Power Up Turn on the speaker using the awning light switch if the speaker light has been connected to the original awning light wiring. If connected to the optional power adaptor* (sold separately), use the switch on the speaker light (see CONNECTION DIAGRAM at far right). 2. Connect your Device Open the Bluetooth menu on your device to search for your RV Media Bluetooth speaker. Its Bluetooth device name is RV Media RGB. Upon first use, the speaker will not appear on your Bluetooth device list for approximately 8 seconds. Once it appears, select RV Media RGB to connect. No pin number or password is required. 3. Listen to Music!
You can stream music to the speaker without using the dedicated app. Use the volume control on your device to control the volume of the speaker. 4. Get the App The RV Media free app is available both on the Apple app store and Google Play. Search RV Media to download the app for your device. RV INSTALLATION LOCATION The RV Media Bluetooth Speaker Light operates on 12VDC and is intended to be installed on the exterior of your RV, ideally replacing an existing awning light. However, you can install it anywhere outside or inside the RV as long as you can connect it to 12VDC. INSTALLATION (see CONNECTION DIAGRAM at right) If installing in place of an exterior awning light, please use the following steps as a guide:
1. Carefully remove the existing awning light. Disconnect the RVs wiring from the light and keep the wiring accessible for the next step. 2. Connect the red wire of the supplied male power lead to the RVs +12V wire, and connect the black wire to the RVs ground wire. Make these connections with suitable crimp terminals or solder and heat shrink. 3. Mark the location of the 4 mounting screws. Be careful to ensure the screws will not damage any materials behind the mounting surface. 4. Mount the optional locating brackets using the center screw (only) with the hook part at the bottom. These brackets provide reinforcement for the speaker plus they can be used as a temporary, removable mounting option if required. Apple app 5. Apply the foam sealing tape around the back edge of the speaker. 5. Using the App To use the app, please follow these steps:
a) Turn on the RV Media Bluetooth Speaker Light. b) Connect your device as per step 2 above. c) Open the app. The app will search for the speaker then open the Light On/Off and Color Selection menu. d) Use the app to control the light functions. Google Play app 6. Bluetooth Connection & App Troubleshooting After first connection of your device to the speaker, the speaker should automatically reconnect the next time it is powered up (providing Bluetooth is enabled on your device). If you reopen the app but it fails to reconnect to the speaker, please close the app then reopen it. Please use the following procedures to close the app:
Apple - double click on the home button to open a list of apps running in the background, then locate the RV Media app and swipe up to close the app. Android - Launch the Recent Applications Menu (this varies from device to device so check your user documentation if you are unsure how to find this menu). Locate the RV Media app and swipe to the right to close it. 7. Reconnecting the Devices When you power up the RV Media Speaker Light, it will first attempt to reconnect to a device that was previously connected (this applies to the last 5 devices connected to the speaker). 6. Plug the female power lead attached to the speaker light into the male power lead that was wired in step 2. We suggest that this connection be secured with electrical tape. Mount the speaker using the 4 supplied screws taking care not to overtighten the screws. Please ensure the wiring is recessed as much as possible in the hole it emerges from and ensure that any remaining cable is stored in the cavity on the back of the speaker. Press in the supplied screw covers to hide the screws. 7. To complete the installation, use a suitable RV sealant to seal around the edge of the speaker to ensure a water tight seal. NOTE: If you are unsure about any aspects of the installation, please seek the advice of an experienced RV installation technician or electrician. INSTALLATION IN OTHER LOCATIONS For installations in marine applications, home pergolas, pool and entertainment areas etc., when a direct 12V power source is not available, please use the optional RV Media 110VAC/12VDC power adaptor* (sold separately). The power adaptor converts 110VAC to the required 12VDC and features an extra long 9 foot power cord to ensure it reaches the Bluetooth Speaker. NOTE: The power adaptor should be located in a dry environment. 11200 Hampshire Avenue South, Bloomington, MN 55438 PH 952.922.6889 || FAX 952.922.8424 || kingconnect.com PLEASE SEE BACK OF THIS GUIDE FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON OPERATION AND APP FUNCTIONS.
