A double IR Emitter cable is included with models

WD‑52527 and WD-62527. A Quadruple IR Emitter cable is included with models WD-52528 and WD-62528.

The emitters connected to these jacks are used by the NetCommand system to control other devices such as VCRs, DVD players, Cable boxes and Satellite receivers.

1.Connect the plug end of the supplied IR Emitter Cable to either one of the IR Output NetCommand jacks on the TV back panel.

2.Run the cable for each of the emitter ends under, along side or over the top of each device to be controlled to the area of the front where the remote control sensor is located.

3.Place the emitter end in front of the remote control sensor of the device to be controlled. The emitter bulb should face the remote control sensor. This bulb emits infrared light in a cone shaped pattern. The bulb needs to be placed far enough from the remote control sensor to allow the cone pattern to include the sensor.

The remote control sensor is usually behind the plastic window of the front display panel. It is sometimes visible when you look through the display plastic using a flashlight and is normally a round or square cutout

behind the plastic. If you cannot see the sensor and the device’s Owner’s Guide does not specify the location, you can find it by using the device’s remote control. Hold the remote about 1/2 inch from the front of the device. Starting from one end of the display window plastic, press the POWER button.

If the device does not respond, move the remote control 1 inch toward the center and try again. Repeat this until the device responds. Note this location then start over from the other end of the display window plastic, repeating until the device responds again. The remote control sensor will be somewhere between these two positions. This is usually enough accuracy for the placement of the IR emitters.

•With some devices, the emitter will work better facing downward from the top of the device. Some experimentation may be needed.

•The emitter end being used can be secured in place using double stick tape.

•If you are not going to be using all emitter ends, place the unused ends behind the devices so that they cannot send signals to the remote control sensors.

IMPORTANT

If a single emitter end can be placed in a position that will operate more than one device, do not use a separate emitter end for the additional device. A single device receiving remote control signals from too many emitters or remote controls may not respond at all.
