Chapter 3
Basic Operation
Overview
The VE819 can be operated wirelessly and conveniently to connect your
HDMI device to a HDMI display. Transmitters can be managed by using the
OSD via the remote control to pair additional transmitters, modify transmitter
names, switch between transmitters and remove paired transmitters.
Transmitter and Receiver Link
This section explains how to use your receiver and transmitter. When they are
both powered on they can automatically locate each other without installing
any other software.
After powering on the Transmitter and Receiver, the panel LEDs blink to
indicate that the two units are establishing a connection. This takes around 15
to 20 seconds. The LEDs light a steady blue when the connection is established
and the VE819 devices are ready for use. If all operations are normal, the LED
lights on both should be st atic (not blinking).
If the LEDs continue to blink after 80 seconds, check the distance between
the T ransmitter and Receiver. The minimum distance between T ransmitter
and Receiver is 2 m (6 ft.) while the maximum distance between both
Transmitter and Receiver is 10 m (33 ft.).
Distance, quality and signal may vary depending on the environment; solid
structures, such as steel, concrete and brick may result to shorter distance
coverage or complete loss of signal.

a) If the link has not been established after 80 seconds, it is likely the
connection was lost or the transm itt er is out of range. You may have to
verify the range and adjust or shorten the distance between the
transmitter and receiver.
b) If there is no video being displayed and th e “Format not supported”
icon appears, it is an indication that the video frame rate from the
computer is not supported. If this is the case, refer to page 26 to switch
to a supported video timing setting.
c) If you have more than one transmitter paired to the receiver, all devices
need to be at least 6.5 feet away from one another. If the transmitter and
the receiver exist in the same room, the suggested distance between the
two is a minimum of 6.5 feet.

Troubleshooting
Operation problems can be due to a variety of causes. The first step in solving
them is to make sure that all cables are securely attached and seated completely
in their sockets.
Problem Resolution
The Power LED does not
light up.
Check that the power adapters of the Transmitter /
Receiver are properly plugged into a functioning power
outlet.
No video shows on the
HDMI display.
Check that the cables from the input source devices to
the Transmitter are correct and properly attached.
Ensure that the display is set to receive HDMI signals.
Verify the status of Power LED, as follows:
Power LED blinking (blue):
– Check that the distance between the Transmitter
and Receiver does not exceed 100 feet.
– Move the Transmitter closer to the Receiver.
Power LED lights solid + Source LED blinking
slowly (blue)
– Ensure that the video resolution and frame rate
selected are supported. See Supported Video and
Audio Formats, page 23 for more details.
– Connect the source device to your display to
check the video format compatibility.
– Check if the video resolution on your HDMI
display is set to 1080p, 1080i, 720p, 576p, or 480p
resolution. Refer to Supported Video and Audio
Formats, page 23.
Power LED lights solid + Source LED blinking

to 1080p, 1080i, 720p, 576p, or 480p resolution. Refer to
Supported Video and Audio Formats, page 23.
Check that the distance between the Transmitter and
Receiver does not exceed 100 feet.
Solid structures (walls, panels, beams) between the
Transmitter and Receiver can affect signal quality. Con-
sider installing the units with the least amount of barriers
between them.
No audio Check your display’s volume is not set to Mute.
Check your input source device’s audio volume has
been enabled. Adjust the volume accordingly.
Ensure the bit rate of audio from the source device is
supported (refer to page 23).
IR Remote Control
cannot control input
source device.
Check where is IR sensor is located on the input source
device. Make sure that the IR Blaster Extender Sensor is
close aligned to the input source device’s IR sensor.
Change the IR Blaster Extender frequency to meet the
input source device’s requirement.
No 3D video output Check that the connected HDMI displays on the Trans-
mitter and Receiver can support 3D video format.
Turn off 2D HDTV mode on your HDMI display (that sup-
ports 3D video format) and reboot the display. Set the
input source device to 3D video format output for the 3D
display.
Check the video output setting of the input source device
(ex. Blu-ray Disc, PS3..etc.) supports 3D video format.
Ensure the 3D format timing from the input source
device is supported (refer to page 23).
