RF Settings Overview
The Omega is factory set to ID#0. Although this will work with any base
station set to ID#0, it does not allow any emitter or blaster configuration.
Before changing any emitter or blaster settings, you must reset the ID# to
an address other than 0.
By setting the RF addresses for each device you can operate identical
devices (like a stack of satellite receivers, cable boxes, or an array of iden-
tical TV sets). You do this by assigning a valid ID#, then selecting a partic-
ular IR Emitter Output via EMITT settings. To ensure that the identical com-
ponents are not affected by line of sight commands, you set the IR/RF for
the device to RF Only.
Many components with on-screen GUI's (guides, menus etc.) are extreme-
ly sensitive to IR overload/saturation. The best way of positioning emitters
for these devices is to set the IR/RF setting to RF only and to set the EMITT
to a specific line output, not the default setting of ALL.
Here are the factory default RF settings of the Omega:
IR/RF (Type of Signal) - All devices are factory set to send both an IR line of
ID# (Base Station Address) - All devices are factory set with ID #0.
EMITT (IR Emitter Line Output) - All devices are factory set to output IR com-
BLAST (Base Station Front Panel Blaster) - The blaster is factory set to be on.
Testing for Interference - When ID#0 is set on the bottom of the base station, the
STATUS LED will flicker if interference is present. Once the base station is moved to
a location where the LED does not flicker, the ID# can be changed to one of the
valid addresses (1-9 or A-F).
