OptiLinQ SMR1 Installation Instructions And Owner's Manual

SMR1insMan.qxd 12/20/02
The SMR1 and SMR1P are small IR receivers that have been designed primarily for mounting in panels,
doors, cabinets, etc. for control of A/V equipment behind closed doors. They may be mounted in walls,
ceilings, wall speakers, etc., virtually anywhere an inconspicuous appearance is desired. Their high sensitivity
allows placement behind speaker grilles and still receive IR commands up to 25 feet away. If longer range is
necessary, a 1/2-inch hole must be drilled in the grille to allow unobstructed entry of the IR signal.
SMR1 - Standard version, with brass bezel, and a 7 Foot three-conductor ribbon cable.
SMR1P - Same as SMR1 with a mini phone plug on the end of the cable.
FEATURES
• Very small size, only 2 1/4 inches deep.
• Works in a standard 3-wire system.
• System testing talk-back LED.
• Includes 3-Terminal Block for easy extension of the
7 Foot ribbon cable (not in SMR1P).
• 12 units may be powered by one PS1 power supply.
• RF Grid included for EMI interference reduction.
INSTALLATION
SMR1 is intended to be wired to the input terminals of Sonance Connecting Blocks or other devices, using
the supplied 3-terminal block in the remote room location. A 3-conductor cable (refer to specifications above)
is run to the main room. Connections are then made to a Sonance connecting block, power supply, and
emitters as shown in the following illustration of a typical basic system:

3-Terminal Block (supplied)
REMOTE ROOM
While it is possible to make wired connections without the connecting block, it is not recommended. The
connecting block reduces installation time, helps to eliminate errors, allows easy troubleshooting, and permits
easy system upgrades later, if needed. Input connections must be made as illustrated.
TIME SAVING TIP
The threads on the chassis of the SMR1 and SMR1P are
coarse for ease of installation. To further save on
installation time, it is recommended that the lens cap is
removed and the nut is set to a predetemined length (see
table on right). Place the SMR1 or SMR1P into the
predrilled 1/ 2 " diameter knockout in the speaker baffel.
Then reattach the lens cap (and lens) from the front. Twist
the tube counterclockwise in the nut to lock the SMR1 or
SMR1P in place. This can greatly ease installation and
.
