Routing IR Data
• IR commands from a room location are home run to its assigned SENSOR input on the RVL-6.
• IR commands are routed to the next RVL-6 by cascading from the IR DATA OUT of the first RVL-6 to the IR
DATA IN of the next. IR flashers controlling shared source components are connected to the COMMON
FLASHER outputs of the last RVL-6. Each dedicated stereo receiver is controlled by an IR flasher connected
to the DEDICATED FLASHER output of its corresponding RVL-6 (see Figure 35). IR commands from any
room are routed to the common source components. However, IR is also routed to dedicated components
like the zone receivers via the DEDICATED FLASHER outputs.
• Both ZONE DIP switches are set to the disabled position (down). This ensures that RVL-6 IR commands
intended to control a specific unit does not affect other RVL-6's in the system (see Figure 36)
