Cloning - InFocus HW-WALLREMOTE-1 Installation Manual

VI. Cloning
Attention: If you are using an InFocus projector, you do not need to program the
wall remote. Simply insert the appropriate insert modules and press one button to
configure the Wall Remote to control the InfFocus projector. Cloning the Wall
Remote wil erase the pre-programmed InFocus codes.
Cloning Overview
Any Wall Remote may quickly and easily copy all the codes from any other Wall
Remote, eliminating the need for programming each unit individually. When cloning
the Wall Remote, there will be a donor unit and a clone unit. The donor unit must
already be programmed with the appropriate codes (see Section V above). The
clone unit will copy the donor unit's codes.
Both Wall Remotes must have the same button inserts. For example, if the donor
Wall Remote has a toggling POWER button insert, the cloned Wall Remote must
also have a toggling POWER button insert. They may be of different colors.
In order to clone one Wall Remote to another, both units must be powered. The
donor unit will be installed at this stage and it should be powered normally.
To power the clone unit you may cut a short length of two- or three-conductor
cable to wire the terminal block with the attached power supply to the captive
screw connector on the back of the cloned Wall Remote. This may be easier than
removing the power supply from the terminal block.
Cloning Procedure
1. Set the clone unit to cloning mode. Until the Wall Remote is programmed, you
may set it to cloning mode by pressing and holding any button while applying
power.
If a Wall Remote has been programmed and you wish to set it to cloning mode,
gently insert a paperclip into the IR Learning aperture. Press and hold any button
on the clone unit and, while holding the button, remove the paperclip. The Wall
Remote will rapidly chirp for as long as it remains in cloning mode. The Wall
Remote will time out of cloning mode in about 15 seconds, so have both devices
on hand. If the Wall Remote times out of cloning mode, simply repeat this proce-
dure to return it to cloning mode.
Caution: Be gentle with the paperclip to ensure that you do not damage switch
mechanism.
2. Position the two units face-to-face, with both units held upright, approximately
one inch apart. They should be directly across from each other with the bezels
lined up. This will position the IR receiver window of the cloning Wall Remote
directly across from the IR transmitter in the donor Wall Remote.
Note: Be sure not to cover or obstruct the IR receiver window or transmitter with
your hands.
