Why wont my transmitter and receiver connect?
For first-time set up, your Nyrius product may take a short time to establish a connection. To minimize this, follow these steps when setting up the transmitter and receiver:
- Connect the HDMI cable to the TV – take note of the name of the port.
- Turn the TV on.
- Set the TV to the same HDMI port the cable is plugged into.
- Plug the receiver into a wall outlet using the power adapter.
- Once the receiver is powered on, connect the HDMI from the TV to the receiver.
- A searching animation should appear on screen.
- Connect the transmitter to the HDMI port on the video source. (Laptop, Cable Box, Gaming Console).
- Connect the USB cable from the transmitter to a powered USB port on the video source. For models with a power adapter, connect the adapter to a wall outlet.
- Once the power LEDs stay solid, they are paired and the image should appear momentarily.
WHAT IF THEY DON’T CONNECT?
- Ensure that the transmitter and receiver are within range of each other (varies by model), and within line of sight(varies by model).
- Walls and floors may reduce this distance.
- Wireless routers may cause interference while in use, ensure your transmitter and receiver are a minimum 6 feet away from wireless routers. To determine if a router is the source of interference, it may be necessary to disconnect it from power momentarily and test your Nyrius device.
- Wireless devices can be subject to interference, this can result in a loss of signal, or intermittent signal.
- To correct interference issues, pair the transmitter and receiver, or adjusting the placement of them. We have created a video to walk you through this process, found here: http://www.nyrius.com/videos
- Ensure that the transmitter and receiver have sufficient ventilation. Excess heat can cause connectivity issues.
