About the transmission signal

This remote control can emit not only the infrared beams which the conventional remote control(including the ROOM 2 remote control) uses but also the RF(Radio Frequency) beams which are stronger than those.

To operate this receiver and other components, this remote control should emit the infrared beams.

To operate this receiver only from longer distance even if there are obstacles such as walls, furniture, etc. in the way, this remote control should emit the RF beams.

Therefore, depending on how to use this remote control, you should set the transmission signal mode to "IR"(default value) or "RF". (For details, refer to "Changing the transmission signal" on page 29.)

Notes :

To receive the RF beams, you should connect the RF remote antenna to this receiver. (For details, refer to "CONNECTING RF REMOTE ANTENNA" on page 14.)

If the transmission signal mode is set to "RF", this remote control cannot control other audio and video components. However, if the IR emitter is connected to the IR OUT jack, you can control other component via it. (For details, refer to "CONNECTING MULTI-ROOM SYSTEM KIT" on page 14.)
