4.3 Controlling Margay with Remote

You can control Margay with the remote control or with RS232 commands.

Remote control

The remote control projects a series of IR (infra- red) pulses to the Margay for control. Aim the remote control at the screen and press MENU. The main menu should be visible, if the lamp is on.

For a complete list of all remote actions, see 7.2 “Remote Control Buttons” on page 116.

Beeper

If Beeper is checked in the Miscellaneous menu, the Margay will make a beep each time a remote but- ton is pressed (and the Margay receives the signal).

If the Margay cannot perform the requested action, it will beep three times, a triple beep. Triple beep will happen whether Beeper is checked on not.

If the remote doesn’t work

•The batteries in the remote are dead or installed wrong.

•The remote was not aimed at the screen.

•Something is blocking the IR receiver in the Mar- gay.

•IR remote action was disabled by an RS232 com- mand.

The remote control has a large spread of its IR radiation. It is difficult from a distance to control only one Margay in a wall. Step closer.
