IR Programmable Outputs (1-6)
U
1 Carefully attach an IR emitter to a device being controlled via infrared after locating the IR eye on
S
the device front panel and peeling away the adhesive protective strip on the flat side of the emitter.
I
TIP - If the IR eye is not obvious, refer to the owner's manual or shine a small flash
N
light into the display window on the device front panel to locate the eye.
G
2 Carefully pull the emitter wire back to the MSC-400 and connect it to the appropriate IR program-
mable output jack.
C
TIP - This step is critical in that once programmed and cond for discrete output, the
C MSC-400 will only send a specific device's IR commands to that device via the
assigned IR Port. If an emitter is not connected to the proper IR Port, the MSC-400
P
will be sending commands to the wrong device. Keep written notes of which device's
emitters are connected to which IR Ports and label each emitter wire at the plug
end for type, brand and model as well as the IR Port number. POLARITY: TIP=Signal,
E
SLEEVE=GND.
D
IR or RS232 Programmable Outputs (7-12) – IR
I
NOTE - The default Configuration for these Ports is RS232. When using these outputs for IR, it is highly recom-
T
mended that the special URC 6-IRS Sleeved Emitters be used to prevent possible long term damage to the
O
emitters from contact with voltage connections that are normally used for RS232.
R
1 Carefully attach the sleeved IR emitter to a device being controlled via infrared after locating the IR
eye on the device front panel and peeling away the adhesive protective strip on the flat side of the
emitter.
T
TIP - If the IR eye is not obvious, refer to the owner's manual or shine a small flash
O
light into the display window on the device front panel to locate the eye.
2 Carefully pull the sleeved emitter wire back to the MSC-400 and connect it to the appropriate ir or
P
rs232 programmable output jack.

M
IR OR RS232 PROGRAMMABLE OUTPUTS (Ports 7-12) – RS232
NOTE - There are two versions of the RS232 cable. The RS232M has a male DB9 connector and the RS232F
has a female DB9 connector. Be sure to verify the proper cable configuration by visually inspecting the RS232
