Sony MRD-D1 - Manual (Page 7)

Installation Instructions
1
Make certain that your present system is functioning correctly
prior to installing MRD-Dl. Ensure that all antenna or cable
signals are being received on all TVs that will be connected to
MRD-Dl.
2
Determine whether your home TV service is cable (CATV) or off-
air (anterma).
Note
• You should make written notes on this step so that you can refer to
them later.
□ If cable: determine the highest charmel number delivering a
-^cture signal, excluding channels 95-99. If uncertain, contact
your local cable company.
□ If antenna: time the TV one channel at a time from channel 14
to channel 36. Write down the channel number of each channel
that has no trace of a picture.
3
Deternune which of the remote TVs will be provided with IR
control capability using the IR target provided with MRD-Dl.
Note
• You can, at a later time, move the target to another remote TV, or add
more IR targets. For now, you need to plan where the target will be
used.

all of the following conditions:

permits connection of the IR emitters to the video sources
within the length of the emitter cable (6 ft.);
is clean and dry and likely to stay that way. Mounting near
window or door openings is strongly discouraged.
