Station
The ATON AIE2 is a sophisticated, detachable IR emitter. It features a docking
station that permits temporary removal of the emitter for rearranging or servicing
components. The AIE2 flashes red when emitting IR signals, making it an ideal
troubleshooting tool. This unit has 75% lower IR output than non-visible emitters,
therefore should not be used in "Blaster" applications.
Installation Notes:
• Read the Owner's Manual for the component to be controlled to find where the
IR Receiver Window is located. A flashlight can also be useful for this purpose.
• Emitters can be attached without the docking station. Use an extra adhesive
strip (included) applied directly to the flat side of the emitter.
• Use a new adhesive strip when re-attaching docking ports or emitters.
• The outer shell of the AIE2 is transparent to IR so that hand-held remotes can
be used even if the emitter is covering the component's IR receiver.

Installation
• Locate the component's IR receiver window. Thoroughly clean this window to
remove fingerprints, dust, etc.
• Peel the protective layer off of the adhesive strip on the docking station and apply
to the IR receiver window.
• Orient the docking station vertically, then press down for several seconds to
ensure good contact with the adhesive.
• Slide the emitter down from the top into the docking station. It should snap into
place.
• Connect the 3.5mm plug into an ATON DLA 2/4/6 Speaker Selector, AIB4
Amplified IR Connection Block or other source of IR.
• Remove the emitter from the docking station by sliding it upward.

Caution:
Do not plug the AIE2 into an emitter jack that is set to HIGH Power or "Blaster
as this will damage the emitter.
Additional Locations for Emitter Placement
Since the AIE2 has high output from its curved surface, it may be attached to near-
by surfaces such as shelves, doors, or cabinets. Use the LOW power
setting (not blaster power) on the connection block.

Limited Warranty
ATON* warrants to the purchaser/end user ("you") that the AIE2 is to be free from defects in materials and
workmanship for a period of five (5) years from date of purchase (the "Warranty Period"). This warranty is trans-
ferable to subsequent owners of the product as long as the original proof of purchase is retained. If you discover
a defect in material or workmanship within the Warranty Period, you can obtain warranty service by contacting
ATON during the Warranty Period at (859)-422-7137 or service@atonhome.com. If ATON determines that the
product is in fact defective, ATON shall, at its option, repair or replace the product free of charge to you.
This warranty shall not apply to equipment (a) not manufactured by ATON, (b) to equipment which was improperly
installed, (c) which was repaired or altered by persons other than ATON or its authorized representatives or sub-
ject to unauthorized tampering, alteration or modification, (d) damaged due to misuse, negligence, accident, acts
of God (including, but not limited to, excess moisture, insects, lightning, flood, electrical surge, tornado, earth-
quake, or other catastrophic events beyond ATON's control), or (e) subject to improper operation, maintenance
or storage or unreasonable use. The foregoing warranties do not cover reimbursement for labor, transportation,
removal, installation or other expenses which may be incurred in connection with repair or replacement. The
foregoing remedies shall be your exclusive remedies for any breach of warranty.
Further, the foregoing warranty does not extend to equipment sold, but not manufactured by, ATON ("Third Party

manufacturer of such product, who will also be responsible for warranty service, and ATON will pass through to
you any transferable warranty actually extended to ATON by the manufacturer.
THE FOREGOING WARRANTIES ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER EXPRESSED AND IMPLIED
WARRANTIES. ATON EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL SUCH OTHER WARRANTIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
Notwithstanding the above, where applicable, if you qualify as a "consumer" under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty
Act, then you may be entitled to any implied warranties allowed by law for the Warranty Period. Some states do
not allow limitations on how long an implied Limited Warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you.
