IR REMOTE CONFIGURATION

Setting the IR Remote Channel on the RMT-4IR

In the event that IR commands from other remote controls conflict with the supplied IR Remote Control Unit, changing the remote IR channel will fix this issue. The IR Remote Control Unit has a bank of DIP switches for setting the IR channel.

The DIP Switch bank on the IR Remote Control Unit is located underneath the battery cover.

The IR channel selected on the IR Remote Control Unit must match the IR channel assigned to the 4x1 3GSDI Switcher. For example, if you set both DIP switches on the remote to the down position (IR channel 1), you must set the 4x1 3GSDI Switcher to use IR channel 1.

See page 9 on how to change the IR channel on the 4x1 3GSDI Switcher.
