Chapter 1 Introduction
1.1 IR Remote Control Operations
The device may also be controlled with the included IR remote control, shown in Figure 1-1.
Batteries (2×AAA) must be installed before operation.
The IR remote is set at the factory to control the device (using default Device ID# 255) without any
additional steps. Device ID# 255 is the default universal device identification number shared by the
devices. You may also pair an IR Remote to a specific device by changing the Device ID#, as follows:
1.1.1 Pairing (Enabling) the IR Remote to a Specific Device
(optional)
You can pair an IR Remote to a specific device by creating a user-defined Device ID#. This feature is
useful when using multiple IR Remotes and devices.
On the device:
Step 1 Go to System > General.
Step 2 Type a number (255 digits maximum) into Device No.
On the IR Remote:
Step 3 Press DEV.
Step 4 Use the Number buttons to enter the Device ID# that was entered into the device.
Step 5 Press Enter to accept the new Device ID#.
