How do I sync multiple Solar Rock Multi-Syncs together?
- Connect your device to the primary speaker via Bluetooth using the directions above. Then, press the Sync button to enter Multi-Sync Mode on the primary speaker. The Bluetooth LED will be lit solid blue and the Sync LED will be lit solid green.
- Make sure the additional speaker(s) you would like to sync to the primary speaker is within range of the primary speaker, and power it on.
- Press the Sync button on the secondary speaker(s). The Sync LED will flash green to indicate the speaker is in Multi-Sync Mode. If the primary speaker is in range and also in Multi-Sync Mode, the speakers will then automatically link.
- Once linked, the Sync LED will be lit solid green on the secondary speaker(s) and the audio playing from the primary speaker will play from the synced speaker(s).
The Audio output is distorted. What is happening and how can I fix this?
You could be experiencing audio distortion due to a couple of reasons. Here are some helpful steps:
- Make sure that the device you have connected via Bluetooth has its volume set to 80% and then raise the volume on the speaker to your preference. Maximizing the volume on the device could distort the overall output.
- Try using a different device (for testing purposes) to see if you get the same behavior. We want to make sure it's not the Bluetooth chip on the device that is faulty.
