Niles RVL-6 Installation & Operation Manual page 13

RVL-6's SENSOR inputs
RVL-6's built-in IR sensor
• DIP switches on the rear panel of the RVL-6 enable the blocking of an IR command received from the
RVL-6's IR DATA IN (for more information see Setting the MODE DIP switches on pages 16 and 17). The
RVL-6's built in IR sensor can be disabled (for more information see page 18).
COMMON FLASHER Output
• The COMMON FLASHER output is an outlet for IR commands received from any of the RVL-6's SENSOR
inputs, built-in IR sensor, and the IR DATA IN used for source control (see Figure 12).
• None of the IR commands received via the RVL-6's sensor inputs or DATA IN can be blocked. The RVL-6's
built-in IR sensor can be disabled (for more information see page 18).
Recommended IR Flasher Cable
• Niles infrared flashers come supplied with a ten foot two-conductor 22 gauge cable.
• To extend the flasher cable, use un-shielded, two-conductor 16 gauge cable ("zip-cord"). Flasher cable can
be extended up to 200 feet.
Making the IR Flasher Connections
• CAUTION: Power to the RVL-6 and amplifier must be disconnected.
• For your convenience, all FLASHER output connectors on the RVL-6 are removable.
• Observe proper polarity when connecting or extending the IR flasher wire (see Figure 13).
• Strip 3/8" of insulation from the end of each wire.
• Tightly twist each wire end until there are no frayed ends.
• Insert each wire into the appropriate hole on the connector terminals following the IR flasher wire conven-
tion (see Figure 13).
• Tighten the screws which lock the wire into place. Be certain that the polarity labels on the rear of the RVL-6
are precisely followed.
