Connecting the DPC-7.7—Continued
You can use the following multi-room kits to control the
DPC-7.7 when it’s out of range of the remote controller:
• Multiroom kits such as those made by Niles and Xan-
tech.
Controlling the DPC-7.7 When It’s Out of
Range
If the DPC-7.7 is located in another room, installed in a
cabinet, or out of range of its remote controller, you can
use a commercially available IR receiver to pickup the
remote controller signals and feed them to the DPC-7.7,
as shown below.
Connect the IR receiver to the DPC-7.7 as shown below.
Controlling Other Out-of-range AV
Components
If another AV component is out of range of its remote
controller, you can use a commercially available IR
emitter to retransmit the remote controller signals
received at the DPC-7.7’s IR IN, as shown below.
Connect the IR emitter to the DPC-7.7’s IR OUT, and
place the IR emitter in front of the other AV component’s
remote control sensor (usually located on its front
panel), as shown below. See the instructions supplied
with the IR emitter.
Only remote controller signals received by the
DPC-7.7’s IR IN are fed through to the IR OUT. Signals
picked up by the DPC-7.7’s remote control sensor are
not output.
