Introduction

An infrared (IR) extender system enables you to control your IR
remote controlled A/V equipment from a remote location. This
enables you to place your A/V components out of sight
(behind cabinet doors, in the rear of a room, or in a different
room) and still conveniently operate your equipment.
Installed at the equipment location, the MSU250 receives the
IR commands transmitted from your existing hand-held
remotes in that room. The commands are carried via a small
category 5 cable to your A/V equipment in another room, and
instantly "repeated".
The MSU250 is compatible with all current Niles infrared systems.
It may be used along with the Niles TS100, MS100, MS200,
WS100, MVC100IR and CS100 IR sensors or the IntelliPad
The model MSU250 is an IR Main System Unit. It is one of
three elements that make up an infrared extender system:
• IR Main System Unit-Models MSU140, MSU250,
MSU480 and MSU440Z.
• IR Sensors/Keypads-Models WS100, TS100, MS100,
MS200, CS100, MVC100IR and the IntelliPad.
• IR Flashers-Models MF1, MF2, MF1VF, MF2VF and
the IRB1.
An IR sensor expansion unit, Model IRH610, is available for
IR repeater systems used in more than six rooms.
