SYSTEM CONFIGURATIONS

CONFIGURATION 12 – IR REPEATING FOR CONTROL OF LOCAL COMPONENTS

An IR Repeating System can be integrated into a room connected to the Niles ZR-4630 (see Figure 17). This enables a single IR Sensor (installed in that room) to control local components with a hand-held IR remote control.

In Figure 17, a Niles IR Sensor is connected to a Niles MSU250 for control of local components and to a Niles ZR-4630 for control of distributed components. A Niles SPK-1 Automated Speaker Level A-B Switcher switches the front speakers in the Master Bedroom from the ZR-4630 distributed sound system to the local surround-sound receiver system when the local system is activated.

Important Note: Use of an identical brand and type component in both the local and the distributed system (i.e., a Sony CD player in both systems) is not supported by this configuration. Individual operation of identical components may not be possible. IR blockers included with Niles MicroFlashers™ may be required to prevent IR feedback when using this configuration.
