TROUBLESHOOTING

1. What FM frequency is available for transmitting in my area?

Try using the radio locator web site to find a vacant frequency. This web

site’s address is: http://www.radio-locator.com/cgi-bin/vacant

2. Why does the FM broadcast have a periodic ticking noise in it?

There may be interference from the BlueFlyers’ periodic Bluetooth scans.

Move the FM transmitter unit further away from the BlueFlyers’ Bluetooth

transmitter.

3. Why does the FM transmission sound quiet?

Be sure the input level control on the transmitter is turned up.

4. Why does the FM transmitter turn itself off?

The transmitter has an Auto-OFF feature. This is enabled by holding the

power button down for an extended period of time. Turning the unit off and

back on clears the auto shut-off.

5. Why does the Bluetooth signal from the unit seem weak?

Make sure that the base unit has a line-of-sight path to the location where

flyers will be received. Solid walls and objects will attenuate the Bluetooth

signal strength. Using the high powered transmitter, and possibly a stronger

antenna on the Bluetooth transmitter will increase the unit’s range.

6. Why can’t I receive a flyer or a specific type of file on my Bluetooth device?

Make sure Bluetooth is powered on. Some devices may automatically power

Bluetooth off.

On some cell phones, such as a Motorola, the phone must be put into

discoverable mode (“Find Me”) before the phone allows Bluetooth

connections.

Some cell phones will not accept certain file types or do not support all fields

in a virtual business card (vCard). This may result in a partial file set being

received on the phone.
