within a 30-meter range (approx. 100 feet) is nearby
whose radio frequency transmission signals jam with
your iBall’s signals.
To eliminate signal jamming, follow the procedures below
to set the RF mating function between the speaker and
transmitter dock.
NOTE The entire RF mating process must be completed
within 20 seconds in order for the speaker and transmitter
dock to function properly, otherwise the process has
likely timed out and will need to be restarted.
1. Disconnect all secondary audio sources or video
output devices from the transmitter dock although
you may choose to leave the iPod docked onto the
transmitter dock.
2. Leave the AC adapter connected to the transmitter
dock. If the adapter is not plugged in, connect it to
the transmitter dock.
3. Designate the speaker to start the RF mating
process. Plug in the speaker’s AC adapter if batteries
are not used.
4. Power on the speaker and from its control panel,
press and hold both the and buttons for
3 seconds.
5. Press the RF mating button located at the bottom
of the transmitter dock.
Once RF mating is successfully completed, the LCD
backlight lights up with status icons appearing that
indicate whether the iPod is docked onto the transmitter
dock.
If iPod is not docked, appears.
If iPod is docked, appears.

process.
1. Use a red-white-yellow audio cable and connect the
red-white connectors to the line-in jacks of the output
device. The yellow (composite video) connector
does not need to be connected.
2. Plug the other end of the cable (stereo connector)
to the transmitter dock line-out jack.
3. Use an S-Video cable and plug each end to the
respective video output device and transmitter dock
S-Video jacks.
4. From the iPod with color display, choose whether
to view photos individually or as a slideshow and if
the TV comes with speakers, select music to
playback. The iPod with color display play / pause
track and previous / next track or photo functions
are adjusted directly from the player itself.
NOTE Controlling iPod functions from the iPod itself
during a video connection does not influence what is
shown on the speaker’s LCD.
TIP Under both video connection scenarios, the speaker
can remain powered on and iPod music will playback.
But if the speaker is operating on batteries, turn off the
speaker to conserve power.
RECOGNIZING WIRELESS SIGNALS
The iBall speaker and transmitter dock is manufactured
preset to automatically recognize each other wirelessly
during operation through a process called “RF mating”.
However, there are certain occasions when signal
jamming can occur, for example when a second iBall
