Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of the Rocketboost™ Wireless HD

Audio Starter Kit. This system represents the state of the art in 2.4 GHz

wireless audio design, and lets you enjoy your music around the

house or home theater surround sound without the limitations of

cables.

With a maximum 150-foot broadcast range, this powerful system

transmits through walls, floors, and ceilings. The audio signal is

uncompressed digital audio so your audio is the highest quality and

is free from interference.

RF-RBKIT_10-1157_MAN_V4.fm Page 3 Friday, October 8, 2010 12:53 PM

The system can be used with any of your audio components, like your

CD/DVD player, home theater system, or even audio output from a

computer or mp3 player. By using other Rocketboost™ wireless audio

products, you can also configure multiple audio streams and listen to

any of those audio streams at any Rocketboost receiver.

This User Guide explains how to correctly install, operate, and get the

best performance from your Rocketboost Wireless HD Audio Starter

Kit. Read this guide carefully before installing your system, and then

keep it handy for quick reference.

manufacturer's instructions.

8Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers,

stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

9Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type

plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A

grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The

wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the

provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for

replacement of the obsolete outlet.

10 Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at

plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the

apparatus.

11 Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.

12 Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long

periods of time.

13 Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required

when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as

power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects

have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or

moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

14 To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this device to

rain, moisture, dripping, or splashing, and no objects filled with liquids,

such as vases, shall be placed on it.

15 The wall plug is the disconnecting device. The plug must remain readily

operable.

16 Batteries should not be exposed to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire,

or the like.

Caution: Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the

same or equivalent type.

Warning: Read the Rating Label on the bottom of the unit for power input and other

safety information.

Caution - Proper Installation

Install the system in a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor too cold. The

appropriate temperature is between 5° C and 35° C.

Install the system in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent internal heat

from building up inside the unit.

• Rocketboost™ is uncompressed digital audio compatible with all audio

formats such as Dolby® TrueHD, and DTS-HD Master Audio used with

Blu-ray.

When you see the Rocketboost™ logo on any product,

it has been designed to work with other

Rocketboost™ products, no matter who manufactures

them.

How does Rocketboost™ work?

Rocketboost technology can connect all audio devices throughout

your home to form a home audio network.

Rocketboost products include “Senders,” which send or transmit

audio streams, and “Receivers,” which receive the audio. This lets you

listen to music from your Sender in other rooms using your Receiver.

Rocketboost is expandable. Each Rocketboost Receiver can select the

audio from any Sender in your Rocketboost audio network. The

following shows an example Rocketboost network. You can set up

your network to meet your specific needs.

We hope you enjoy your new Rocketboost system. Remember that

it’s designed to grow with your home entertainment needs, and that

it’s easy to add a new device to the network as you expand your

system.

Sender back panel

Note: When four-channel lock is enabled, other Rocketboost receivers in your

network are not able to select the audio source from the four channels. This is by

design, as most people would not want to listen to surround sound audio sources in

other rooms besides the home theater. If you want other receivers to select the four

channel audio source, disable the four-channel lock.

#Feature Description

1DC IN jack Plug the AC power adapter into this jack.

2 & 4 SPEAKER IN A/B

system. Connect these inputs to your audio source's speaker out jacks just like you

would connect passive speakers.

3Pre-in A/B jack
