  • Page 3: Overview

    The ICC1-IR IR TV Controller delivers economical 1-way control for TV power, volume, and channels, receiving iCC-Net network commands over the same broadband coax that carries the CATV channels. Compact in size and price, the ICC1-IR features sensed power on/off control and intelligent tuning from a channel list stored in onboard non-volatile memory.

  • Page 5: Installation

    If needed, fix CATV problems before installing the system. 2. Connect the CATV RF Coax cable into the RF In input on the iCC1-IR. 3. If the iCC-Net signal is operating, the Net LED will blink once per second.
  • Page 6: Setting Ir Control Codes (Ir Type Mode)

    See the section on page 11 on using our software to set the IR code set. The DIP switches S1 and S1 at the bottom of the ICC1-IR serve in two modes, IR Type, Channel Entry and Device Number, determined by S2 Switch 6 and S2 Switch 5.

  • Page 8 PC Sensor Setup: LCD marked PC Sensor (Power Current Sensor) do not have discrete IR power commands. Instead, the ICC1-IR will wait for an “OFF” signal from a power sensor before it sends an ON IR command. Go to our Support blog page Power Current Sensing for info on sensed absolute power control.
  • Page 9: Setting Device Number And Parameters (Device Mode)

    Turn enclosure so the DIP switches are on the bottom In the next step, you’ll need to set up the device number and operation parameters for the ICC1-IR. Notice that the functions of the S1 and S2 switches change when you set the unit in Device mode.

    1. Connect the CC-IRE IR Emitter plug into the IR Out jack. 2. Mount the emitter cube to the TV case where the TV receives IR commands. 3. Mount the ICC1-IR to the TV using included Velcro tape. 4. Connect DC power to unit.

    Identical to using DIP switch to set IR control codes. Specify value to match IR code type. Add 64 to the IR code to set the ICC1-IR to ignore the power sensor – if the type is specified as Sensor – discrete types always ignore the sensor input.
  • Page 16 Locks power operation – only functional with display with power current sensor. When the control is locked, the display is locked to the power state of the ICC1-IR. For example, if the ICC1-IR power state is off, the display can’t be turned on from the IR remote or TV front panel.
  • Page 17 A few TVs, such as some Visio models, will respond to every repeat, so that channel 3-1 appears as 3311. Making the pulse shorter, typically N1,2, fixes the problem. Sending an N1,0 command resets the controller to the default pulse length. Contemporary Research ICC1-IR...
  • Page 18: Ic-Net Smartzones

    The ICC1-IR and ICC1-232 controllers typical for many SignStream display control systems are designed to follow a Zone address format. You can use the 4 top switches in the second DIP switch (S2) to define the controller’s Zone.

    Typical RF and ICC-Net Signal Flow The diagram below shows the structure of a typical Contemporary Research media retrieval system. One of the key aspects for iCC-Net communication is to provide a forward and return (sub-channel) path for data if you’re using ICC2 2-way TV Controllers.
