It's common for projector remotes to not directly control the volume of WiSA-connected speakers. Here's why:
-
- Separate Audio Systems: WiSA creates a separate audio system. The projector's remote primarily controls the projector's functions (power, source, picture settings).
- Volume Control Handled by WiSA: Volume control is typically handled through:
- WiSA App: Most WiSA systems have a dedicated app (on your phone or tablet) for volume control, speaker settings, and system configuration.
- Speaker Remote: Some WiSA speakers come with their own dedicated remote for volume control.
- Receiver Remote: If you're using an AV receiver with WiSA capabilities, you'll likely use its remote for volume control.
