It is easy to set the same S-AIR ID for
the main unit and the sub unit to
establish the connection.
However, if a neighbor has an S-AIR
main unit with the same S-AIR ID as
your S-AIR main unit, the neighbor
may be able to hear the audio
transmitted from your main unit on
the neighbor’s system. Also, you may
be able to hear the audio transmitted
from your neighbor’s S-AIR main unit
on your system. To prevent this, you
can identify the main unit with a

For example, you can install the sub
units, one in the study room and the
other in the bedroom, and then install
the main unit in the living room. You
can then listen to the music from the
main unit located in the living room by
controlling the sub units.
