Surface Mount Mini Infrared Receivers

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

The IRC-2.0 and IRC-2.1 are very small IR Receivers designed to be mounted on
flat surfaces in furniture recesses, under shelves, etc., using the double-sided tape
supplied. Among their unique features is an exclusive Ambient Noise Suppression
(ANS) system. It acts to push down IRI, CFL, EMI, or ESI noise sources so that
stronger signals from IR remotes have adequate margin for command of the
controlled component.
Note: The ANS will take a few seconds to adjust to a given noise source. During this
time, the blue Activity LED will glow brightly and then fade out. If the interference
disappears momentarily, then returns, the fade down process will repeat. Certain
noise sources, however, (such as Plasma Screens) may result in low-level flickering
even after the fade down. This is normal. Such signals have been acted upon by
the ANS, allowing most equipment to be controlled.
