Ir Code Confl Icts - Gefen 2x2 HDMI Switcher User Manual

Why would I need to change the remote channel?
In some instances, the 2x2 Switcher for HDMI may use IR codes that confl ict with other
IR remote control devices. The unit may switch inputs when another brand IR remote
control is used or the RMT-2IR may cause other brand IR controlled devices to behave
unexpectedly.
I am experiencing the issues listed above. What do I do?
In these cases it is recommended to change the IR channel that the RMT-2IR remote
control and the 2x2 Switcher for HDMI use. The IR channel is confi gured independently on
the RMT-2IR remote control and the 2x2 Switcher for HDMI but the channel selection must
match on both units for proper operation.
How Do I change the Remote Channel?
There are service DIP switches on the RMT-2IR remote control and also inside the 2x2
Switcher for HDMI. Use the diagrams below to locate and change the IR channel to one
that is not the default. Remember that the channel must match on both the unit and remote
control for successful operation.
The IR channel DIP switches for the 2x2 Switcher for HDMI are located on an 8 bank DIP switch inside
of the unit and on its main-board. To open the unit, remove all screws on the underside and side of the
unit. Remove all HEX screws on the rear panel. This includes the screws above each HDMI port and on
each side of the RS-232 serial communications port. Carefully slide the unit apart. Locate DIP switches 3
and 4. Once adjustments are complete replace all screws and.
