Tips and Troubleshooting

Pairing

To connect the Original Wireless Receiver to a Jelly Beamer or Big Beamer Transmitter, follow the steps below:

  1. Insert new batteries into the Transmitter and Original Receiver.
  2. Turn ON both the Transmitter and Original Receiver
  3. Enter pairing mode by pressing and holding the Test button on the Original Receiver for about 5 seconds or until the LED turns green.
  4. Press the switch on top of the Transmitter to link it to the receiver. Please note that you may repeat this step for additional transmitters (up to 8 transmitters can be paired to a single receiver).
  5. Exit pairing mode by pressing the pairing button on the Original Receiver once.

Batteries

We recommend always using regular, alkaline batteries to avoid any issues with your device. If your device is not working correctly, it may be due to one of two battery issues:

  1. Low or Depleted Batteries: The batteries in your device may need to be replaced.
  2. Battery Type Issues: If you’re using rechargeable batteries or batteries labeled “Heavy Duty,” “Industrial Grade,” or “ProCell,” these types may cause the device to behave as if the batteries are low or dead. These battery types manage power differently than regular alkaline batteries, so we do not recommend using them with this product.

How to resolve:

  • Replace the batteries with new, regular alkaline batteries.
  • Make sure the replacement batteries are fresh and recently purchased. Batteries that you used in other devices or leftile may not provide enough power to operate your. unused for a wh device properly
