IR extension module
An infrared extension module allows you to control
traditional infrared equipment over a radio frequency
network.
Radio frequency
A radio technology that allows you to control components
not in direct line-of-sight, such as through walls or other
obstacles. There are two types of RF used in remote
controls: RF to component, and RF to infrared.
Adjustable antenna
A separate adjustable antenna determines the most
reliable position of an RF extender and therefore enables
virtually interference-free operation of multi-room
systems or devices in concealed environments. The
antenna has a built-in interference indicator that blinks
when detecting an other RF device or other interference
source (e.g. microwave oven). The harder the indicator
blinks, the less reliable the position of the antenna.
RF interference indicator
An interference indicator is a red blinking light that
indicates the presence of interference sources in the
home, that can interfere with the operation of an RF
extender. The indicator is built into an antenna, and starts
blinking as soon as the antenna picks up interference
from RF devices, besides the RF extender, or other sources
e.g microwave oven. The harder the light blinks, the less
reliable the antenna is positioned, therefore, the less
reliable the RF extender will work.
