WHT24 Introduction NOTE: Check your system immediately. If it has been damaged in transit, re- port the damage immediately by calling your AR dealer. The WHT24 wireless speaker system consists of a transmitter and two receivers that provide two independent audio channels and a quality-of-service channel that guaran- tees interference-free, uncompressed, full CD quality sound.

Resetting the Channel Using the LINK Switch In the event there is another WHT24 in the vicinity, you can use the LINK switch to change the system address to avoid interference. Normally this is not necessary since the likelihood of another system being within radio range is rare. To determine the presence of another WHT24, perform the following steps: 1.
Page 55
WHT24 NOTE: If you inadvertently slide the LINK switch on the transmitter, don't worry; the link address will only be changed if you deliberately press the re- ceiver LINK button while the transmitter LED is blinking. The transmitter LED will simply stop flashing after a minute and nothing will have changed. page 13...
Page 56
Troubleshooting No Sound A properly connected system will take 5-10 seconds to link upon initial power-on. This is normal. If there is still no sound, follow the steps listed below. 1. Make sure the transmitter input device is connected to the transmitter correctly. 2.
Page 57
WHT24 In the highly unlikely event your neighbor was attempting to re-link at the same time, it is possible to link your system to his. Should this happen, or if you have any doubts, repeat the linking operation. Your system will generate a new, unique address each time it is linked.
