USER MANUAL

Introduction

The WS100 speakers are built for listeners not network engineers. A wire-free connection to any computer - desktop or laptop, Mac or

PC - is performed via the supplied USB dongle transmitter, which congures automatically without the need for further software.

Each active speaker has been optimised to deliver the best audio experience possible from such a space-ecient system. Excellent

acoustic design is dovetailed with advanced wireless architecture to maintain a clear signal path from source to speaker, free of the

distortion that limits the enjoyment of music.

Acting on the output from a high quality integrated DAC in each speaker, an advanced DSP provides lter and correction algorithms

specically trimmed to match each driver’s response. The drivers are directly fed by individual, custom-tuned Class D hi- ampliers.

There are no losses and no phase errors in the signal path, ensuring that the full 60 watts of power from the system is used to maximum

eect.

A further crucial element in the WS100 chemistry is Monitor Audio’s use of SKAA™ wireless transmission. SKAA uses proprietary HPX

compression that delivers CD-quality sound comparable to uncompressed audio systems. Operating in the 2.4GHz band, it protects

the audio signal from other networks with a patented Walking Frequency Diversity™ (WFD) technology, which uses sophisticated and

seamless channel-hopping to eliminate clicks, pops and dropouts.

Built for peerless ease of use, the WS100 operates with plug and play simplicity. Power up the speakers with a single mains connection

and plug the SKAA transmitter dongle in the nearest USB connection on the PC/ Mac. When in range of the transmitter (up to 10 metres)

as many as four WS100 systems will receive the same source. Further dongles will send pristine high delity audio from up to four

sources to the same WS100 system.

The stylish WS100 remote, shaped to t snugly in hand, will control power, play/pause, track up/down volume and input selection: the

3.5mm mini-jack input on the back of the WS100 will accept a wired connection from a MP3 player and other sound sources.

SetUp

The set up of the WS100’s is very straight forward and easy to do thanks to the SKAA wireless technology. Follow the simple steps below

to start enjoying outstanding quality music:

1. Place the speakers in the desired location.

2. With the computer turned on (and logged in if necessary), insert the USB dongle into a spare USB socket on the PC/ Mac. The

computer will say that it is installing device drivers. Do not play any music until the computer says the drivers have been installed

and the device is ready to use.

3. Connect the right hand speaker to the mains and join the two speakers together by connecting the umbilical lead from the left

speaker into the right.

4. When the LED on the front is illuminated red, press either of the volume buttons or the p button on the remote. The white LED should

start to ash and the SKAA (rear) LED should be faint amber. If it is green, press either the g button on the remote, or both volume

buttons simultaniously on the right hand speaker.

5. When the transmitter and receiver have found each other, the LED on the front should be solid white and the LED on the rear will be

bright amber.

6. Start up your preferred media player and start enjoying your music.

If you run into any issues when setting up, please see the FAQ’s and Trouble Shooting Guide in this manual.

UsingtheWS100

After 30 minutes of continuous music playback the dongle will be automatically added to the receiver’s (speaker’s) Green List (see

below). The SKAA LED on the back will turn bright green to indicate this. The WS100 can store up to 4.

Alternatively, press the SKAA Button on the rear of the right hand speaker for 3 seconds, release it and the transmitter that is currently

being used will be added to the Green List.

If no audio is played for 150 seconds the USB dongle will go into power save mode and will stay in this state until audio playback is

resumed. The LED on the front will ash white and the SKAA LED on the rear will be faint amber or green. These indicators show that the

speakers are not bonded to a transmitter.

If no audio is played for 15 minutes, the whole system will go into stand by mode (red LED on the front) and will need to be turned on

again when playback is due to be resumed by pressing one of the volume buttons or the p button on the remote.

Cluster

A “Cluster” of WS100 receivers (speakers) can be created. When a cluster is created (please see the table below), the volume and SKAA

buttons will only work on the Master WS100 and this will control the volume and functions of all speakers within the Cluster.

Up to 4 pairs of WS100 can be used to create a cluster.

GreenList

The WS100 speaker (receiver) has the ability to store up to 4 dierent USB dongles (transmitters). This is a useful feature when owning

more than one USB dongle which can be purchased separately. The transmitters are stored in a “Green List” within the receiver. These

can be toggled, searched for, stored and deleted by pressing the “SKAA Button” on the rear of the right hand speaker. The functions and

SKAA LED indicator colours are listed in the table below.

Standby

The WS100’s can be put into stand-by mode by pressing the p button on the remote or by pressing the volume + button and the volume

- button simultaneously and hold for 3 seconds on the right hand speaker.

They will also enter stand-by mode when the PC is turned o or no music is played for 15 minutes.

When in stand-by mode, the red LED on the front will illuminate. Cluster

AuxiliaryInput

The WS100 has the ability to connect an auxiliary device (MP3 player, etc) via the 3.5mm jack socket on the rear of the right hand

speaker. This is indicated with the i symbol on the back of the right hand speaker.

This input can be toggled by pressing g on the remote or by pressing the volume + and - buttons simultaneously on the right hand

speaker.

A green LED will be illuminated on the front when this input is active.

FAQ’s

How do I know where

a certain USB Dongle

is on the Green List?

Every time a transmitter (USB Dongle) is added, it is automatically assigned the rst open spot on the Green

List — so, if there are already two transmitters on the Green List, the next one added will become transmitter

#3. Whenever the SKAA button is pressed (once), the receiver hunts through the Green List much like a car

radio hunts for radio stations when you press “seek”. When the Green LED ashes once, the receiver is looking

for Green List transmitter #1. When the Green LED ashes twice, it’s looking for transmitter #2, and so on.

