Broadcasting and Paired Modes 3
Broadcasting and Paired Modes
You need at least two E-MU PIPEline™ units to form a basic transmitter-
receiver group. With more units, you can configure more complex multiple
wireless groups as shown below.
By setting the Mode DIP switches located at the back of the unit, you can
configure it as a transmitter or receiver, and also set it to be used in either
broadcasting or paired mode.
Broadcasting can be used with any number of paired E-MU PIPEline™
receivers. It is usually used in a “one transmitter-to-many receivers” group.
Paired means that one transmitter is linked solely to one dedicated
receiver.

4 Analog and Digital Modes
Analog and Digital Modes
Your E-MU PIPEline™ can be configured to operate in either Analog or
Digital (S/PDIF 48 kHz) mode by setting the Mode DIP switches. Here are
some things to note when using digital mode:
For a transmitter in digital mode, ensure that the E-MU PIPEline™ is receiving
a 48 kHz external S/PDIF digital stream. Similarly, for an E-MU PIPEline™
configured as a receiver in digital mode, ensure that the attached external
equipment is capable of receiving a coax S/PDIF 48 kHz digital stream.
S/PDIF 48 kHz digital audio requires a specific 75-ohm coax digital RCA cable.
This cable can be connected to either one of the RCA jacks of the E-MU
PIPEline™.
The E-MU PIPEline™ only supports the 48 kHz sample rate when in digital
mode.
The E-MU PIPEline™ has no DTS or Dolby encoding or decoding capabilities,
but it does offer DTS pass-through.
The E-MU PIPEline™ cannot input or output digital and analog signals
simultaneously. However, a transmitter-receiver pair can have different digital/
analog settings depending on their attached source or destination device.

Setting Up Your E-MU PIPEline™ 5
Setting Up Your E-MU PIPEline™
You may find it easier to configure and pair your E-MU PIPEline™ units at
one location before placing each unit at its final location.
Step 1: Configure your E-MU PIPEline™ units
Set the Mode DIP switches for your transmitter and receiver(s). Refer to the
following table for the appropriate settings. This table can also be found on
the bottom of your E-MU PIPEline™ unit.
For a transmitter-receiver group, set the settings for DIP switches CH, B/P
and D/A. Then set switch R/T to configure the unit as a transmitter or
receiver. A group consists of at least one transmitter and one receiver.
For example, a transmitter to be used for broadcasting, using RF Channel 1,
streaming analog audio from an analog source should be set as follows:
NOTE
Flexi-Jacks will be either inputs or outputs depending on the
E-MU PIPEline™ transmit/receive mode setting. They can also be
either digital or analog depending on the mode setting.

Once your transmitter and receiver have been paired, they will be linked
automatically when turned on subsequently.
Step 5: Position your E-MU PIPEline™ units
Place the receiver up to 15 meters (approximately 49 feet) away from the
transmitter. You may place the units in different rooms but avoid placing
them near large metal surfaces and objects, or objects emitting radio
frequencies, for example, a radio, cordless phone or other Wi-Fi
®
access
points.
IMPORTANT
DO NOT press the Connect button repeatedly on your transmitter
or receiver before a pairing process is complete or else the units
may not be paired properly.

Using Your E-MU PIPEline™ 11
Using Your E-MU PIPEline™
Adjusting volume
When E-MU PIPEline™ is configured as a transmitter, the volume buttons
on the transmitter function as attenuation buttons. To decrease the volume
of the audio being streamed to the receiver, press the “+” button to increase
attenuation and thus reducing the volume of the audio being streamed.
The volume buttons function as normal for E-MU PIPEline™ receivers.
Charging your E-MU PIPEline™
The E-MU PIPEline™ uses a 1200mAh Li-ion rechargeable battery. When
the battery power is low, the Power LED flashes red and white alternately.
When the battery is charging and the unit is not powered on, the Power LED
lights up red. When the battery is fully charged, the Power LED is not lit.
There is no “low-battery” indication when the external power supply
adapter is being used. A depleted battery takes up to three hours to become
fully charged. When fully charged, it can operate for approximately five to
eight hours without being connected to the power adapter.
Returning to factory default settings
To return E-MU PIPEline™ to factory default settings, press and hold the
Connect button on the rear of the unit for five seconds. The E-MU LED
flashes for two seconds before lighting up again.
Returning to factory default settings will do the following:
Revert to the original volume setting,
“Unpair” a receiver.

Troubleshooting Wireless Features 13
Troubleshooting Wireless Features
There is no sound from my receiver.
Check that:
The signal source is working properly. If your transmitter is set to digital
mode, ensure that the source is set to stream 48 kHz S/PDIF.
The transmitter is connected to the power outlet and turned on, or that it
is sufficiently charged (if you are not using an external power supply).
The transmitter and receiver’s Mode DIP switches are configured
correctly:
Both are set to the same RF channel.
Both are set to the identical mode, either Broadcast of Paired mode.
Transmitter is set to transmit, and receiver set to receive.
See “Configure your E-MU PIPEline™ units” on page 5.
The receiver is connected to the power outlet and turned on, or that it is
sufficiently charged (if you are not using a power outlet).
The Link LEDs are green, and your units are paired. See “The Link LEDs
do not light up.” below.
The receiver volume is not muted. Press the Power/Mute button.
The receiver volume is turned up. Press the Volume Up button.
The output system is turned on and working properly.

14 Troubleshooting Wireless Features
Reposition your transmitter or receiver so that there are fewer objects
(for example, multiple walls or large metal structures) between them.
Make sure your transmitter and receiver are not placed on metal
surfaces.
Reset the wireless connection. Press and hold the receiver’s Connect
button for five seconds.
Disconnect the transmitter and receiver from the power source. Then
reconnect them again and reset the wireless connection.
Check that you have set the Mode DIP switches correctly for your

I need more battery-powered transmit time from my E-MU
Pipeline™ transmitter.
If your battery-powered E-MU PIPEline™ transmitter is running low on
power, simply swap it with your receiver (assuming it is plugged in) and
reverse the R/T DIP switch on each unit. The pairing should remain intact.
I have two transceivers which are configured as transmitters. My
receiver is receiving the incorrect transmission.
Check that you have set the same RF setting for both units in a transmitter-
receiver pair. See “Configure your E-MU PIPEline™ units” on page 5.
