4.3. Learning IR signal of air-conditioner to the CG102IR-AC
Before installing the CG102IR-AC, it is advised to learn the IR codes from the original
remote of your air-conditioner to the CG102IR-AC first.
Step 1: Remove the front cover of CG102IR-AC, you will see the IR learning head.
Step 2: Download the “CG102IR Planner”software from
http://citygrowsys.com/Software.php?Keywords=CG102IR%20Planner, and install
the software to a computer (Microsoft Windows XP/Vista/7)
Install “IR Master PC software”into Window PC.( Window XP or later version.). Then,
connect CG101UTU cable (Not included), from PC to CG102IR-AC USB port. Please
note you do not need to connect AC power adaptor to CG102IR, since the USB will
power up the CG102IR. Then, run IR Master PC software.

Step 3: Inside the PC user interface, select “connect” and so PC is connected to
CG102IR-AC.

9
Step 4: Place the original IR remote in front of the CG102IR-AC IR learning head,
the best distance is 50mm from the IR learning head.
Step 5: Learn all the IR signal from your existing remote controller of the air-
conditioner to the CG102IR-AC according to following Table 1 IR Signal learning
table.
NOTES:
1. The IR Master PC software will show “Success”, then you may input the
description of this button for future use.
2. When you finish learning all the IR codes, maximum 60 codes, you should save
the file and give a file name for it.
3. Referring to the manual of HomeNET Planner PC software, you will be guided to
import the saved IR file into HomeNET Planner for your programming of the
panels or iPad/iPhone/Android mobile device control.
