Pairing and Connecting AirFly Pro
Pairing and connecting your AirFly Pro is a simple process. Make sure your AirFly Pro is in pairing mode, indicated by a flashing light, and follow the steps outlined in the manual.
Pairing with AirPods/Wireless Headphones
To pair your AirFly Pro with AirPods or wireless headphones, begin by ensuring that your headphones are in Bluetooth Pairing Mode. Refer to your headphones’ owner’s manual for specific instructions on how to activate pairing mode, as this process can vary between different models and brands. Once your headphones are ready, turn on your AirFly Pro by sliding the power switch. The AirFly Pro will automatically enter Pairing Mode upon its first use, indicated by a flashing white and amber light. If you have previously paired devices and need to re-pair or reset the AirFly Pro, press and hold the reset button for approximately four seconds until the indicator light begins to flash white and amber again. This signifies that it is ready to pair with a new device. Next, bring your AirPods or wireless headphones close to the AirFly Pro. The devices should automatically detect each other and initiate the pairing process. During this time, keep both devices within a short distance of each other to ensure a stable connection. The initial pairing process may take up to 90 seconds, so be patient. Once successfully paired, the light on the AirFly Pro will turn solid white momentarily and then turn off after about 10 seconds, confirming a successful connection. The AirFly Pro will remember your AirPods or wireless headphones for future use, so you won’t have to repeat the pairing process every time. In the future, simply turn on both devices, and they should automatically reconnect to each other. If only one AirPod seems to be playing audio, turn the AirFly Pro off and then back on. This will re-sync the AirFly Pro and should reconnect both AirPods. Remember that the AirFly Pro does not support telephony. Watch the helpful quick start videos to guide you through pairing your AirFly Pro.
Connecting to Audio Sources
Connecting your AirFly Pro to various audio sources is a simple process that unlocks a world of wireless audio possibilities. Once your AirFly Pro is successfully paired with your preferred Bluetooth headphones or earbuds, you can connect it to a wide range of devices that feature a standard 3.5mm audio jack. To begin, locate the 3.5mm audio output on your desired audio source. This could be anything from an in-flight entertainment system on an airplane to a television in your home, gym equipment, a gaming console, or even a classic car stereo system. Insert one end of the AirFly Pro’s included 3.5mm audio cable into the headphone jack of the audio source. Then, take the other end of the audio cable and plug it into the corresponding 3.5mm input on your AirFly Pro. Ensure that both connections are secure to prevent any audio interruptions. Once the physical connection is established, power on your AirFly Pro and your paired Bluetooth headphones or earbuds. The AirFly Pro will automatically establish a wireless audio link between the audio source and your headphones, allowing you to enjoy high-quality audio without the hassle of tangled wires. For devices with AUX-IN ports, such as car stereos, you can use the AirFly Pro to wirelessly transmit audio from your smartphone or other Bluetooth-enabled devices. Simply plug the AirFly Pro into the AUX-IN port of your car stereo, pair your smartphone with the AirFly Pro, and start playing your favorite music or podcasts. The audio will be seamlessly transmitted from your phone to your car’s audio system. If you encounter any issues with audio playback, ensure that the volume on both the audio source and your headphones is turned up to an audible level. Additionally, double-check that the AirFly Pro is securely connected to both devices and that the Bluetooth connection between the AirFly Pro and your headphones is stable. The AirFly Pro also features volume control buttons, allowing you to adjust the audio level directly from the device. This can be particularly useful when the audio source lacks its own volume controls or when you want to fine-tune the sound to your personal preference.
Troubleshooting Common Issues
Experiencing problems with your AirFly Pro? Consult the manual for solutions to common issues. Issues like pairing difficulties and audio playback problems are addressed with clear steps.
Audio Playback Problems
If you encounter audio playback problems with your AirFly Pro, several troubleshooting steps can help resolve the issue. First, ensure that the AirFly Pro is fully charged and properly connected to both the audio source and your headphones or earbuds. A low battery can often lead to intermittent or distorted audio. Next, verify that the volume levels on all devices—the audio source, the AirFly Pro, and your headphones—are appropriately adjusted. Sometimes, the volume might be muted or set too low on one of these devices, causing a lack of sound.
If the volume levels are correct and you’re still experiencing issues, try turning the AirFly Pro off and then back on. This simple step can often resolve minor software glitches that may be affecting audio transmission. If only one AirPod or earbud seems to be playing audio, power cycling the AirFly Pro can also help resynchronize the connection and ensure that both earbuds receive the audio signal.
Another potential cause of audio problems is interference from other Bluetooth devices. Try moving away from other electronic devices that emit Bluetooth signals, such as smartphones, laptops, or other wireless headphones. These devices can sometimes interfere with the AirFly Pro’s Bluetooth connection, leading to audio dropouts or distortion.
If none of these steps resolve the issue, consult the AirFly Pro user manual for further troubleshooting tips. The manual provides detailed instructions and diagrams that can help you identify and fix more complex audio playback problems. Remember to also check for any firmware updates for your AirFly Pro, as these updates often include bug fixes and performance improvements that can enhance audio quality and stability.
