3 Download up-to-date Kramer user manuals from the Internet at this URL: http://www.kramerelectronics.com/manuals.html 4 For example, when ordering an IR-1-01 remote control transmitter, order an external remote receiver to control Kramer switchers—such as the VS-1002, VS-1202, VS-1602, and VS-1604—that have no built-in remote receiver 5 It includes an attached RS-232 cable with a DB9 connector, and comes with a 12V DC power adapter 6 The complete list of Kramer cables is on our Web site at http://www.kramerelectronics.com (click “Cables and Connectors”...
• Have their own hand held wireless remote control transmitter that includes the protocols of all Kramer devices and is programmable to control any Kramer machine (see Figure 1) • Transmit to an identical remote receiver, either built-in (see Figure 2) or external (see Figure 3).
Your Remote Control Transmitters (IR-1 / IR-1-01) Your Remote Control Transmitters (IR-1 / IR-1-01) Figure 1 and Table 1 define the IR-1 and the IR-1-01 remote control transmitters , which require no connection (just insert the battery): Figure 1: Remote Control Transmitters (IR-1 and IR-1-01) 1 Items 17, 18, and 19 of the IR-1-01 remote control transmitter let you route up to 96 x 96 inputs/outputs, as well as store/recall up to 99 configuration setups with some of our advanced switchers (for the complete list, see Group 20 in Table 2)
4 For example, say you want to increase the volume, but instead of pressing SHIFT + 17, you press SHIFT + 20, in error, you can press ESC (clearing the 20) and then 17 5 This feature will be available in future versions 6 To adjust the volume on the VP-25xl, see section 7.4.1 KRAMER: SIMPLE CREATIVE TECHNOLOGY...
When ordering a IR-1-01 remote control transmitter, a separate order must be made for an external remote receiver if you want to use the IR-1-01 to control a Kramer switcher that has no built-in remote receiver—such as the VS-1002,...

Configuration Configuration Kramer products are arranged in groups. Each group is controlled by a different protocol . To use the IR-1 and/or IR-1-01 you need to manually allocate each unit you want to control to its group. Allocating the units in this way enables the IR-1 and/or IR-1-01 to communicate with each unit in the system.
* Use a cross connection (or Null-modem adapter), as section 5.2 describes 1 Old protocol 2 New Kramer Protocol-2000 (version 3.1) 3 When operating the VS-1211 unit, in Group 12 (but not Group 15), press the (input) # key twice...
