Step 3: Setup the IR blaster extender cable and IR sensor extender cable
The IR relays infrared commands from your remote control to your device. Users can control
their A/V devices by pointing their remote control to the receiver or IR sensor extender cable.
(IR distance from remote to receiver / IR sensor cable is 30 feet line of sight.)
A: Transmitter
1. Plug the IR Blaster cable into the IR OUT jack on the transmitter.
2. Apply the IR blaster head directly over the eye of the IR sensor on your source device.
This allows the remote controls to your devices to work from another room when using
the wireless receiver*.
B: Receiver
1. Place the wireless receiver out of sight
and use the IR sensor extender to control
your devices with their remote control.
2. Plug the IR sensor extender cable into
the IR IN jack on the receiver and place
the sensor on the front of the TV for
convenient operation.
*In some instances, the IR sensor on your source device may be difficult to find. To help
simplify this process, you can use a flash light to locate the IR sensor on the front panel of
your device. Be sure to place the IR Blaster directly over the eye of the sensor.
