK cable has the higher priority and only the audio signal of this device will be streamed to your hearing instruments.
- Page 15 TOSLINK connection Before connecting the cable, remove the protection caps from the TOSLINK cable plugs. Plug the cable into the TOSLINK input of your transmitter and into the TOSLINK (optical audio) output of your electronic device. To prevent the TOSLINK cable from breaking, do not forcefully bend it.
- Page 16 Further information: ● Refer to the electronic device's manual: Set the output format of the electronic device to either PCM (pulse‑code modulation) or Dolby Digital*. ® ● The TOSLINK output of your transmitter may be used to connect further TOSLINK devices such as external Dolby decoders or surround sound systems.
- Page 17 RCA connection Plug the cable into the RCA connections of your transmitter. Plug the other side of the cable into the RCA output of the electronic device. Or via adapter into the SCART or mini jack output of the electronic device.
- Page 18 Further information: ● Without adapter: The RCA output of the electronic device is typically marked "L‑R AUDIO OUT" and found on the back or control panel. ● With SCART adapter: The audio signal can depend on the source selected on the electronic device. For example some TVs will only make TV sound available on the SCART output, but not the sound from a connected DVD player.
- Page 19 if the headphone output is used. So that sound is only heard through the hearing instruments. ● Refer to the electronic device's manual: Set the output format of the electronic device to analog audio or uncompressed audio.

Questions and answers
doesnot stream
The Signia StreamLine TV transmitter stops streaming when the iPhone goes to sleep. When the phone is reawakened, the Signia app reports that it is not connected and is streaming to a different device, even though no other Bluetooth device is connected. However, if Bluetooth is turned off on the iPhone, the sound starts transmitting again from the TV box to the hearing aids. This suggests that the issue may be related to how the iPhone manages Bluetooth connections when it enters sleep mode.

My streamer allows me to connect Bluetooth to my PC but it cuts out and then reconnects It is a great pity because the quality is great but the cut-outs make it completely useless
@Michael Benamin To add that this happens on 2 PCs
To fix Bluetooth connectivity issues with the Signia StreamLine TV that cause it to cut out and reconnect, try the following steps:
1. Eliminate Interference: Move the device to an area with fewer Bluetooth devices to reduce possible interference.
2. Re-pair Devices: Delete all existing Bluetooth pairings from the hearing aids, StreamLine TV, and the connected device (e.g., MacBook). Then re-pair them.
3. Check for Firmware Updates: Update the firmware of the StreamLine device and hearing aids, as this may resolve connectivity issues.
4. Reset Connections: Use a tool like Noahlink Wireless to reset and reconfigure all Bluetooth connections if available.
5. Consult Audiologist: If issues persist, take the device to an audiologist for inspection or repair.

Both light are blue not changing
why does my tv box go from red to blue and back to red
The Signia StreamLine TV box changes colors to indicate its status. It turns blue when pairing or paired with hearing aids. It turns red when both RCA and Toslink cables are connected at the same time, which is not a normal operating condition. If it stays red or the colors do not change as expected, it may indicate a malfunction or defective unit.

Second message, My tv unit was working fine but then it stopped
Your Signia StreamLine TV likely stopped working because your iPhone went to sleep, which interrupted the Bluetooth connection between the app and your hearing aids. When the phone wakes, the app may try to reconnect but fails, possibly due to confusion about which device it should stream to. Turning off Bluetooth on the iPhone temporarily restores the connection between the TV transmitter and the hearing aids, indicating a conflict with the phone's Bluetooth management.

Hi my signia streamline tv has stopped streaming to my right hand hearing aid (which works fine with my mobile phone) is there any sort of reset I can try or do I assume that the unit is now faulty regards Jim Lloyd
To reset your Signia StreamLine TV if it has stopped streaming to your right hearing aid, follow these steps:
1. Unplug the Signia StreamLine TV from power.
2. Plug it back in. The device should start blinking blue, indicating it is searching for hearing aids.
3. If your hearing aids use batteries, open and close the battery door. If they are rechargeable, restart them.
4. Place the hearing aids on top of the StreamLine TV to re-establish the connection.
This process should reset the connection and restore streaming to your right hearing aid.
