If you use the infra-red remote control of another piece of video equipment, these infra-red signals will be passed on via the RX 579 infra- red module to the relevant appliance, such as a satellite-receiver, the audio and video signals of which are being transmitted. In order to allow this equipment, e.g. the satellite receiver, to be controlled via the remote control to select programmes, the infra-red transmitter on the infra-red module must be glued onto the infra-red receiver of the equipment that is being remote-controlled.
When it is being glued on, attention must be paid to ensuring that the "infra-red eye” of the unit is not completely covered over, so as to ensure that direct control with the original remote-control unit is still possible.
The extension module possesses two infra-red diodes for controlling two different units, e.g. a satellite received and a video-recorder.
Establish the position of the infra-red receiver with the aid of the operating instructions for the unit that is to be controlled; if it is not possible to locate it exactly, a little trial-and-error will be necessary. You will thus have the possibility of controlling the unit, the signals of which are to be transmitted, with the standard remote-c.
