Page 3: Introduction
When the System Reference Device is turned ON, the ISM4 will detect the change of state for the referenced device (from OFF to ON) and ‘look’ at the state of the other devices. -

(Source 1-4). When a sensed device is ON, the LED for that device will illuminate solid green. When that device is OFF the LED will be OFF. A Source LED will flash green when the ISM4 is outputting IR for that source. -

Test Button. This button has three functions, depending upon the ISM4 programming mode including: Test Source Macro, Test Learned IR Command and Test Delay. - Page 6 12. IR Control. One 2-circuit (mono) 3.5mm mini jack connects to a normal Emitter Output on an IR repeater system or IR Output on a system controller or A/V Receiver. IR signals input on this jack can control the ISM4 and pass through to control the individual sources via the Source 1-4 IR Outputs.

When Source 1 (System Reference Device) is turned ON, the Sensor Module for that device will show an ON state (+12V) to the Source 1 “Sense In”. The first task that the ISM4 will take is to launch the ON Macro for Source 1. - Page 8 ISM4 INSTALLATION & PROGRAMMING MANUAL Figure 4 – Typical ISM4 System – AV Receiver Triggered Home Theater/IR Receiver Input...

Source 1 “Sense In” on the ISM4. (ISM4 System Status is always referenced to the device sensed by the Source 1 “Sense In”.) The ISM4 will then ‘look’ at the other Source Sense Inputs and if they are OFF (no sensor control voltage), the ISM4 will output the Power ON Macros associated with each source to turn them ON. -

The ISM4 can be placed on a shelf in an equipment rack or closet or placed directly on top of a system device. It is suggested however, that the ISM4 not be placed directly on top of a device that generates high levels of heat to protect the ISM4 circuitry and longevity. -

Carefully pull the emitter wire to the back of the DVD Player and over to where the ISM4 is located. Be careful not to pinch the wire between components or block the disc drawer. - Page 15 DVD Player.

When the Source 1 “Sense In” on the Primary ISM4 senses an ON state (Sensor Control Voltage), this jack outputs 12VDC to the Source 1 “Sense In” on the Expansion ISM4 to indicate the System ON state. The Source 2-4 devices on the Expansion ISM4 will then sync to the system as programmed (turn ON). When the Source 1 “Sense In”... - Page 17 Connections/Multi-Zone System. NOTE 1: The Source 1 “Sense In” on the ISM4 Expansion units is used for System Status as referenced to the System Reference Device. There is no required IR Emitter connection to the Source 1 IR Outs on the ISM4 Expansion units.

Page 18: Programming
SOURCE ON/OFF MACROS The ISM4 allows programming one ON and one OFF Macro per Source. Each of these Macros can contain up to five sets of IR Commands and Delays called Command Structures. Different Front Panel LED prompts indicate which Macro (ON/OFF) for which Source (1-4) and which step or ‘Command Structure’... -
Page 19: Programming Macros
PROGRAMMING MACROS The first step in programming the ISM4 is to fill out the Macro Programming Table. This will help keep track of what device is being programmed for which command with how much delay in which Command Structure within the Source ON or OFF Macro being programmed. -

17. Navigate to the next Source ON or OFF Macro to be programmed. From the Source 1 ON Macro, press the Next Button for 2 seconds (Indicated by the first blink of the Active Source LED). The ISM4 will shift to the Source 1 OFF Macro;... -
Page 22: Programming Rc68 On/Off Trigger Commands
PROGRAMMING RC68 ON/OFF TRIGGER COMMANDS As noted at the beginning of the Programming Section, one of the ISM4 control options has the ISM4 react to Xantech RC68 IR Commands for Discrete Power ON/OFF or Toggle Power ON/OFF control of Source 1. When using the RC68 Commands, when the ON Button on the system remote is pressed, it will issue the RC68 ON Command. - Page 23 ON. Test OFF 6. With all sources turned ON, test the system by pointing the System Remote toward the ISM4 or connected IR Receiver and press the button with the RC68 Toggle Command. The System Reference Device (Source 1) and Sources 2-4 should all turn OFF.

Page 24: Rs232 Control And Programming
RS232 CONTROL AND PROGRAMMING The ISM4 can be controlled via RS232 to allow power management of the devices controlled by the ISM4 from a PC or appropriately capable system controller. It is important to note that the RS232 capability only allows for Discrete ON/OFF, Toggle ON/OFF as well as Status and System Information. - Page 25 Source 3 Power State = OFF Source 4 Power State = OFF The System Info Query can be useful in determining the build of a particular ISM4. On occasion, Xantech Technical Personnel may ask for this information should a problematic situation occur.
