About the XP400 The Ear Force™ XP400 is a premium, Dolby surround sound headset designed for Xbox 360 ® and PS3 ™ gaming. To get the most from your XP400, please take a few minutes to review this introduction. XBOX 360 Mobile Phone via Bluetooth* Dolby Surround Sound The XP400 transmitter processes Dolby Digital surround sound from your Xbox 360 or PS3 and sends it to the headset via digital RF.

Xbox 360® Wired Chat Setup* (optional) PS3™ Chat Setup In cases where the XBA Bluetooth Chat Adapter cannot be used, such as with third-party controllers and the Xbox Chat Pad, an optional talkback cable is available for a wired chat connection between the headset and controller. When using the XP400 with a PS3, the Bluetooth® is used for Playstation® Network (PSN™ ) chat. Follow these instructions to pair the Bluetooth with your PS3 console. 1.
Home Theater Setup Connecting a Digital Music Player Setting up the transmitter as illustrated below lets you listen to your console or TV with the XP400 headset. You can also hear your console on your home theater speakers without disconnecting the optical cable from the transmitter. The XP400 features an analog input for connecting digital music players or other analog sources. The Analog Input volume can be adjusted directly from the digital music player or analog source.
Dolby® Digital Processing Surround Sound Angles The XP400 uses Dolby Digital 5.1 surround processing technology – the industry-standard format for encoding multi-channel game audio. Dolby Digital processing recreates 5.1 channel surround sound using the XP400 headset so you can hear the sound all around you, as if you were listening to a 5.1 speaker system. The XP400 allows you to alter the virtual positioning of the Front and Surround speakers for the best surround sound experience.
Using Bluetooth® The XP400 incorporates Dual Pairing Bluetooth technology that can be simultaneously paired to 2 Bluetooth enabled devices at once. This lets you communicate with Xbox LIVE™ and PSN™ chat and answer calls on a Bluetooth enabled mobile phone. If you’re not using either of these Bluetooth features, you should turn off the Bluetooth to conserve battery power. The XP400 will automatically remember the last 2 paired devices upon powering on.
Recharging the Headset Equalizer (EQ) Presets The XP400 features a rechargeable lithium polymer battery that provides more than 10 hours of continuous game play. When your headset battery power is low, a tone will begin to sound every 10 seconds until the headset powers off. You can recharge your headset while still gaming with the included Headset Charging Cable. Simply plug the mini USB end into your headset CHARGE port and plug the other end into a free USB port on your game console.
Chat Boost™ XP400 Headset Technical Specifications Chat Boost is a dynamic talkback expander built into the XP400 headset that automatically increases chat volume during loud moments in your game, so you can always hear your teammates or other players, regardless of the game volume. Typically, if you turn up a headset’s game volume, the incoming chat level from other players could become difficult to hear over the game sound.
Troubleshooting No sound • Check that the headset volume control is turned up. • Check that the transmitter USB power optical cables are properly connected. • Check that the headset is powered on. The LED on the left ear cup should be flashing. • Check if the LED on the front of the transmitter is on solid. If the LED is slowly pulsing, it indicates that the transmitter isn’t communicating with the headset.
