Troubleshooting Tips
• If audio playback is noisy or stutters, you must set the source device's audio
sample rate to the correct setting. This setting is based on the length of the
connected Ethernet cable. Refer to the chart in installation step 7 for the
correct sample rate setting.
• If you hear no audio on an audio output device connected to the receiver via an
analog audio RCA cable, make sure the L/R OUT selector switch on the receiver
is set correctly. Refer to the chart in installation step 5 for the correct receiver
switch setting.
• If you hear no audio when connecting the transmitter via a Toslink cable, make
sure digital optical audio output is enabled on your source device.
• Use at least a Cat5E cable to connect the transmitter to the receiver.
