Instructions for Use

Power on/off

The Miccus Home RTX supports mini USB power. Connect one end of the included USB power cable to the Home RTX USB jack; connect the other end to a compatible USB power supply unit (5V/500mA), computer, or television USB port. Any USB charger that is rated at an output of 5V@500mA or higher is compatible and may be used with the Miccus Home RTX. The included USB cable with ferrite core is for USB power only and does not offer an audio connection.

For optimal performance, always use the provided USB cable with your Home RTX. Since the RTX is a long range device and may be susceptible to RF interference, the USB cable with ferrite core can help reduce potential interference during operation.
Note: Leave the Home RTX continuously powered on to automatically reconnect when the last paired device is within range. In order to maintain memory of the last paired device, the Home RTX must remain continuously connected to USB power.

Connecting Audio Cables

The Home RTX ships with the following audio cables

3.5mm (mini-plug) male to RCA (red and white) male
RCA (red and white) male to RCA (red and white) male

In TX mode the Home RTX requires an audio input source like a computer, tablet, Smartphone, television or stereo system, etc. that can offer the Home RTX an audio signal / music to transmit. In TX mode the cable being used must be connected to the appropriate input: either RCA (red and white) to the “TX Audio In” or 3.5mm to the “Line In”. Use the included cable that is best for your application.

In RX mode the Home RTX receives a wireless stream of music/audio from a transmitting device such as a Smartphone or tablet and connects to your home stereo or speaker system for music output. In RX mode the cable being used must be connected to the appropriate output: either RCA (red and white) to the “RX Audio Out” or 3.5mm (mini-plug) to the “Line Out”. Use the included cable that is best for your application.
