SYSTEM DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
The Niles iC2 System is a highly flexible tool that allows system designers to create home theater systems that will delight customers. Simplicity in operation is at the core of the iC2 System’s design. Features like HDMI video switching surround receivers and televisions,
To fully understand the system configurations, it’s important to understand the basic control sec- tions of the
IR OUTPUT PORTS
IR (Infrared) codes are stored in the
1.The outputs are labeled SRC1 through SRC6, TV/7 and RCV/8. If the TV is to be controlled via IR codes, then the IR Output TV/7 port should be used. However, if the TV will be controlled via RS232, then the TV/7 IR output can be used to control an alternate IR source. These IR outputs are dedicated and routed, meaning IR codes stored for source number 3 (i.e. a DVD player) can only be emitted from the IR output port labeled SRC3. RCV/8 can be used either for the receiver in the home theater or a source number 8.
RS232 OUTPUT PORTS
RS232 is a serial device control protocol that allows sources to be controlled via a
be used to control an alternate RS232 source. These RS232 outputs are dedicated and routed, meaning RS232 codes stored for source number 3 (i.e. a DVD player) can only be emitted from the RS232 output port labeled SRC3. RCV/8 can be used either for the receiver in the home theater or a source number 8.
