There is no need for an expansion room remote control.
Use the remote that came with the tuner/receiver in the room where it is connected to the
transmitter.

receiver in the other room.
To control non-Bose or older Bose products in the expansion room:

®
system in the main room.

Check the indicators and settings
Before you use the audio link, you may want to check some of the indicators and settings
that make your expansion products work together smoothly.
The Status LED
On the connection panel of both the transmitter and the receiver, the Status LED indicates
how the two units are communicating, as shown in the table below.
On the receiver, a blinking or solid orange light indicates a communications problem. Reposi-
tioning the transmitter or receiver, or both, may resolve the problem and cause both LEDs to
change to solid green. For further information, refer to “Troubleshooting” on page 10.
