NOTE
Learning IR in Mirrored Mode
In an integrated and mirrored installation, store the IR codes in the PAN6400 VDC
connecting the video. This PAN6400 VDC controls the additional PAN6400 VDC.
You do not need to store any IR codes in the PAN6400 VDC that is connecting the
coaxial digital (S/PDIF) audio.
Learning IR in Cascade Mode
In an integrated and cascaded installation, you only need to store IR codes in one
Musica MU5066ADC, but you must learn IR codes into each PAN6400 VDC.
All the sources (as many as four) are connected to one Musica MU5066ADC, which is
where you learn and store all source IR commands.
Up to six displays connect to a PAN6400 VDC (through a Video Port), and you only
store IR commands for the displays connected to it.
Integrating with DigiLinX
You can also integrate the NetStreams Panorama system with DigiLinX, NetStreams’
IP-Based Multi-Room Audio and Control system (See
When integrating Panorama and DigiLinX, DigiLinX stores all the relevant IR codes
for audio and video sources. The PAN6400 VDC stores the IR codes for displays.
Each source connects to either a MediaLinX MLA101 or an MLA4000 which converts
the audio signal into a TCP/IP stream. Learn and store the IR codes for each source
into the MediaLinX it is connected to.
The IR pass-through
ability only works with
sources connected to the
PAN6400 VDC. Other
sources (audio or
control) that are
connected to the
DigiLinX and not
directly connected to the
PAN6400 VDC will not
have pass-through
ability.
You can install VP700s to provide IR pass-through ability, allowing you to send IR
commands from the display to the headend. However, since the PAN6400 VDC does
not control sources when integrated with DigiLinX, you must connect the MediaLinX
to the PAN6400 VDC and then to the source.
By using VP700s at the display end, IR commands from source or universal remotes
are transported back to the PAN6400 VDC. When connected with this method, both IR
commands originating from the MediaLinX (commands that were learned and stored
into the MediaLinX for the source), and IR commands originating from a VP700 IR
Receiver are routed through the PAN6400 VDC to the source.
Example
A client wants six rooms to access four video sources and the rest of the house to
access the video sources and two audio sources. The six sources include:
HD-DVD player
regular DVD player
cable box
Tivo™
two CD players.
