The BCIRS Sensors can be mounted on any surface using any of the Mounting Brackets (2) and
screws, included.To ensure proper operation, observe the following installation rules:
a. Position the IR Sensors with their front panel receptors facing the entire area of transmitter operation. If this is a wide area, angle the receptors to cover the maximum area range.
Note:The IR sensors will need to be positioned differently for each environment. During installation, power up the Bogen Enhancer System and have one person walk around the desired location, with the transmitters on, while another person positions the IR Sensors for greatest range of mobility.
b. Since the unit utilizes infrared light reflected off of room surfaces, do not mount the sensors near a black ceiling, wall, or heavy curtains as they may limit the range by eliminating such reflections.
c.Although the unit can be used in most brightly lit rooms, it works best if bright lights do not shine directly on the sensors. (Note: System is not designed for use in high ambient light conditions such as out- doors in sunlight or on stage with strong stage lighting.)
d. Never cover the IR Sensors as this will disrupt normal operation. If they become dirty, clean with a soft cloth. Make sure the sensors are not obstructed and always have a clear line of sight to the transmitters.
e. Position sensors and wires away from Plasma TVs and other equipment that may produce high levels of electrical and RF interference.
Note:Additional BCIRS IR Sensors can be added using the BCYA Multiple Sensor Adapter which allows multiple sen- sors to be connected to each input.
