Niles MicroFlasher IRC-2P Original operating instructions
IRC-2P
SPECIFICATIONS
IR System
Compatible with virtually all brands of
remotes using carrier frequencies between
20 and 455 kHz.
IR Transmitting Range
Up to 4 feet (Typically mounts to the IR
remote sensor window of an audio/video
component).
IR Transmitting Angle
Transmits in a “pinpoint” transmission pat-
tern (the off-axis power drops off very
rapidly).
Unit Dimensions
5/16” Wide x 11/16" High x 3/16" Long.
Mounting
Supplied with self-adhesive tape attached
to the unit.
Wiring Requirements
Supplied with 10 feet of 2-conductor 24
gauge with a 3.5mm mono mini-plug.
Substitute an 18 gauge 2-conductor wire for
distances ranging from 10 to 20 feet and a
16 gauge 2-conductor wire for up to 200
feet.
IR Blocking Cover Dimensions
2" Wide x 2" High x 1/4" Deep.
Optical IR Feedback Loop
If there is an IR sensor and an IR flasher
located within the same room—an "optical
IR feedback loop" can occur. This occurs
when the IR output from a flasher uninten-
tionally reaches an IR sensor located within
the same room. The IR commands are
eventually forwarded back to the IR flasher
and the whole process endlessly repeats
itself. This effect is similar to acoustical
feedback (the howling or whistling sound
heard in a P.A. system when the micro-
phone is placed too close to the speaker).
The optical IR feedback loop can be elimi-
nated by one of the two following methods:
1. Place the IR blocking cover over the
IRC-2P.
2. Reduce the flasher output until normal
operation resumes. This is done by turning
the Flasher Level Adjust (located on the
Main System Unit) counter-clockwise.
If problems persist, refer to the user's
manual for the Main System Unit or con-
tact your local Niles dealer.
We recommend connecting IRC-2P
MicroFlashers to the “variable” flasher
output terminals on Niles Main System
Units. The flasher level controls should
be set by first starting at the minimum
(fully counter-clockwise) position and
increasing the output (clockwise) until
the equipment responds reliably. A max-
imum of four IRC-2P MicroFlashers or
two IRC-1 High-Output flooding flashers
may be connected to a single flasher out-
put terminal.
For main system units that enable you to
adjust the flasher level, try adjusting the
flasher level up or down (some compo-
nents’ sensors are overloaded by too
strong a command from the IRC-2P). If
the operation of the component
improves when the flasher level is all the
way down, but it is still not perfect, try
moving the IRC-2P so that it is farther
away, or off to the side of the remote
sensor window. If adjusting the level
down makes no change, or makes opera-
tion even worse, return the level to the
full power position (clockwise).
TROUBLESHOOTING
This troubleshooting section addresses
the most common problems that pre-
vent an infrared flasher from operating
correctly.
Testing the Remote Control
Test that the hand-held remote control
operates the component when you
point it at the front panel (check the
batteries if it does not).
Main System Unit Power Supply
Check that the red power light on the
Main System Unit is lit (the wall adapter
should be plugged into an active AC
wall outlet and the wall adapter has to
be supplying 12V DC).
Adjusting the Flasher Level
WARNING! IRC-2P MICROFLASHERS
MAY BE DAMAGED BY EXCESSIVE
FLASHER LEVEL OUTPUT FROM THE
MAIN SYSTEM UNIT!
Mounting the IR Blocking Cover
Make sure the mounting surface is clean
before installing the blocking cover. You
may improve the appearance by trim-
ming the cover with scissors to exactly
cover the remote sensor window. Mount
the blocking cover (using the self-adhe-
sive tape) so that the IRC-2P and the IR
remote sensor window of the component
are completely enclosed (See Figure 3).
To prevent your A/V component from
receiving IR commands from sources
other than the IRC-2P, the IR blocking
cover should be used.
Using the IR Blocking Cover
The plastic IR blocking cover is designed
to cover both the IRC-2P and the IR sen-
sor window of the component. The
blocking cover serves two functions:
1. It ensures that a component receives IR
signals solely fromthe IRC-2P.
2. It prevents the IR output of the IRC-2P
from radiating out into the room.

window of your audio/video component
without disfiguring the appearance of
your equipment.

