INSTALLATION
Set the DIP switches to the desired mode, using the chart below. Check your settings carefully to be sure
they are correct.
NOTE:
Do not connect the power supply until all switches are set & all other connections are made.
Phantom Power Connections
Some existing installations may have only 2 wires (such as coax) going to a remote room. Fig. 3 illustrates
Phantom Power connections in a basic system:
• Although a 780-10 is shown, other Xantech 3-wire IR Receivers may be used.
• In each case, the OUTPUT and GND leads of
the IR receiver are jumpered together and
connected, through the inter-room cable, to
the GND terminal of the 792. The +12V lead
is connected to the IN terminal of the 792.
• Additional 780's or other Xantech IR Receiv-
ers may be wired in parallel at the IN and GND
terminals of the 792, up to a maximum of
three. More than this may cause unreliable
results.
• If you have more than three IR receivers, connect additional 792-10's as shown in Fig. 4
NOTE: Phantom power mode is not recommended unless faced with an existing coax or other 2-wire
situation. For new construction, always pull three wires and use the normal 3-wire connections for best IR
operation.
Multiple-Emitter High Current Operation
The high current output capability of the 792-10
allows up to 100 single or 100 dual emitters to be
driven. Fig. 5 illustrates the necessary connec-
tions:
• The IR OUT jack of the 792-10 is connected to
multiple 790-00 Connecting Blocks as shown.
(The output of the 792-10 is also available
between the IR OUT and GND screw termi-
nals,intheeventawiredconnectionisneeded.)
• Set the DIP switches to the 3-Wire High Cur-
rent mode. Refer to Fig 2.
• A high current power supply, model 782-00, is used to supply the high peak currents required.
MOUNTING - Holes are provided in the end flanges of the 792-10 for mounting. Use the 2 screws provided
to secure it to any flat surface.
NOTE: With any of these systems, be sure the power supply is plugged into an un-switched AC outlet. This
maintains the IR system in "standby" operation so that power-on commands can be sent to the controlled
equipment.
