Fig. 5: 3-Dimension Foot Pattern

The TX9 floods the listening audience with a cone shape light pattern as shown here.

The path of the cone shape light leaves a pattern on the ground, or "foot print, " and indicates where the strongest receiver reception will occur.

The actual coverage area will vary depending on the sensitivity of the receiver being used. Refer to Figures 4 and 7 to determine how many emitters are required for 100% coverage of the listening area.

To determine the best location for the emitter, it helps to think of the IR emitter as an invisible flood- light. You’ll want to aim it so the listeners are “flooded” with the infrared light. The emitter should also be positioned high enough so it won’t be blocked by people and other physical obstructions. See Figure 6 below. Mount the emitter at least 2 ft. (.61 m) above the audience. Position the emitter to face in a slightly downward angle, 20°, that will increase the “throw” of the infrared beam.

FAQ

What is the coverage area of the WIR TX925 SoundPlus Infrared System?

The coverage area of the WIR TX925 system will vary depending on the sensitivity of the receiver being used. Refer to the manual for Figures 4 and 7 to determine how many emitters are required for 100% coverage of the listening area.

How should I position the IR emitter for optimal performance?

Mount the emitter at least 2 ft (0.61 m) above the audience, facing in a slightly downward angle to increase the throw of the infrared beam. See Figure 6 for a visual guide on vertical beam spread.

What is the minimum receiver range when operating with a TX9 emitter in single channel mode?

The minimum receiver range varies depending on the receiver model. For the RX22-4 receiver, the range is 150 ft (45 m), while for the RX14-2 it's 80 ft (24 m) and for the RX16 it's 70 ft (21 m).
