The SEREONIC WH-100 Wireless TV Headphones are designed to provide an enhanced audio experience for television viewing, allowing users to listen to TV audio privately without disturbing others. This system consists of a pair of over-ear headphones and a transmitter base, offering multiple connectivity options and user-friendly features.
Function Description:
The primary function of the SEREONIC WH-100 is to wirelessly transmit audio from a television or other audio sources to the headphones. The transmitter base connects to the TV's audio output, and the headphones receive the audio signal via UHF/RF technology. This allows for personal listening, which can be particularly beneficial for individuals with hearing impairments or those who prefer to listen at a different volume level than others in the room. The system supports both simultaneous TV and headphone audio (depending on the TV's capabilities and connection method) or headphone-only audio.

Usage Features:
The SEREONIC WH-100 offers versatile connectivity and ease of use:
- Multiple Connectivity Options:
- Optical Audio Output (Preferred Method): Connects via the provided optical cable to the TV's Toslink, Optical, or Digital Audio Output jack. This method allows sound to be heard through both the headphones and the TV simultaneously. Users are advised to remove the plastic cap from the optical cable before connecting.
- RCA Audio Out: Utilizes the included RCA converter cable and 3.5mm audio cable to connect to the TV's red and white RCA Audio Out jacks. Similar to optical, this method can allow sound through both headphones and TV. It's important to use output ports, not input ports, for RCA connections.
- Headphone Jack (AUX Port): Connects directly to the TV's headphone jack using the 3.5mm audio cable. When using this method, sound will typically only come through the headphones, and the TV's internal speakers will be muted.
- Coaxial Audio Out (Cable Not Included): For TVs or cable boxes with a coaxial audio output, users can purchase a coaxial cable separately to connect to the transmitter.
- Easy Setup: The manual provides a step-by-step guide for powering the transmitter, testing the headphones with a phone, and connecting to various TV audio ports.
- Headphone Controls: The headphones feature an ON/OFF/TUNE button and a Volume +/- Key for convenient control directly on the headset.
- Automatic Pairing: Once the transmitter is powered on and the headphones are turned on, they should automatically pair.
- Channel Selection: The transmitter has a channel switch (CH1, CH2, CH3) to help users find the clearest signal and avoid static interference. After changing the channel on the transmitter, the headphone's power button needs to be pressed once to reprogram it to the new channel.
- Volume Adjustment: Volume can be adjusted directly on the headphones. When connected via AUX cable, TV remote volume adjustment may also be necessary.
Maintenance Features:
- Charging:
- Docking Charging (Option 1): The headphones can be charged by placing them on the transmitter base. The transmitter's LED light flashes BLUE during charging and turns steady BLUE when fully charged. Users must ensure the charging port on the left side of the headphone aligns with the charging pin on the transmitter.
- Direct Cable Charging (Option 2): Alternatively, the headphones can be charged directly using the provided Micro USB charging cable. The headphones' GREEN LED light stays on during charging and turns off when fully charged.
- Troubleshooting Guide: The manual includes a comprehensive troubleshooting section to address common issues such as no audio, static interference, and charging problems. It advises checking power, cable connections, headphone charge, wireless range, TV mute status, and volume levels. For static, it suggests adjusting volume, moving closer to the transmitter, or changing the channel. For charging issues, it emphasizes proper alignment of charging pins and cleaning contact points.
- Customer Support: SEREONIC offers customer support via email (cs@sereneinnovations.com) for further assistance, especially for complex connection issues, and provides a one-year limited warranty.
