Initial Setup The FS-252 supports both active and passive speakers. If you are connecting active speakers (i.e. if your speakers use power cables), connect them to the output labeled "Line out". You have to connect FS-252 Right Speaker to FS-252 Left speaker by cable 6/18

Initial Setup Before attempting to use any buttons on the control plate, ensure that the power switch on the back of your FS-252 is flipped to the "On" position. Next, hold the Gear button for two seconds to power on the unit. Once the power LED is illuminated, click the Gear button to cycle through modes.

Same as AUX, but this mode rebroadcasts that AUX audio to up to 4 more speakers via SKAA! 7/18

Connecting a Bluetooth Source Cycle to Bluetooth mode by clicking the Gear button. When in Bluetooth mode, the Bluetooth LED will be illuminated. Enter pairing mode on the Bluetooth device you want to connect to the FS-252 and select the FS-252 from the discoverable devices list. This diagram represents the Bluetooth behavior of the FS-252 8/18

Connecting a Bluetooth Source Initialization Initialization begins when the user enters BT Mode or BT Relay Mode from any other mode, by clicking the Gear button. Initialization also begins if the user powers on the FS-252 in either BT Mode or BT Relay mode. Pairing List The Paired List contains up to eight of the most recent hosts which have successfully paired and connected with the FS-252. Button Clicking the button toggles between the Attempt Connection state and the Pairing state. From the Connected state, a two-second press and hold of the button will force the FS-252 to drop the connection to its currently connected device and enter the Pairing state. A ten-second press & hold of the button will clear the Paired List and enter the Paring state. Timeouts From Initialization, the FS-252 attempts to connect to the most recently connected host for ten seconds. After ten seconds, if a successful connection has not been established, the FS-252 will enter the Pairing state. If the connected host goes out of range, the FS-252 attempts to reconnect to that host for 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, if a successful connection has not been established, the FS-252 will enter the Pairing state. 9/18

Using your FS-252 SKAA Receiver The FS-252 can be used as an SKAA receiver when in SKAA mode. An SKAA receiver receives wireless audio from any SKAA transmitter. For a complete list of SKAA transmitters visit www.skaastore.com/products/ transmitters/ Ensure your SKAA transmitter is powered, and that your host device is playing audio. For example, if you are using a smart phone, make sure that your SKAA transmitter is plugged into your smart phone and that music is playing. Click the Gear button to cycle through modes. The SKAA Indicator LED will illuminate once you have entered SKAA mode. When in SKAA mode, your FS-252 should automatically begin playing the audio received over SKAA through the speakers you have connected. One SKAA transmitter can serve up to four SKAA receivers.

Using the Line-level Analog Audio Input Audio Source Connect your line level input to the input labeled "Line in" on the back of your FS-252. Click the Gear button to cycle to AUX mode. When in AUX mode, the yellow LED above AUX will illuminate. Make sure no cables are plugged into the AUX jack located on the back of the FS-252. audio signal from the Line in input on the back. Using the AUX Audio Input Click the Gear button to cycle to AUX mode. When in AUX mode, the yellow LED above AUX will illuminate. Plug your audio device into the AUX jack located on the back of the FS-252. 12/18

Using Several FS-252 Units Together in a SKAA Network Both Bluetooth and AUX modes come equipped with an optional Relay mode. When in either BT Relay or AUX Relay modes, the white Relay LED will be illuminated in addition to the Bluetooth or AUX LEDS. When in one of the Relay modes, your Bluetooth or AUX signal is relayed over SKAA to up to four more SKAA receivers.

