QUICK GUIDE
Important-Safety Precautions
To prevent re or shock hazard, do not expose this product to rain
or moisture. Do not use near water.
To avoid electrical shock, do not open this product. The power
supply must be of the same voltage as the local area. Do not
overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in the
risk of re or electrical shock.
Refer servicing to qualied personnel only.
Note:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with CE EMC,
LVD directive.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment
generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instruction, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However, there
is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to
radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning
the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct
the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a power circuit different
from that to which the receiver is connected
• Consult the supplier or an experienced technician for help
Caution: Changes or modifications not expressly approved
by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s
warranty.
A. Checking Contents of Box
Check to ensure all of the components shown as below are
included with your wireless IR remote control extender system.
If something is missing, please contact your dealer as soon as
possible.
1 x Transmitter
1 x Receiver
1 x IR extender connected
to receiver’s rear panel
2 x Power adapter
(100-240VAC to 9VDC)
DC in Jack (9V 600mA)
B. Using the Device
1. The supplied power supply or exact equivalent must be used
with the device.
2. Be sure the transmitter and the receiver are connected to power
supplies.
3. In some situations where two or more devices are being used
within 50m of each other at the same time some interference to
operation may occur.
4. If another device of similar operating frequency is used within
range of this equipment some interference to operation ay occur.
5. Make sure the remote control is within receiving range of the
transmitter and the receiver or IR extender is in the correct range
and position to control the source. You may need to adjust the
position of the devices for the optimum performance. Sometimes
placing the IR extender directly over the IR receive window of
the source can cause local interference so you may need to
adjust the position of the IR extender pad slightly away from the
source receiver window for best performance.
6. The LED of the receiver and the transmitter’s IR remote control
window will ash when receiving remote control IR signals
Caution: If the receiver’s indication LED flashes when the
transmitter is not operating, it indicates there is interference in
the environment. This may cause interruptions or interference
to operation of the device.

D. How to Use the IR Remote Control Extender
This IR remote control extender will give you the ability to control
the source remotely using your existing remote control. It converts
the infrared (IR) signal emitted by your remote control to a radio
frequency (RF) signal in the UHF band at the transmitter and sends
it back to the receiver where the RF signal is converted back to the
original IR signal for the audio/video source.
There are two ways to control your source A/V equipment using
this kit.
1. To position the receiver unit face to face with the source
equipment, this will allow the converted IR signal from the
receiver to be blasted to the source equipment front IR receiver
panels.
2. Connect the IR extender accessory from the receiver and locate
one of the extender pads near the source IR receive panel.
Occasionally it may be difcult or even impossible to orient the
receiver unit such that it can be “seen” (face-to-face) by the A/V
equipment you wish to control, in this case please use the supplied
IR extender accessory.
How To Use The IR Extender Accessory
The IR extender accessory connects to the receiver through its
own special connector plug. The extender accessory emits an IR
signal, blasting your A/V equipment with the remote signal. To use
the IR extender accessory, follow the instructions below:
1. Plug the IR extender into the receiver rear panel.
2. Orient the end of the IR extender so that it points in the general
direction of the IR sensors of the source AV equipment you wish
to control. Use a piece of provided fastener strip to secure the IR
extender pad in its position.
3. Position the RF transmitter so that your remote control signal
can strike the IR window on the front of the unit. To use your
remote control, point it at the front of the receiver.

E. Troubleshooting, Care and Maintenance
Please read this owner’s manual carefully and follow the steps
described in it. If you still have difculties, consult the following
table. It will guide you through the most common problems and
their solutions.
Problem Possible Solution
Remote control
extender does
not work
Check the path between the receiver and
the audio/video source and clear any
obstructions.
Check to see if the IR window on the front of
the receiver is blocked.
Make sure the IR extender accessory is
properly located on the A/V equipment you
wish to control. (see section on “How to
use the IR Remote Control extender” in this
manual)
Adjust remote control antennas.
Note: Clean the outside plastic housing with a soft cloth lightly
moistened with mild soap and water. Never use any abrasive
scouring powder or solvent.
