1 How to Use the Extender 1.1 Introduction Infrared (IR) remote controls do not work properly when obstacles between the remote control and the audio/video devices disturb the operating signal. This problem can be solved using radio frequency (RF) as a carrier for IR commands. The Remote Control, in combination with the Extender, can operate audio/video devices from virtually any location.
ENGLISH You can combine multiple extenders or combine the RFX9200 and the PCX9200 as shown in the situation above. You can control each Extender individually with one or more Remote Controls.
1.
How to Install the Extender ENGLISH 2 Make sure you have the following components: Extender, power adapter, Single IR emitters and optionally screws. The installation of the Extender consists of 4 main steps: • Configuring the Extender; • Connecting the Extender; • Positioning the Extender; • Installing the Single IR emitters. 2.
Reflection area Once you have found the best position, you can optionally mount the Extender onto a piece of furniture using screws. 1 Drive the screws into a rack, closet or another piece of furniture. Provide sufficient space to connect the power adapter and to slide the Extender in place. E Tip Depending on the surface, it may be possible to attach the Extender to the furniture using a piece of 2-sided tape or velcro. 2 Slide the Extender in place.
ENGLISH 2.4 How to Install the Single IR Emitters The Single IR emitters can be used in combination with, or as an alternative to the front blaster. Plug the Single IR emitters into the Extender. Attach the Single IR emitters to a neighboring surface facing the IR receiver (for aesthetic purposes or when it is difficult to locate the IR receiver). –or– Attach the Single IR emitters directly to the IR receivers of your devices.
3 How to Do More 3.1 How to Set the Extender IDs The Extender can be used in several situations: out of sight or inside a closet. Since the Extender ‘communicates’ with the Remote Control, you must set the same Extender ID (identity) on both appliances. The settings depend on whether you have a single Extender or multiple Extenders. Single Extender When you use only one Extender, you can keep the default setting for the Extender ID (ID=0).
ENGLISH 3.2 How to Do a Range Check If the Remote Control and the Extender are too far apart, the signal will be out of range. You can do a range check on the Remote Control. D Note If no Extender is defined in the Configuration Program, the Range Check Extenders option will not be presented in the Service Menu. 1 2 Press and for 3 seconds to enter the Service Menu. Choose the option Range Check Extenders.
3.4 How to Adjust the Power Level of the IR Outputs At the back of the Extender, there are 4 dipswitches, one for each IR Output. Use these dipswitches to configure the power level of the Single IR emitters. • Raise the power levels if there is a device near that might cause IR interference such as a plasma TV. • Lower the power levels if you want to operate 2 or more identical devices that are placed near each other in order to prevent the devices from receiving the IR signal intended for the other device.