*Manufacturer specified adaptor - KING #RVM50 (input: 110-240 V, 50/60 Hz, 1.5 A max) OPERATION POWER UP THE SPEAKER LIGHT To ensure easy operation when the Bluetooth Speaker Light is installed in place of an awning light, use your RV awning light power switch to turn the Speaker Light on or off. When the Speaker Light is installed in other locations using the optional 110VAC to 12VDC power adaptor* (sold separately), please use the speakers on/off switch
(located on right hand corner of speaker) to turn the LED light on or off. BLUETOOTH CONNECTION The RV Media App Controlled Bluetooth Speaker Light connects to devices such as Smart Phones and Tablets using Bluetooth A2DP Audio Streaming technology. 1. When powered on, the speaker will attempt to connect to a device that has been paired to it previously. The red LED at the bottom will begin to flash while the blue LED is illuminated constantly. Depending on how many devices have been paired previously, the speaker will remain in this mode for around 8-30 seconds. During this time, the speaker will not be visible to devices that have not connected to it before. 2. After this period, if a device connected previously is not present, or you are connecting for the first time, the red and blue LEDs will flash alternately and RV Media RGB will become visible on your Bluetooth Device list. At this time you can select RV Media RGB to connect to the Bluetooth Speaker.
(To connect to the speaker, open the Bluetooth menu on your device and search for new devices. Select RV Media RGB to initiate connection.) You do not need to enter a PIN code to connect a device to this speaker. 3. When connected, both red and blue LEDs will illuminate constantly to confirm that a device is connected to the speaker. 4. Only one device can be connected at a time but a maximum of 5 devices, once paired, can be stored in memory. This means that a device previously paired will automatically pair once the speaker is turned on providing the device is within range. If, for example, a 6th device is paired with the speaker, the oldest device will be erased and will need to be manually reconnected if used again. 5. Once connected to your device, you can then use your devices audio controls to start music playback and control the speakers volume level. 6. Audio may also be streamed from many Smart Phone apps such as Internet Radio Stations, Youtube, video players, etc. This feature is dependent on app and device capabilities, software and operating system version. APP FUNCTIONS Once you have paired the speaker to your device, you can now open the app (please see the QUICK START GUIDE on front for details on installing the RV Media app). APP FUNCTIONS - MAIN CONTROL SCREEN (FIG. 1) Light Control To turn the integrated light on or off, tap on the light bulb symbol (Fig. 1a). To dim or brighten the light, touch and move the Dimmer icon (Fig. 1b). Move it counter clockwise to dim the light or clockwise to make the light brighter. To change the lights color, select your desired color within the color wheel (Fig. 1e). Equalizer The RV Media app also features an integrated audio Equalizer. To use this function, tap on the Equalizer icon (Fig. 1c) and then select your desired sound mode for a selection of:
Pop, Rock, Classical, Disco, Jazz or Theater (Fig. 2). To return to the Main Control Screen, touch the return arrow (Fig. 2a). Additional Functions (Color Scan, Insect Light, Sleep Timer) From the Main Control Screen, touch the Additional Function Icon (Fig. 1d) to access the Additional Function Screen (Fig. 3) for the following functions:
Color Scan This mode constantly changes the light color through the color spectrum. Slide the speed control (Fig. 4a) to vary the scan speed to suit your mood! Great for parties, demonstrations or relaxing. Insect Light Turn on the Insect Light mode to help keep insects away from your RV. The amber colored light has been carefully selected specifically for this function. Sleep Timer The sleep timer allows you to completely power off the Speaker Light after a predetermined period of time that you select. This is a great security function as well as being useful if someone is, for example, returning to the RV at a later time. When you tap the sleep timer function (Fig. 5a), you can select a sleep time varying from 0 minutes
(which turns off the speaker immediately) to 60 minutes. Scroll to your desired time then tap Confirm to start the timer. NOTE: As this function completely powers off the speaker, you will not be able to turn it back on via the app. To power the speaker up again, you will need to turn it off and on at its main power switch (for example the awning light switch on the vehicle).

CONNECTION SECURITY While this device does not need a PIN code to allow devices to connect to it, your connection is secure and cannot be disturbed by other nearby Bluetooth devices. Once you have turned on the Bluetooth Speaker Light and connected your Bluetooth device, the speaker ceases being in discovery mode and will not be visible to other Bluetooth devices, ensuring your Bluetooth connection with the speaker is uninterrupted. If while using the speaker, you want to connect a different device to it, it is suggested you use the following procedure:
a) Turn off the speaker. b) Turn off Bluetooth on the device that had been connected to the speaker. c) Turn on the speaker and connect the new device to it. NOTE: The reason you need to turn off Bluetooth on the original device is that the speaker may connect to it first (when you turn it back on) rather than the new device. Once the new device is connected, you can turn Bluetooth on again on the original device. This system ensures you have a secure connection between your device(s) and the speaker that cannot be interrupted by nearby Bluetooth devices. CLEANING While the RV Media Bluetooth Speaker Light is fully waterproof, it is recommended that when cleaning your RV with a pressure washer or high pressure hose that it be covered with a plastic bag and taped to the edge of the speaker.