that utilize a 3.5mm mono mini-jack.
Tools Required
• Scissors (for IR blocking cover only) infrared system. Consult the operating
manual of the Niles Main System Unit or
consult your local Niles dealer for more
information.
Increasing the Wire Length
If the connecting wire is too short to
reach the Main System Unit, anadditional
length of wire may be spliced in to extend it.
Cut the flasher wire approximately six inches
from the plug end, strip off 1/4”, and connect
your additional wiring between the ends of the
original flasher wire. For distances between
10 and 20 feet upgrade the original wire
to an 18 gauge 2-conductor wire. For dis-
tances of up to 200 feet a 16 gauge two-
conductor wire should be used.
INSTALLATION & OPERATION
Locate the IR remote sensor window of
each component you want to control. The
sensor is usually located behind its own
plastic window on the front of the compo-
nent. On some equipment, the sensor
may be hidden behind the plastic bezel
covering the front panel displays. A bright
flashlight is helpful for locating sensors on
equipment with very darkplastic bezels.
Make sure the mounting surface is clean-
ed and degreased with the proper cleaner
before installing the IRC-2P. Attach the
IRC-2P directly over the IR remote
sensor window of the component using its
self-adhesive tape. The adhesive is
strong enough to hold the IRC-2P firmly
in place yet it removes easily and with-
out residue if needed. Route the con-
necting two-conductor wire to the Main
System Unit and plug it into one of the flash-
er outputs (See Figure 2). Coil any excess
wire and tie it in place.
Connecting Multiple Flashers
It's possible to connect more than one
flasher from a single output on a Niles
Because of its discrete appearance some
installers have mounted the IRC-2P to
the cabinet or wall (with its LED pointed
at the remote sensor window of the
audio/video component). There are two
challenges which must be overcome to
successfully use the IRC-2P in this
fashion:
1. The LED of the IRC-2P faces in one
direction only, therefore you must mount
a strip ofself-adhesive tape on the side of
the housing opposite the LED face. Use
the extra pieces of double-sided adhesive
tape supplied with the IRC-2P.
2.Because the IRC-2P was designed pri-
marily for pin-point relaying of IR com-
mands, mounting directly to your compo-
nent's IR remote sensor window, the effec-
tive range is limited to 4 feet. Niles also
manufactures high-output flashers, offering
greater range and flooding angle, for these
types of applications. Contact your Niles
dealer for more information.
INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
The IRC-2P is typically mounted to the
infrared remote sensor window of an
audio/video component using the
attached self-adhesive pad (See Figure
1). The IRC-2P directs its infrared output
towards the sensor, not out into the
room.
Route the connecting wires close to the
IR remote sensor window. That way, the
minimum amount of wire will show. If
the component has a tray or door that
opens, you may have to route the wire
from the top or bottom of the compo-
nent. Make sure any loose connecting
wire is taped securely in place and out of
the way.

devices, and multi-zone keypad systems
that utilize a 3.5mm mono mini-jack.
Tools Required
• Scissors (for IR blocking cover only) infrared system. Consult the operating
manual of the Niles Main System Unit or
consult your local Niles dealer for more
information.
Increasing the Wire Length
If the connecting wire is too short to
reach the Main System Unit, anadditional
length of wire may be spliced in to extend it.
Cut the flasher wire approximately six inches
from the plug end, strip off 1/4”, and connect
your additional wiring between the ends of the
original flasher wire. For distances between
10 and 20 feet upgrade the original wire
to an 18 gauge 2-conductor wire. For dis-
tances of up to 200 feet a 16 gauge two-
conductor wire should be used.
INSTALLATION & OPERATION
Locate the IR remote sensor window of
each component you want to control. The
sensor is usually located behind its own
plastic window on the front of the compo-
nent. On some equipment, the sensor
may be hidden behind the plastic bezel
covering the front panel displays. A bright
flashlight is helpful for locating sensors on
equipment with very darkplastic bezels.
Make sure the mounting surface is clean-
ed and degreased with the proper cleaner
before installing the IRC-2P. Attach the
IRC-2P directly over the IR remote
sensor window of the component using its
self-adhesive tape. The adhesive is
strong enough to hold the IRC-2P firmly
in place yet it removes easily and with-
out residue if needed. Route the con-
necting two-conductor wire to the Main
System Unit and plug it into one of the flash-
er outputs (See Figure 2). Coil any excess
wire and tie it in place.
Connecting Multiple Flashers
It's possible to connect more than one
flasher from a single output on a Niles
Because of its discrete appearance some
installers have mounted the IRC-2P to
the cabinet or wall (with its LED pointed
at the remote sensor window of the
audio/video component). There are two
challenges which must be overcome to
successfully use the IRC-2P in this
fashion:
1. The LED of the IRC-2P faces in one
direction only, therefore you must mount
a strip ofself-adhesive tape on the side of
the housing opposite the LED face. Use
the extra pieces of double-sided adhesive
tape supplied with the IRC-2P.
2.Because the IRC-2P was designed pri-
marily for pin-point relaying of IR com-
mands, mounting directly to your compo-
nent's IR remote sensor window, the effec-
tive range is limited to 4 feet. Niles also
manufactures high-output flashers, offering
greater range and flooding angle, for these
types of applications. Contact your Niles
dealer for more information.
INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
The IRC-2P is typically mounted to the
infrared remote sensor window of an
audio/video component using the
attached self-adhesive pad (See Figure
1). The IRC-2P directs its infrared output
towards the sensor, not out into the
room.
Route the connecting wires close to the
IR remote sensor window. That way, the
minimum amount of wire will show. If
the component has a tray or door that
opens, you may have to route the wire
from the top or bottom of the compo-
nent. Make sure any loose connecting
wire is taped securely in place and out of
the way.
IRC-2P MicroFlasher™
INTRODUCTION
The IRC-2P is a miniature panel-mount
IR flasher. It is one of three elements
needed to complete a remote control
extender system:
1. Remote Sensors
2. Main System Units/Connection Hubs
3. Infrared Flashers
When an IR remote sensor receives a
command from a hand-held remote con-
trol, it sends a corresponding electronic
signal through a wire to the Main System
Unit. Here, the Main System Unit cleans
and amplifies the electronic signal.
Finally, the Main System Unit outputs
the signal to the IR flasher which trans-
mits the infrared command to the
audio/video component you wish to
control.
The IRC-2P sends the IR commands via
flashes of infrared light in a precise
pinpoint pattern from its single infrared
• The IRC-2P is equipped with a 3.5mm
mono mini-plug. This provides you with
easy hookup for fast, trouble-free instal-
lations.
• The IRC-2P has a strip of self-adhesive
tape for quick and secure mounting to any
hard, clean,dry surface.
• The IRC-2P is supplied with an ample
10feet of connecting wire.
• The IRC-2P is supplied with an
infrared blocking cover. This is useful if
you have several identical TV’s (or
audio/video components), all using the
same remote control and the same IR
commands. The combination of an
IRC-2P with a blocking cover and a
Niles infrared routing device will allow
you to change channels on one TV
without changing another. See your
Niles dealer for more information.

