Let's run through some basic check marks to ensure we didn't miss anything while setting up your device.

1. Your Citation device is turned on
2. Check the password you have entered, and re-enter it again (typos can happen).
3. Make sure your mobile device has the initial support needed:
   1. Android 4.4 OS and higher
   2. Apple iOS 10 OS and higher
   3. The latest version of Google Home app
4. Your phone needs Bluetooth to be on 
5. Enable Location Service (Android only)
6. Plus you need to permit Google Home app to access your location on the phone (Android only).

The basic check is done, and we are now moving into your Wireless network setup.

1. Try moving your speaker closer to the Wireless network router 
2. Have you previously connected the speaker to your WiFi network?  If yes, look below or move to "Troubleshooting"
   1. Did you recently make any changes to your network, such as buying a new router, adding an extender, or maybe changed settings?

   2. Maybe your ISP (Internet Service Provider) did some changes, possibly even updating your Wireless router software.

If you still are experiencing issues connecting the device to your Wireless network, let's do some further troubleshooting.

Troubleshooting

1. Your WiFi router might need a reboot, unplug power for 1 minute and connect power again.
   1. While you are rebooting your WiFi router, we advise doing the same for your speaker. Simply disconnect power and reconnect power again.
   2. In case rebooting the speaker didn't work, let's try resetting your speaker by pressing the Reset Button for 5 seconds (Front LED will light up).
2. Go ahead with the setup again (remember to open Google Home app )
3. Reboot your mobile device

WiFi Network Troubleshooting

• Check your WiFi router settings. Be sure that UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) is enabled.
• Change Wireless channels on your WiFi router on 2.4G or 5G..
  • Avoid using other channels on 2.4G other than 1, 6 and 11. The rest are a NO-GO.
  • Keep a maximum of 8 devices in total on 2.4G (that is including our speakers).
  • Move products to WiFi 5G band, if they support it, to reduce the stress factor on the 2.4G band
• Check your WiFi router to see if there is a MAC address limitation.
  • MAC address limitation is when your router is set/fixed to a maximum of 20 devices (or whatever it may have been configured for).
  • When you want to add the 21st device your router will deny access because you have filled up the 20 devices.
  • You need to clear or delete old devices that are not in use anymore. This may require someone with technical knowledge.
  • We advise that you don't have any MAC address limitations at all.
• Avoid bad extenders (Cheap ones are often not powerful enough to deal with or handle the kind of data required to transmit high quality audio).
  • With extenders, the connection between "router and extender" is decreased by 50%.  That said, your data will be even slower,. having to processes it while the speed is decreased.

There are more things you can do to optimize your WiFi router, but these above are the most common issues happening in users homes.

Citation speakers support 802.11g, 802.11n, and 802.11ac standards on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. We recommend using 5 GHz if available, as this will give you more stable performance and use the full power of your wireless audio. Contact our customer support to get in touch with an expert that can help you with your Wi-Fi network. We are here to help!

10 minutes before the time limit has been reached, a voice prompt will be played on the headphones. When reaching the time limit, the volume will be muted, and a new voice prompt will inform that the listening limit has been reached.

Getting started with the checklist

• A JBL LINK device(s).
• Latest version of the Google Home app installed on your mobile device.
• Latest version of the Google app  (Android only) installed on your mobile device.
• A Google Account (you can create one online via Google).
• A mobile device with either iOS or Android support.
  • ​Must have iOS 10 or higher
  • Must have Android 5.0 and higher
  • There is no support for PC set up.
• An internet connection from your local ISP (Internet Service Provider).
• Your Wireless Network must secured with WPA2 Encryption (Enterprise mode NOT supported). 
• Availability and performance of certain features, services and applications are device- and network-dependent and may not be available in all areas; subscription(s) may be required, and additional terms, conditions and/or charges may apply.

Wi-Fi requirement

• Wi-Fi routers must have Encryption enabled to install JBL LINK speakers (WPA2 etc).
• Wi-Fi Extenders need to feature support of Multicast forwarding and UPnP.
• Always use 5 GHz Wi-Fi for best performance and less interference.
• For routers that have 2.4G Wi-Fi support only, make sure that they are using channels 1, 6 or 11 only.

You can now install your JBL LINK speaker to your Wireless Network and you can find our setup article that shows how to install your LINK product.

 

LE Audio is the next generation of Bluetooth Audio, making audio streaming over Bluetooth Low Energy possible. It enables new use cases and significantly reduces power consumption compared to Classic (BR/EDR) Audio. LE Audio allows for independently synchronized audio streams to each earbud as well as seamlessly broadcasting audio streams to multiple listeners, with low power consumption. 

JBL QuantumSPHERE 360 is JBL QuantumSURROUND that’s kicked up a notch by using a head-tracking sensor to fix sounds in 360 degrees of space around you. With typical headphones, when you move your head, the soundscape follows your movement. But with JBL QuantumSPHERE 360, if you rotate your head, the sound source’s perceived location stays in place because the head-tracking sensor compensates for your head movement. For example, if there’s a sound coming from in front of you, and you turn your head to the left, the sound source’s perceived location moves to your right ear—the sound stays locked in space as you move your head. 

Also, the human brain uses small head movements to distinguish if sound sources are behind or in front of us. The brain processes the differences between when a sound arrives at the left vs. the right ear to determine where the sound is located. So with JBL QuantumSPHERE 360, you can move your head naturally to pinpoint the exact source of sounds around you. 

The Normal and Pulsed DC triggers are active (on) when the No. 523 and No. 526 is on, they are not active (off) when the No. 523 and No. 526 is off. The Theatre DC trigger is present only if the current input is in SSP mode, otherwise this trigger is off.
