IR Sensor Placement

The placement of the IR sensor can be crucial to proper operation of the system. A flexible IR sensor is provided to make it easier to achieve reliable operation.

In most applications, the IR sensor may be installed on top of the cabinet. However, tall and/or dark colored ceilings can absorb the IR signal. If inconsistent operation is encountered there are two alternatives.

One, the flexible IR sensor eye can be placed so that it gives the sensor "line of sight" to the signal from the remote controller. Often this merely involves placing the IR sensor so that it peeks up over the top of the cabinet. It doesn't have to be much, just enough to give "line of sight".

Two, an IR sensor extension cord can be used to position the IR sensor in the cabinet near to the other remote controlled units. (For example, near to the VCR or DVD player)

Install Light Dimmer Module (Optional)

With the dimmer option installed cabinet lighting can be switched on or off or dimmed using the left buttons on the systems remote control.

To install the optional dimmer:

1.Plug 115VAC lighting into the back of the Light Dimmer Module.

2.Plug the other end of Dimmer Module cord into a 115VAC grounded receptacle on motor assembly.

CAUTION: The Dimmer is for 120 volt incandescent or Halogen lamps of at least 25 watts and should not to exceed 300 watts total.

The system also provides the option of creating and saving two different lighting "scenes". Please refer to the Remote Control instructions for information on how to configure "scenes".
