Connecting Components not Reached by the Remote Controller Signals (IR IN)

In order to use the remote controller to control the DTR-10.5 from a remote location, you will need to prepare a multiroom kit (sold separately) such as one listed below:

Multiroom kits such as those made by Niles® and Xantech®

RF Receivers can also be used with the remote controller to control the DTR-10.5 from a remote location. To use RF Receivers, set the Transmission Signal Format set- ting to “RF” (See page 141 for details).

If Remote Controller Signal Does not Reach the DTR-10.5 Remote Sensor

Effective Sensor Layout

Example for the main room

If the DTR-10.5 is located inside a cabinet or other enclosure where the infrared rays from the remote controller cannot enter, then operation with the remote controller will not be possible. In such a case, it will be necessary to install a remote sensor at a location outside of the cabinet so that the infrared rays from the controller can be sensed.

Example for the remote zone (Zone 2/Zone 3)

The IR IN input allows you to control the DTR-10.5 from the remote zone (Zone 2/Zone 3) with the remote controller even though the remote zone may be on the other side of the building from the main zone. The diagram below shows how to make the proper connections for the remote zone.

Effective Sensor Connections

When connecting a multiroom kit, use the IR connection Phoenix (Pluggable connector) terminal (smaller one) supplied with the DTR-10.5.

Connect the ribbon cable from the connecting block to the IR connection Phoenix terminal.

1.Loosen the screws using a flatblade screwdriver to open the shutters.

2.Connect the white wire to the MAIN, ZONE 2 or ZONE 3 terminal according to the room where the multiroom kit is used, and then close the shutter.

3.Connect the red wire to the +12V terminal, and then close the shutter. If you use more than one multiroom kit in different rooms such as MAIN and ZONE 2, connect all the red wires to the +12V terminal together.

4.Connect the black wire to the GND terminal, and then close the shutter. If you use more than one multiroom kit in different rooms, connect all the black wires to the GND terminal together.

5.As shown in the illustration below, connect the Phoe- nix terminal firmly to the IR IN socket on the DTR-10.5.

Push the connec- tor into the socket until it clicks.