The receiver looks for each transmitter for about 3 seconds and then moves on to the next one if it doesn’t

nd it.

How do I choose a

specic transmitter?

(eg. Transmitter #3

on the Green List)

Press the SKAA button once and watch for the LED to ash 3 times. The receiver will stop and play audio from

any Green List transmitter it nds. If it stops on a transmitter that’s not #3, press the button again. Repeat

until transmitter #3 is reached. If transmitter #3 is present and active, the receiver will stop and play music

from it.

Even if transmitter #3 is not present, it can still be told to wait for it to become active. In this case, do

the procedure above, and when you see the LED ash 3 times, press the SKAA Button again — this tells the

receiver to stop hunting through the Green List. Pressing the SKAA Button toggles between hunting through

the whole Green List and holding for one specic transmitter.

How to I delete a

transmitter from my

Green List?

To delete transmitter #3 (for example) from your Green List, rstly, set your receiver to listen for transmitter

#3 (see How do I choose a specic transmitter? above). Once the receiver is looking for #3, hold down the

SKAA Button for six seconds. When released the LED will ash Red, signalling that transmitter #3 is deleted.

Note that the Green List then also collapses to close the gap — so transmitter #4 becomes #3.

What is the Master

receiver?

When a Cluster is created, there is a single Master receiver and all of the other receivers in the Cluster follow

its behaviour. The Master has a working SKAA Button and you can control the entire Cluster with that one

button.

How do I “uncluster”

several receivers?

Carry out the “Make a Cluster of Receivers” procedure once for each receiver, omitting step 3. This will give

each of the receivers a functioning SKAA Button, and each of them will thereafter operate independently.

What are some tips

for making Clusters?

Each step in the Make a Cluster of receivers procedure has a 10 second time limit. For example, when you see

the Master’s LED start to ash, you have up to 10 seconds to power on the next receiver. When that receiver’s

LED starts ashing, you have 10 more seconds to power on the next one, and so on.

Why does only one

SKAA Button in the

cluster of receivers

work?

If you’ve made a Cluster from several receivers, the rst one to be powered on in the Make a Cluster of

receivers procedure is the Master of the Cluster. Only the Master’s SKAA Button will be functional because a

Cluster uses just one Green List.

To enable the SKAA button again, the receiver needs to be removed from the Cluster. Carry out the steps

above.

TroubleShooting

ISSUE SYMPTOM POSSIBLE SOLUTION

There is no sound

coming from the WS100

speakers when using the

USB Dongle.

What colour is the

LED on the front?

If it is red, the speakers need turning on by pressing one of the volume

buttons or pressing the p on the remote.

If it was previously white and is now red, then the speakers may have gone

into stand by mode because no audio has been played for 30 minutes.

Restart the audio and turn the speakers back on.

If it is green, then the auxiliary input is selected. Press both volume

buttons simultaneously or the g button on the remote to toggle inputs

between the Aux and USB. The LED will go white when connected to the

USB input.

If the LED is white, then is the music playing on the PC? Try a dierent

source/ track.

If it ashing, see the help topics below.

Is the LED on the

front ashing white?

If it is, then it is hunting for the USB dongle. If you have already stored the

dongle in the green list (LED on the back should be green) then press the

button once to toggle other possible green listed dongles.

If the above step didn’t work or the LED on the back is orange, press the

button on the back twice to hunt for transmitters. If this works, press and

hold the button for 3 seconds to store the dongle

Is the WS100 the

default device for

music playback?

For windows PC’s, go to Start > Control Panel > Sounds (Windows 7) or

Sounds and Audio Devices (Windows XP & Vista), and check that the “SKAA

Transmitter” is the device that is selected to playback the audio.

For Mac’s, go to System Preferences > Sound and check that the “SKAA

Transmitter” is the device that is selected to playback the audio.

Has the media player

paused playback

If the speakers have been turned o or entered power save mode, the

media player may have automatically paused play back.

There is no sound

coming from the WS100

when wanting to use the

auxiliary input

What colour is the

LED on the front?

If it is white, then the USB input is selected. Press both volume buttons

simultaneously or the g button on the remote to toggle inputs between

the USB and Aux. The LED will go green when connected to the Aux input.

If it is green, is there music playing on the auxiliary device? The volume

level of the auxiliary device needs to be set high in order to get sound at an

adequate level from the speakers.

The White LED on the

front ashes constantly.

Is the USB dongle in

the PC?

If it isn’t, it needs to be plugged into a working USB socket on the computer.

If it is, try a dierent USB socket. Also check that it is the default audio device.

Is music playing?

The dongle has a power save function. If no music is transmitted for

longer than 2.5 minutes, then it goes into stand by. The LED on the back of

the speakers will be either faint green (if the transmitter is on the green

list) or faint orange (if the transmitter hasn’t been added to the green list yet).

What intensity is the

LED on the back

If it is faint orange or green, then it hasn’t made connection with the USB dongle.

Check the dongle is connected to the computer or try a dierent USB

socket. Try removing the power from the rear of the right speaker, leaving

them for a short period and then reconnect.

The WS100 is non

responsive.

It does not respond

to remote or volume

buttons.

Remove the power from the back of the right hand speaker, leave for 30

seconds and then reconnect.
