The EchoLink™ consists of two parts:
1. Transmier
2. Receiver
The transmier picks up sound from the TV and this sound is transmit-
ted to the receiver via infra-red signals. The transmier is mains
powered and connecon of the transmier to the TV can be via digital
opcal or analogue audio out, as the EchoLink™ is compable with both
methods.
The receiver amplifies the sound sent from the transmier and sends it
to the user via either headphones or a neckloop (with hearing aid on the
‘T’ seng). The receiver is powered by a rechargeable baery.

NOTE: Make sure the receiver is facing the transmier and that there is
a clean line of sight for the infra-red signal, with no obstrucon.
Setup

socket. Then plug the power lead into the transmier (3).
2. Place the EchoLink™ transmier on a shelf under or next to your TV
or fix to the side of your TV with the velcro pad. (To do this, remove the
stand by firmly pulling the transmier and stand apart).
