Troubleshooting

Gong does not sound when the transmitter is activated

Check that the transmitter and gong are within range. Ensure both units are properly powered and paired. If using multiple transmitters, verify that the correct ringtone is set for the active transmitter. Try re-pairing the devices according to the manual.

Intermittent signal or weak performance

Obstructions like thick walls or metal objects can interfere with the wireless signal. Try repositioning the transmitter or gong to a more central or less obstructed location. Check for potential interference from other wireless devices operating on similar frequencies.

Flash signal is not working

Ensure the flash signal feature is enabled in the settings (refer to the manual). Check that the light bulb or LED component within the gong is not burnt out or damaged.

Unable to set individual ringtones for multiple transmitters

Ensure that each transmitter is successfully paired with the gong and that the pairing process correctly registers each unique transmitter. Consult the manual for the specific procedure for assigning ringtones to different paired transmitters.
