Models 1170 and 1176 may be mixed in one system hosted by a Model 1166 or 1156 when some Wallplates are to have individually selectable video and some are to have common content as described above.
This product should be installed by a qualified custom electronics installer. These instructions address the Model 1170, which is always used with a Model 1166, 1156 or 1171. Refer to the Model 1166/56 or Model 1171 instruction manual for complete directions for installing this product.
For this feature to work, the Model 1166 IR Output port must be connected to a compatible infrared emitter or distribution system. See “Using Compatible Infrared Equipment” at the end of this manual. Model 1170 infrared operation with a Model 1171 is similar, but sources cannot be selected, since there is only one.
Operation The Model 1170 is the distribution center for Model 9878 Wallplates. At each Wallplate equipped with an in- frared receiver and a properly programmed universal infrared remote control, you can control the functions of video sources located at the main home theater. The same IR remote can also control components in the room where the Wallplate is located, such as a television, satellite or DVD player.
Model 1171 Cat 5 MultiDriver provides input connections for an HDTV source such as a satellite box or DVD player, and up to six Wallplate outputs. To expand the number of outputs, up to six 1170 MultiDriver Expanders can be added for a maximum of 42 outputs. See “Using Compatible IR Products” on the next page for infrared control pathway functionality.
