  • Page 4: How To Use The Extender

    How to Use the Extender Introduction Infrared (IR) remote controls do not work properly when obstacles between the remote control and the audio/video devices disturb the operating signal. This problem can be solved using radio frequency (RF) as a carrier for IR commands. The Remote Control, in combination with the Extender, can operate audio/video devices from virtually any location. A/V equipment Media Center When the front blaster of the Extender cannot reach all devices or transmits with too much power, you can use the included Single IR emitters. You can set up the Single IR emitters in two ways: • The Single IR emitters in combination with the front blaster. When there is limited space around the IR receivers of the devices, for instance in a small closet. • The Single IR emitters instead of the front blaster. When you want to transmit IR signals very accurately, you turn off the front blaster and control the devices by using the Single IR emitters alone.

  • Page 7: How To Install The Extender

    How to Install the Extender Make sure you have the following components: Extender, power adapter, Single IR emitters and optionally screws. The installation of the Extender consists of 4 main steps: • Configuring the Extender; • Connecting the Extender; • Positioning the Extender; • Installing the Single IR emitters. How to Configure the Extender In the Link Extenders to components step of the New Project Wizard of the Configuration Program: • Define the channel; • Add Extender 0 to the project; • Link the components to the Extender; • Define which IR port to use: the front blaster or one of the 4 other IR ports. E Tip To add more than one Extender to the project, see How to Do More on page 10. How to Connect the Extender Plug the power cable into the back of the Extender.
  • Page 8 Once you have found the best position, you can optionally mount the Extender onto a piece of furniture using screws. Drive the screws into a rack, closet or another piece of furniture. Provide sufficient space to connect the power adapter and to slide the Extender in place. E Tip Depending on the surface, it may be possible to attach the Extender to the furniture using a piece of 2-sided tape or velcro. Slide the Extender in place.

  • Page 9: How To Install The Single Ir Emitters

    How to Install the Single IR Emitters The Single IR emitters can be used in combination with, or as an alternative to the front blaster. Plug the Single IR emitters into the Extender. Attach the Single IR emitters to a neighboring surface facing the IR receiver (for aesthetic purposes or when it is difficult to locate the IR receiver). –or– Attach the Single IR emitters directly to the IR receivers of your devices. Make sure the Single IR emitters are connected properly and that they are placed within range of the IR receivers of the A/V devices. D Note The front blaster is an additional addressable IR port. The IR signals are not sent via IR emitters but through the front of the Extender. That way it allows you to control projectors and IR-receivers which are placed outside the rack or closet.

  • Page 10: How To Do More

    How to Do More How to Set the Extender IDs The Extender can be used in several situations: out of sight or inside a closet. Since the Extender ‘communicates’ with the Remote Control, you must set the same Extender ID (identity) on both appliances. The settings depend on whether you have a single Extender or multiple Extenders. Single Extender When you use only one Extender, you can keep the default setting for the Extender ID (ID=0). In the Link Extenders to components step of the New Project Wizard of the Configuration Program, add Extender 0 to the project. Refer to the Configuration Program’s Online Help for more information. Multiple Extenders If you want to operate several of your devices independently, e.g. grouped in different locations, you need multiple Extenders. When using several Extenders, it is important to assign a unique Extender ID to each Extender. You can assign 16 Extender IDs (from 0 to 9 and from A to F). Choose an Extender ID for the Extender by turning the Extender ID dial with a small screwdriver. In the Link Extenders to components step of the New Project Wizard, add the same Extender IDs to the project. Refer to the Configuration Program’s Online Help for more information.
  • Page 11: How To Do A Range Check

    How to Do a Range Check If the Remote Control and the Extender are too far apart, the signal will be out of range. You can do a range check on the Remote Control. D Note If no Extender is defined in the Configuration Program, the Range Check Extenders option will not be presented in the Service Menu. Press and for 3 seconds to enter the Service Menu. Choose the option Range Check Extenders. The Range Check screen appears: No range Low range Medium range High range Select Back to return to the Service Menu. How to Avoid Interference from Other Remote Controls If the busy LED on the Extender is blinking without the Remote Control sending commands, the Extender picks up signals from another Remote Control on the same channel. You can solve this problem by changing the channel. You configure the channel in the Link Extenders to components step of the New Project Wizard and on the Extender. All Remote Controls and RF Extenders need to be defined on the same channel. Three channels (from 1 to 3) can be assigned.
  • Page 12: How To Adjust The Power Level Of The Ir Outputs

    How to Adjust the Power Level of the IR Outputs At the back of the Extender, there are 4 dipswitches, one for each IR Output. Use these dipswitches to configure the power level of the Single IR emitters. • Raise the power levels if there is a device near that might cause IR interference such as a plasma TV. • Lower the power levels if you want to operate 2 or more identical devices that are placed near each other in order to prevent the devices from receiving the IR signal intended for the other device. Troubleshooting The busy LED on the Extender blinks while the Remote Control is not being used • This indicates that another Remote Control is being used in the proximity of the Extender.