IR Blocking Cover Dimensions
2" Wide x 2" High x 1/4" Deep.
Optical IR Feedback Loop
If there is an IR sensor and an IR flasher
located within the same room—an "optical
IR feedback loop" can occur. This occurs
when the IR output from a flasher uninten-
tionally reaches an IR sensor located within
the same room. The IR commands are
eventually forwarded back to the IR flasher
and the whole process endlessly repeats
itself. This effect is similar to acoustical
feedback (the howling or whistling sound
heard in a P.A. system when the micro-
phone is placed too close to the speaker).
The optical IR feedback loop can be elimi-
nated by one of the two following methods:
1. Place the IR blocking cover over the
IRC-2P.
2. Reduce the flasher output until normal
operation resumes. This is done by turning
the Flasher Level Adjust (located on the
Main System Unit) counter-clockwise.
If problems persist, refer to the user's
manual for the Main System Unit or con-
tact your local Niles dealer.
We recommend connecting IRC-2P
MicroFlashers to the “variable” flasher
output terminals on Niles Main System
Units. The flasher level controls should
be set by first starting at the minimum
(fully counter-clockwise) position and
increasing the output (clockwise) until
the equipment responds reliably. A max-
imum of four IRC-2P MicroFlashers or
two IRC-1 High-Output flooding flashers
may be connected to a single flasher out-
put terminal.
For main system units that enable you to
adjust the flasher level, try adjusting the
flasher level up or down (some compo-
nents’ sensors are overloaded by too
strong a command from the IRC-2P). If
the operation of the component
improves when the flasher level is all the
way down, but it is still not perfect, try
moving the IRC-2P so that it is farther
away, or off to the side of the remote
sensor window. If adjusting the level
down makes no change, or makes opera-
tion even worse, return the level to the
full power position (clockwise).
TROUBLESHOOTING
This troubleshooting section addresses
the most common problems that pre-
vent an infrared flasher from operating
correctly.
Testing the Remote Control
Test that the hand-held remote control
operates the component when you
point it at the front panel (check the
batteries if it does not).
Main System Unit Power Supply
Check that the red power light on the
Main System Unit is lit (the wall adapter
should be plugged into an active AC
wall outlet and the wall adapter has to
be supplying 12V DC).
Adjusting the Flasher Level
WARNING! IRC-2P MICROFLASHERS
MAY BE DAMAGED BY EXCESSIVE
FLASHER LEVEL OUTPUT FROM THE
MAIN SYSTEM UNIT!
Mounting the IR Blocking Cover
Make sure the mounting surface is clean
before installing the blocking cover. You
may improve the appearance by trim-
ming the cover with scissors to exactly
cover the remote sensor window. Mount
the blocking cover (using the self-adhe-
sive tape) so that the IRC-2P and the IR
remote sensor window of the component
are completely enclosed (See Figure 3).
To prevent your A/V component from
receiving IR commands from sources
other than the IRC-2P, the IR blocking
cover should be used.
Using the IR Blocking Cover
The plastic IR blocking cover is designed
to cover both the IRC-2P and the IR sen-
sor window of the component. The
blocking cover serves two functions:
1. It ensures that a component receives IR
signals solely fromthe IRC-2P.
2. It prevents the IR output of the IRC-2P
from radiating out into the room.

