Setting Up the RF Rod Antenna Setting Up the IR Signal Transmitter

The remote control supplied for this receiver can transmit RF (Radio Frequency) signal. The RF rod antenna can receive the RF signals emitted from the remote control. So, with the RF rod antenna connected, you can operate the receiver at a distance of up to 50 feet (15 m) using the remote control. However, if the antenna cannot receive signals stably, you cannot operate the receiver correctly.

•The signal-reachable distance may differ depending on the operating conditions and circumstances. To improve transmitting conditions, change the distance to the receiver and the direction to transmit while operating the remote control.

•Without the RF rod antenna connected, you can operate the receiver with the remote control, aiming the remote control directly toward the remote sensor on the receiver.

To set up the RF rod antenna

1.Insert the RF rod antenna to the RF REMOTE ANTENNA terminal.

The RF rod antenna and IR signal Transmitter

The combination of the RF rod antenna and the IR signal transmitter (see to the right) allows you to use the Multi-room function more conveniently.

The remote control supplied for this receiver can transmit both RF (Radio Frequency) signal and IR (infrared) signal at the same time. This receiver catches the RF signals emitted from the remote control, and converts them into IR signals, then transmits the converted signals to the remote sensor on the other components through IR signal transmitter.

This means that you can control not only this receiver but the other components from the sub-room.

Note:

To avoid a failure in the reception from the remote control, keep the connecting cables and the IR signal transmitter’ s cable away from the RF rod antenna.

The IR signal transmitter can transmit the IR signals.

It allows you to use the AV COMPULINK system, and to operate other manufacturers’ components without aiming the remote control directly toward the remote sensor on the target components. In addition, the IR signal transmitter reduces the possibility of malfunction.

•The IR signal transmitter may not operate the target components depending on the operating conditions and circumstances — including the aiming angle and direction of the IR signal transmitter toward the remote sensors of the target components. If this occurs, changing its aiming angle and direction toward the remote sensors may solve the problem.

To set up the IR signal transmitter

1.Find the place where you attach the IR signal transmitter.

•Place it where the signal can reach the remote sensor of the target components directly (in the line-of-sight).

•If the cord length of the IR signal transmitter is not long enough, use an extension cord (not supplied).

2.Attach the double-sided adhesive tape (supplied) to the IR signal transmitter.
