TROUBLE SHOOTING:

1.Perhaps the most common problem you may encounter is stray IR (infrared) or RF (radio frequency) interference preventing proper operation of the controlled equipment.

Fluorescent, Compact Fluorescent, Neon or Halogen lights, Neon Art, and light dimmers.

Direct of reflected sunlight.

Infrared security sensors (active types).

RF radiation from TV sets that may be close to the Hidden Link IR Receiver.

2.You can confirm the source of the interference by temporarily turning off TV sets, isolating the Hidden Link IR Receiver from all sunlight and turning off all lights, light dimmers and Infrared security systems. Then check to see if the Hidden Link IR Receiver operates the component.

Sometimes interference will cause the red Talk-Back LED on the front of the Hidden Link IR Receiver to blink dimly, intermittently, or continuously.

The Talk-Back Led should only blink when you are sending infrared commands to the Hidden Link IR receiver from a remote control.

It may be necessary to move either the interfering source of the Hidden Link IR Receiver to achieve proper operation.

3.If the Talk-Back LED or the 286D Emitters do not blink when you are sending IR commands to the Hidden Link IR Receiver from a remote control, check the following:

Make sure the power supply is plugged securely into a live AC electrical outlet.

Be sure the stereo mini plug of the Hidden Link IR Receiver is plugged into the “IR RCVR” jack on the CB12 Connecting Block, not into the “OUT” jack.

Check to see that all the mini plugs are properly seated into the mini jacks on the CB12 Connecting Block.

4.If the 286D Emitters blink, but the component does not respond, reposition the 286D Emitter(s). They may not be located directly over the component’s infrared receiving “window”. Consul the owner’s manual of the unit or the manufacturer for the exact location of the infrared “window”.
