•No repairs to the unit(s) should be attempted by the customer.

•NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for remote control security devices in accordance with the specifications in sub parts C and E of part 15 of FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that Radio Frequency Energy does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on.

Extension Unit: The Extension Unit converts the infrared signals from your remote control into long-range RF signals that are sent to the base unit. The LED lamp indicates that incoming signals are being detected.

Base Unit: The Base Unit converts the RF sig- nals from the extension unit back to the infrared sig- nals used to control your components. The unit con- tains an antenna, power cord, and a jack for the Infrared Extension. The LED light indicates that a sig- nal is being received. The Base Unit can be placed up to 100 feet away from the Extension Unit.

Infrared Extension: The Infrared Extension can

be used in situations where the Base Unit can not be placed in front of the component(s)

it is controlling. This device consists of an Infrared diode connected to a 4 ft. extension

wire and plug.
