The Optional Expander

You can use the Unifier as you would your other remote controls. It transmits very powerful line-of-sight output using infrared light commands (invisible to the naked eye). When you point the Unifier at the components, expect the range to be between 30 and 50 feet. When the remote is not pointed in the general direction of the components, the range will vary (depending on reflective surfaces, lighting, etc.).

However, the Unifier also sends radio signals in every direction. By purchasing the optional Expander (a radio receiver), you can operate your equipment with the Unifier 50 to 100 feet away (through walls, doors, cabinets, inside or outside). Since the Expander picks up the Unifier's radio signals from any direction, regardless of distance, the Unifier doesn’t have to be pointed!

Nothing has to be done to the Unifier for this feature to work. Every time you press a button on the Unifier, it sends both a standard infrared command AND a radio signal. If you install the Expander kit, the MRF-100 will receive the Unifier’s radio signals and translate them into the infrared commands that control your components.

Note: The Unifier's radio signals will not control components directly. You must have an Expander to receive the Unifier's radio signals. Components

that came with "no pointing" radio remote controls cannot be operated by the Unifier unless the component can

be switched to standard infrared control via its internal menus. Some remote control ceiling fans are radio only and cannot be operated by the Unifier.