In this case, make sure there is nothing plugged into the Audio Input jack on the back. 14/18

SKAA cmd SKAA cmd is an optional App available for iPhone, iPad, iPod, Android, Mac and PC. You can find it on our website www.skaa.com/tlc/ or in the iOS App store and Google Play. SKAA cmd is great for getting the most out of your FA-252. To use SKAA cmd, throw your FS-252 into SKAA mode, download the app, insert a SKAA transmitter and check out all of the customizable features of SKAA. SKAA cmd only works with five specific SKAA transmitters: Izabella, Diz, Ursula, Gemma and Cassandra. The FS-252 will not work with SKAA cmd unless you are using one of the supported transmitters. 15/18

SKAA Trouble Shooting Guide The purpose of this guide is to provide answers to frequently asked questions when using SKAA products for the first time. Note: SKAA provides a very simple, one-button, one-LED, interface. These two components are called, and will be referred to as, the Bond Button and the SKAA Indicator. At any time, when interacting with SKAA, the user may locate the Bond Button and rapidly click it six times to reset SKAA to its factory settings. In some cases, it can prove useful to factory-reset an SKAA receiver. If an SKAA transmitter is available and transmitting audio, the factory-reset automatically Bonds to the transmitter and resets the volume. Bond Button Icon Before proceeding with reading the following frequently asked questions and answers, please make sure that your SKAA devices are powered, in SKAA-mode (if applicable) and in range of one another (~20 m). 1. When I power on my SKAA speaker, the Indicator is dim green and when I play audio from my SKAA transmitter, no sound comes from the speaker. Most likely your SKAA speaker is hunting for one of your favorite transmitters. Simply press the Bond Button once, in order to switch to another favorite transmitter. If no other favorite transmitters are saved on the Green List, pressing the Bond Button once will not have an effect. In this case, double-click the Bond Button in order to put the speaker into Amber Mode. Amber Mode will explore for new, unknown transmitters in the area that are currently playing audio. If the issue persists, you can always factory reset the SKAA receiver by six-clicking the Bond Button. The SKAA Indicator will flicker red for one second and the speaker will return to Amber Mode. If six-clicking the Bond Button has no effect, see the next trouble-shooting item. 2. When I power on my SKAA speaker and attempt to play audio from a SKAA transmitter, I hear no sound, the Indicator is dim green and no matter how many times I click the Bond button, nothing changes. In this case, your SKAA speaker is a Slave speaker in a Cluster of speakers. This means that this speaker was probably sold with at least one other speaker, and one of these other speakers is the Master speaker. The Master speaker is responsible for controlling all Slave speakers. A Slave speaker will always follow the Master speaker. Some Slave speakers still contain a Bond Button in order to mute the speaker (this can be accomplished by triple-clicking the Bond Button). Any SKAA speaker with a Bond Button on it can be a stand-alone speaker, however it will have to be "unclustered" See the SKAA Receiver User’s Guide for the unclustering procedure. 17/18

SKAA Trouble Shooting Guide 3.What is the difference between Green Mode and Amber Mode and how do I use them? When you power on a SKAA speaker for the first time, it will be in Amber Mode. You can identify a speaker in Amber Mode by the behavior of its SKAA Indicator (if the SKAA Indicator is amber, the speaker is in Amber Mode). When in Amber Mode, the speaker will explore for new, unknown transmitters in the area that are currently playing audio. Once found, it will Bond to that transmitter, the SKAA Indicator will switch from dim amber to bright amber and the speaker will start playing audio. The speaker is now Bonded and in Amber Mode. Green Mode can be achieved after an SKAA speaker is Bonded and in Amber mode. Once a speaker is Bonded and in Amber Mode, simply hold down the Bond Button for three seconds. The SKAA Indicator will switch from bright amber to bright green. Now, the next time you power down your SKAA speaker(s) and transmitter(s) and power them back on again, the SKAA speaker(s) will be waiting for the transmitter on the Green List. When the transmitter becomes available, it will automatically Bond to it. SKAA speakers can store up to ten transmitters on a Green List. To cycle through transmitters on a Green List, simply click the Bond Button once to cycle to the next transmitter on the Green List. 4. How do I know which SKAA compatible receivers work with each other? All devices running SKAA OS 2.1 and newer are designed to work together seamlessly. These three lines should be single spaced, not double spaced. contact us via： support@skaa.com and we will help you. 18/18
