Connecting the DPC-7.4—Continued

Controlling AV Components that are Out of Range

You can use the following multi-room kits to control the DPC-7.4 when it’s out of range of the remote controller:

Integra Multi-Room System (IR Remote Controller Exten- sion System)

Multiroom AV distribution and control systems such as those made by Niles® and Xantech®.

Controlling Other Out-of-range AV Components

If another AV component is out of range of its remote con- troller, you can use a commercially available IR emitter to retransmit the remote controller signals received at the DPC- 7.4’s IR IN, as shown below.

If the DPC-7.4 is located in another room, installed in a cab- inet, or out of range of its remote controller, you can use a commercially available IR receiver to pickup the remote con- troller signals and feed them to the DPC-7.4, as shown below.
