AIR5

Tabletop IR

Receiver w/Plug

Introduction

The ATON AIR5 is a miniature ‘plasma-friendly’ IR receiver designed to sit on a shelf, cabinet or any flat surface. This receiver uses advanced IR filtering technol- ogy which allows it to work even in areas that receive normally harmful interference (near plasma TV’s, compact flourescent lights, etc.).

Features (Refer to Figure 1)

•3.5mm Quad Plug Accommodates STATUS, IR, +12VDC, & GND

•‘Plasma-Friendly’ Technology Helps Block Plasma TV Interference

•IR Lens Rejects Visible Light Interference

•Internal Crosshatch Shield Inhibits EMI/ESI Interference

•STATUS Indicator: Green LED for System On/Off Indication

•ACTIVITY Indicator: Blue LED Indicates IR Signal Activity

Limited Warranty

ATON* warrants to the purchaser/end user (“you”) that the AIR5 is to be free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of five (5) years from date of purchase (the “Warranty Period”). This warranty is transferable to subsequent owners of the product as long as the original proof of purchase is retained. If you discover a defect in material or workmanship within the Warranty Period, you can obtain warranty ser- vice by contacting ATON during the Warranty Period at (859)-422-7137 or service@atonhome.com. If ATON determines that the product is in fact defective, ATON shall, at its option, repair or replace the product free of charge to you.

This warranty shall not apply to equipment (a) not manufactured by ATON, (b) to equipment which was improperly installed, (c) which was repaired or altered by persons other than ATON or its authorized repre- sentatives or subject to unauthorized tampering, alteration or modification, (d) damaged due to misuse, negligence, accident, acts of God (including, but not limited to, excess moisture, insects, lightning, flood, electrical surge, tornado, earthquake, or other catastrophic events beyond ATON’s control), or (e) subject to improper operation, maintenance or storage or unreasonable use. The foregoing warranties do not cover reimbursement for labor, transportation, removal, installation or other expenses which may be incurred in connection with repair or replacement. The foregoing remedies shall be your exclusive remedies for any breach of warranty.

Further, the foregoing warranty does not extend to equipment sold, but not manufactured by, ATON (“Third Party Products”). With respect to any Third Party Products, the warranty for such product shall be as pro- vided by the manufacturer of such product, who will also be responsible for warranty service, and ATON will pass through to you any transferable warranty actually extended to ATON by the manufacturer.

THE FOREGOING WARRANTIES ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER EXPRESSED AND IMPLIED WARRANTIES. ATON EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL SUCH OTHER WARRANTIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NON- INFRINGEMENT. Notwithstanding the above, where applicable, if you qualify as a “consumer” under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, then you may be entitled to any implied warranties allowed by law for the Warranty Period. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied Limited Warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you.

ATTENTION: TO OUR VALUED CONSUMERS

Valid proof of purchase is required for all warranty services. Warranty service requests made without proof of date of purchase will be denied. Please keep the original sales receipt for your records and send a copy to request warranty service.

This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.

Specifications:

•Requires 12VDC power supply, termination block and IR emitters for IR operation.

•Mounting: Sits on any flat surface. A special pad protects the surface on which the AIR5 is placed in addition to providing anti-skid action.

•Power: 12VDC @ 6 mA

•Carrier Frequency Acceptance Range: 28kHz to 90kHz.

•Control Range: Up to 35 feet, depending on remote strength and ambient noise conditions

•Control Angle: +/- 50 degrees off-axis

•Room-to-Room Wire Recommendations: Cat-5

•Maximum recommended cable length: 1200 feet using Cat-5

•Dimensions: 3 3/16" (81mm) W x 1 1/8" (28mm) H x 1 1/16" (27mm) D

B: Multi-Room System

Figure 3 shows an example of multiple ATON IR Receivers in a multi-room system.

1.Pull Cat-5 from each room (home runs) to the AIB4 terminator near the controlled components.

NOTE: MAX DISTANCE of ALL Wire Runs is 1200 ft using Cat-5 cable. When using long lengths, the dipswitch on the AIB4 must be set to the NET ON position and a 500 Ohm resistor must be used.

2.Connect IR receivers in each room to the Cat-5 runs as shown, using the terminal strips supplied.

3.Connect the Cat-5 wires to the correct location on the AIB4 connection terminals (+12VDC, IR, STATUS, and GND).

4.Plug the AIE1 and AIE2 Emitters into the AIB4.

5.Set the DIP switches to LP ON and NET ON.

6.Plug the local AIR5 IR Receiver into the IR RECEIVER jack.

7.Plug in the PS2 12VDC Power Supply.

8.IR signals sent to the IR receivers will pass through the AIB4 and control the equipment.

STATUS Brightness

Figure 3 also shows how an external resistor can be added to reduce the bright- ness of the Status LEDs on ATON IR receivers. In this example, a PS2 12VDC Power Supply is used as the voltage source to indicate ON/OFF status of an A/V Receiver. Choose a resistor value that achieves the brightness you desire (about 2.2k to 12k, 1/8W). Connect it in series with the STATUS lead on each IR receiver, as shown.
