The IR signal is transferred to the corresponding zone connected with an HDBaseT receiver that has an IR transmitter. When the IR receiver is connected to IR ALL IN port, the IR signal can be transferred to all 4 IR transmitters connected with HDBaseT receivers. See figure below: TEKVOX, INC. www.tekvox.com 210.348.6565...
