About the IR 501
The Extron IR 501 Small Matrix Infrared (IR) Remote Control is an
optional remote control that works with Extron matrix switchers. The
remote control can duplicate most of the matrix switcher’s front panel
control functions and some of RS-232 control functions. The hand-held
remote operates at a carrier frequency of 38 kHz.
N Refer to the appropriate matrix switcher manual for definitions of
ties, configurations, presets, and audio breakaway; and for more
detailed descriptions of the switcher’s front panel indications.
Battery Installation
Install two AAA batteries as shown (figure 1).
