ICC1-IRX has inputs for scanning and power sensors. ICC1-IRX TV Controllers receive the ICC-Net data channel and pass analog and digital channels on to the TV. The commands are generic, as make/model specific IR commands, logic, and sensor responses are stored and sent directly from the TV Controller.

If needed, fix CATV problems before installing the system. 2. Connect the CATV RF Coax cable into the RF In input on the ICC1-IRX. 3. If the iCC-Net signal is operating, the Net LED will blink once per second.
CSM1 Power Sensor. Apply DC power to the ICC1-IRX. If the unit’s device number has already been set, note the current settings for S1 switches 1-8 and S2 switches 1-4 – you will reset those switches when you’re done.

PC Sensor Setup: LCDs marked CSM1 or CC-HSD do not have discrete IR power commands. The first Code number is set to look for the sensor to know if the TV is on or off. If you want to use unsensed toggling power instead, use the –CSM code. Instead, the ICC1-IRX will wait for an “OFF”...

Turn enclosure so the DIP switches are on the bottom In the next step, you’ll need to set up the device number and operation parameters for the ICC1-IRX. Notice that the functions of the S1 and S2 switches change when you set the unit in Device mode.

1. Connect the CC-IRE IR Emitter plug into the IR Out jack. 2. Mount the emitter cube to the TV case where the TV receives IR commands. 3. Mount the ICC1-IRX to the TV using included Velcro tape. 4. Connect DC power to unit.

You can use the Preset Edit page to send the same command. Select the TV (s) you want to change, check Use Commands and Command String, then enter “T1,code #” (example, T1,46 for Sharp TVs).

Identical to using DIP switch to set IR control codes. Specify value to match IR code type. Add 64 to the IR code to set the ICC1-IRX to ignore the power sensor – if the type is specified as Sensor – discrete types always ignore the sensor input.
ICC1-IRX. For example, if the ICC1-IRX power state is off, the display can’t be turned on from the IR remote or TV front panel. The controller will sense the change from the power sensor and turn the set off.

A few TVs, such as some Visio models, will respond to every repeat, so that channel 3-1 appears as 3311. Making the pulse shorter, typically N1,2, fixes the problem. Sending an N1,0 command resets the controller to the default pulse length. Contemporary Research ICC1-IRX...
The ICC1-IRX and ICC1-232 controllers typical for many SignStream display control systems are designed to follow a Zone address format. You can use the 4 top switches in the second DIP switch (S2) to define the controller’s Zone. You could stop at that point, or use the upper switches (S1) to define the controller’s address within the Zone.