If problems persist, refer to the user's
manual for the Main System Unit or con-
tact your local Niles dealer.
We recommend connecting IRC-2P
MicroFlashers to the “variable” flasher
output terminals on Niles Main System
Units. The flasher level controls should
be set by first starting at the minimum
(fully counter-clockwise) position and
increasing the output (clockwise) until
the equipment responds reliably. A max-
imum of four IRC-2P MicroFlashers or
two IRC-1 High-Output flooding flashers
may be connected to a single flasher out-
put terminal.
For main system units that enable you to
adjust the flasher level, try adjusting the
flasher level up or down (some compo-
nents’ sensors are overloaded by too
strong a command from the IRC-2P). If
the operation of the component
improves when the flasher level is all the
way down, but it is still not perfect, try
moving the IRC-2P so that it is farther
away, or off to the side of the remote
sensor window. If adjusting the level
down makes no change, or makes opera-
tion even worse, return the level to the
full power position (clockwise).
TROUBLESHOOTING
This troubleshooting section addresses
the most common problems that pre-
vent an infrared flasher from operating
correctly.
Testing the Remote Control
Test that the hand-held remote control
operates the component when you
point it at the front panel (check the
batteries if it does not).
Main System Unit Power Supply
Check that the red power light on the
Main System Unit is lit (the wall adapter
should be plugged into an active AC
wall outlet and the wall adapter has to
be supplying 12V DC).

Mounting the IR Blocking Cover
Make sure the mounting surface is clean
before installing the blocking cover. You
may improve the appearance by trim-
ming the cover with scissors to exactly
cover the remote sensor window. Mount
the blocking cover (using the self-adhe-
sive tape) so that the IRC-2P and the IR
remote sensor window of the component
are completely enclosed (See Figure 3).
To prevent your A/V component from
receiving IR commands from sources
other than the IRC-2P, the IR blocking
cover should be used.
Using the IR Blocking Cover
The plastic IR blocking cover is designed
to cover both the IRC-2P and the IR sen-
sor window of the component. The
blocking cover serves two functions:
1. It ensures that a component receives IR
signals solely fromthe IRC-2P.
2. It prevents the IR output of the IRC-2P
from radiating out into the room.

SPECIFICATIONS
IR System
Compatible with virtually all brands of
remotes using carrier frequencies between
20 and 455 kHz.
IR Transmitting Range
Up to 4 feet (Typically mounts to the IR
remote sensor window of an audio/video
component).
IR Transmitting Angle
Transmits in a “pinpoint” transmission pat-
tern (the off-axis power drops off very
rapidly).
Unit Dimensions
5/16” Wide x 11/16" High x 3/16" Long.
Mounting
Supplied with self-adhesive tape attached
to the unit.
Wiring Requirements
Supplied with 10 feet of 2-conductor 24
gauge with a 3.5mm mono mini-plug.
Substitute an 18 gauge 2-conductor wire for
distances ranging from 10 to 20 feet and a
16 gauge 2-conductor wire for up to 200
feet.
IR Blocking Cover Dimensions
2" Wide x 2" High x 1/4" Deep.
Optical IR Feedback Loop
If there is an IR sensor and an IR flasher
located within the same room—an "optical
IR feedback loop" can occur. This occurs
when the IR output from a flasher uninten-
tionally reaches an IR sensor located within
the same room. The IR commands are
eventually forwarded back to the IR flasher
and the whole process endlessly repeats
itself. This effect is similar to acoustical
feedback (the howling or whistling sound
heard in a P.A. system when the micro-
phone is placed too close to the speaker).
The optical IR feedback loop can be elimi-
nated by one of the two following methods:
1. Place the IR blocking cover over the
IRC-2P.
2. Reduce the flasher output until normal
operation resumes. This is done by turning
the Flasher Level Adjust (located on the
Main System Unit) counter-clockwise.
If problems persist, refer to the user's
manual for the Main System Unit or con-
tact your local Niles dealer.
