Integra DTR-4.5 Using a Multiroom Kit with a Cabinet, Controlling Out-of-range Components

Zone 2—Continued

Using a Multiroom Kit with a Cabinet

In the following diagram, an IR receiver picks up the infrared signals from the remote controller and feeds them to the AV receiver in the cabinet via the connecting block.

•On the Remote Setup menu, set the IR IN Position set- ting to “Main” (see page 61).

Controlling Out-of-range Components

If another AV component is out of range of its remote controller, you can use a commercially available IR emitter to retransmit the remote controller signals received at the AV receiver’s IR IN, as shown below.

Connect the IR emitter to the AV receiver’s IR OUT, and place the IR emitter in front of the other AV component’s remote control sensor (usually located on the front panel), as shown below. See the instructions supplied with the IR emitter.
