Using the Transmitter
Transmitter Range
The transmitter sends game audio from your Xbox 360
®
to the headset via digital radio frequency (RF) signal, so a direct line of sight is not
required. When you’re out of range, you may hear popping or clicking sounds if the headset loses the RF signal. For best performance,
place the transmitter in an open area that is unobstructed by objects that might absorb RF signals from the internal antenna. Avoid placing
it on a metal surface, such as the top of a home theater A/V receiver.
Range up to 30 ft.
Dual-Band WiFi
The X42 uses advanced “Dual-Band WiFi” radio technology to help eliminate interference with additional wireless devices and WiFi
networks. The Dual-Band radio uses either 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz signals to transmit high fidelity digital audio and help eliminate interference
with other wireless devices. Unlike the RF technology used in most other wireless headsets, this Dual-Band WiFi radio technology coexists
with wireless networks for optimum performance.

Pairing the Headset and Transmitter
The headset and transmitter in this package are “paired”, which means they’re synchronized to ensure they work together. When the
headset and transmitter are communicating, the POWER LED on the front panel of the transmitter will be on solid. If this LED is instead
pulsing slowly, it means the transmitter can’t communicate with the headset. This could happen if the headset is turned off or out of
range. If the LED is pulsing slowly when the headset is on and within range, then they might need to be “paired”
as described below.
The headset and transmitter are paired out of the box, so the following instructions are necessary only if pairing appears to have been lost.

EFFECTS
2 feet
Maintain a distance of at least
2 feet between the headset and
transmitter when pairing.
1. Make sure the headset and transmitter are turned off and
they are at least 2 feet away from each other.
2. Power on the transmitter by connecting it to a free USB
port on your gaming console. Then press and hold the
PAIR button on the transmitter for about 5 seconds.
Release the PAIR button when the transmitter’s Power/
Link LED begins to flash rapidly (twice per second). NOTE:
If you hold the transmitter’s PAIR button for too long (over
20 seconds), the light will blink extremely quickly, and you
will need to start over from step 1.
3. Press and hold the headset Power button for about 6
seconds until you hear the second double beep, then
release the Power button. At this point, the headset LED
will flash rapidly (twice per second).
4. Wait for the headset and transmitter to pair. This process
could take up to 30 seconds.
If pairing is successful, the Power/Link LED on the
transmitter should be on solid and the headset LED should
be flashing about once per second, indicating that the units
are paired.
If pairing fails, repeat steps 1-4. It may take up to 5 attempts
to pair successfully.
NOTE: Only one headset can be paired with the transmitter. If you pair two headsets with the same transmitter, they’ll interfere with
each other as they compete for the transmitter RF signal. This will cause one headset to shut off. So don’t try to pair two headsets
with the same transmitter!

Setting up the transmitter as illustrated below lets you listen to your console or TV with the X42 headset. You can also hear your
console on your home theater speakers without disconnecting the optical cable from the transmitter.
Connecting the X42 transmitter digital output to your home theater system will pass your console’s game audio from the transmitter’s
digital input to the home theater A/V receiver digital input, so you can hear the game audio on your X42 headset and your surround
sound speakers at the same time. To hear the game audio only on the X42 headset, turn down or mute your speakers.

Chat Boost is a dynamic talkback expander built into the X42 headset that automatically increases chat volume during loud
moments in your game, so you can always hear your teammates or other players, regardless of the game volume.
Typically, if you turn up a headset’s game volume, the incoming chat level from other players could become difficult to hear
over the game sound. However, with Chat Boost, as the game audio increases, the chat volume also increases. When the game
volume quiets down again, Chat Boost automatically returns the chat level to your original volume setting.
To properly set the Chat Boost function:
1. Turn down the volume control on the headset so there’s no game audio.
2. Adjust the volume control on the Talkback Cable so you can hear the chat voices at a comfortable level.
3. Turn up the headset game volume and the chat volume will increase whenever the game gets louder, just as if the talkback
volume control is being automatically turned up along with the game level. Note that if the volume on the Talkback Cable
is set too loud, Chat Boost might increase the volume so much that the voices will distort. If that happens, turn down the
talkback volume on the Talkback Cable.

Troubleshooting
Safety Notice
No sound
• Check that the headset volume control is turned up.
• Check that the transmitter power and optical cables are properly connected.
• Check that the headset is powered on. The LED on the left ear cup should be ashing.
Check if the Power LED on the transmitter is on solid. If the LED is slowly pulsing, it indicates that the transmitter isn’t
communicating with the headset. If the headset is on solid and the transmitter LED is slowly pulsing, then the headset and
transmitter need to be “paired” as described in the section “Pairing the Headset and Transmitter” (see pg 4).
Audio Drops, Popping or Clicking Sounds
Audio dropouts, popping or clicking sounds on the headset are caused by poor reception. This can occur when:
The headset and transmitter are out of range. For best performance, move within 20 feet from the transmitter.
• There’s a wall or other large object between the headset and transmitter.
• The transmitter is in a bad location that is interfering with the antenna.
A wireless base station or wireless LAN are causing a lot of RF activity that’s blocking the RF signal from the transmitter. The
transmitter should be moved at least 5 feet away from a wireless router or gaming console.
Voice Chat Drops
Most in-game voice chat drops are simply caused by network performance or “lag”. Usually they subside after a few moments so
please be patient. In extreme cases, you may have to leave a game and return to reset the chat function.
If you use a wireless internet connection, low signal strength from your modem/router can make the voice chat malfunction.
A wired connection from your modem/router to your console is recommended for best results.
To avoid potential damage to the device, always disconnect all cables before transporting it.
WARNING: Permanent hearing damage can occur if a headset is used at high volumes for extended periods of time, so it is important
to keep the volume at a safe level. Over time, your ears adapt to loud volume levels, so a level that may not cause initial discomfort can
still damage your hearing. If you experience ringing in your ears after listening with the headset, it means the volume is set too loud.
The louder the volume is set, the less time it takes to affect your hearing. So, please take care to listen at moderate levels.
Before placing a headset on your ears, turn the volume down completely, then slowly increase it to a comfortable level.
• Turn down the volume if you can’t hear people speaking near you.
• Avoid turning up the volume to block out noisy surroundings.
