3. Wires can be solid or stranded, shielded or unshielded with a
minimum of 28-gauge for runs under 200', 22-gauge for runs
under 500' and 20-gauge for runs up to 1000'. Wires can be
looped from IR10 to IR10 or home run. Home runs normally
offer more reliability and future flexibility.
4. IR10s can be mixed and matched in larger systems with up
to 10 infrared receivers, such as the Knoll IR21, IR22 or IR25.
5. To wire the system together, connect the IR10 12V, GND
and SIG terminals to the corresponding IR54 or IR55 terminal.
Prepare the wire leads to and from the IR10 by stripping about
¼" of the insulation from each of the three leads. Twist the
strands tightly together so that they do not stick out of the
connector and cause a short circuit. Strictly observe polarity. If
you are connecting with the RJ45 connector you may need a
RJ45 paralleling strip to parallel connect the wires from multiple
IR receivers.
6. Next, plug the single or dual emitters into the IR54 or IR55
connection block.

7. Now plug in the PS1202 (for up to five receivers) or PS1205
for five to ten receivers.
8. The infrared system is usually left plugged in all the time (to
an unswitched outlet) as it uses very little power.
9. Test the infrared system to see if it is working properly.
Bright sunlight and passive infrared security systems can lower
the distance that remote controls can work with an IR10
receiver. If you have any questions or concerns, please call and
ask for infrared technical support at 1 800 566 5579. The help
line is open from 7:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday to Friday,
Pacific time.
