Wireless Connectivity

The transmitter base and speaker can communicate over

three wireless radio frequency (RF) channels. The default

setting is AUTO. You may also manually select one of the

three channels.

In AUTO, the transmitter base looks for and transmits

on the most interference-free of the three channels. The

speaker searches the channels until it ﬁnds the base.

It is possible that the speaker and base may lose their

synchronized connection from time to time. You may also

experience interference with the connection.

If you experience interference or lose the connection

between speaker and transmitter base, you can force the

M812 to re-synchronize. To do so, press and hold down

the STANDBY key on the transmitter base. After three

seconds, the LED to the left of the STANDBY key will

begin to ﬂash. Continue to hold down the STANDBY key

until the LED stops ﬂashing (about six seconds).

If you continue to experience interference, check to see

if you can eliminate the source by moving other devices

that use the same RF spectrum. For instance, laptop

computers that use 802.11 wireless networking can

conﬂict with your M812 wireless connection.

If problems persist, you can manually set the radio

frequency (RF) channel to channel 1, 2 or 3. To do so,

follow the instructions in Advanced Operations under the

heading Set RF Channels (page 8).

Listening To Your M812

Remote Control Operation

To control the M812, the remote control must be pointed

toward the front of the speaker. (In a multi-speaker

system, any speaker that is synchronized can control the

system.) The transmitter base does not have an IR sensor.

Commands are transmitted to the base from the speaker.

The M812 remote control uses two AAA-size batteries.

Power and Input Selection

To turn on the M812, press the STANDBY key on the

transmitter base or the POWER key on the side of the

speaker or the remote control. Select iPod, FM or AUX

by pressing the input selector on the speaker or using the

remote control.

iPod

With your iPod docked in the transmitter base, turn on

your iPod.

Press

on the remote to start playing the iPod. (You

can also press

on the iPod itself.)

To change the radio tuning, press

or on the remote

or the TUNE +/– keys on the speaker. Hold the key down

to make the tuner scan to the next strong signal. Press

the key repeatedly to manually adjust the tuning.

The M812 can store up to six of your favorite FM stations.

To PRESET a station, tune to the desired frequency, then

press and hold the desired PRESET key on the remote

until PRESET shows on the speaker display.

AUX

To play music from an auxiliary audio device, connect the

device to the transmitter base. Control music play back

using the controls on the auxiliary device.

Volume

There are two levels of volume control: local and master.

The range for local and master volume is 0 to 80.

Local volume affects only one speaker at a time. To adjust

local volume, use the + and – keys on the remote control

while pointing the remote control at the speaker that you

want to adjust. You can also adjust local volume using the

VOLUME keys located on the side panel of the speaker.

Master volume allows you to adjust all speakers in a

multi-speaker system from a single location. Master

volume can be adjusted using the MASTER VOL keys on

the remote control.

If you have a single-speaker system, you may use master

and local volume interchangeably.

Treble and Bass

To control treble or bass levels, press the TREBLE or

BASS keys on the remote control. The display on the

speaker will indicate the levels.

Reset

To reset your M812 settings, press and hold the POWER

key

on the side of the speaker for three seconds. See

the Advanced Operation section for more information on

the reset function.
