Quick Links

The Fone Link allows any cordless or wired telephone to function as a remote controller for IR controlled
audio/video components. Used with cordless phones, it provides a control system not affected by sunlight
or any other infrared interference. The Fone Link contains an infrared signal learning microprocessor and
is connected between the cordless or wired phone and the phone line.

FRONT PANEL
The front panel of the Fone Link is made of acrylic
plastic. It should be cleaned with a soft cloth as it
scratches easily. Behind the panel are five red LEDs
(light emitting diodes), three powerful Blast IR emit-
ters and an infrared sensor.
RED LED INDICATORS
PROGRAM - Lights when the PROGRAM button
on the rear panel is pressed.
LEARNING - Lights when any key on the tele-
phone is pressed.
ERROR - Lights when an error occurs or ex-
tended memory is required in the learning pro-
cess or when trying to send an unprogrammed
command.
DELETE - Blinks on and off when the DELETE
button on the rear panel is pressed.
OUTPUT - Lights to indicate when infrared com-
mands are being sent in response to pressing
telephone keys.
BLAST IR EMITTERS
Three Blast IR Emitters, for direct IR transmission to
the controlled equipment, are located between the
LEARNING and the DELETE LEDs. See Fig.1.
INFRARED SENSOR
The Infrared Sensor is located about one-half inch
above the OUTPUT LED. See Fig.1.

    • When the call is completed, go "ON-HOOK" by pressing the asterisk (*) key again if you want to return to IR control operations. If you do not want to continue IR control of your system, simply turn off the cordless phone (or hang-up a wired phone).  710-00...
  • Page 4: Output Jack

    Often, it is either undesirable or impractical to use the Blast IR output from the front of the Fone Link to operate the audio/video equipment directly. • The 3.5mm mono mini OUTPUT jack on the rear panel permits the use of single or dual Xantech external infrared emitters (i.e., Models 282-00, 283-00, 284-00 and 286-00 Mini-Emitters).
