IR-10 Infrared Remote Control
The optional EXTRON IR-10 infrared (IR) remote control is a
hand held unit. It communicates with the Model 8 PLUS and
Model 10 PLUS switchers through an external IR detector that
is connected to an adapter. The adapter connects to the
MANUAL REMOTE connector on the switcher rear panel and
gets its power from the +5 volts on pin 13.
Operation requires pressing the key for the desired channel
number while aiming the hand held unit at the IR detector.
Approximate operating range is 30 feet.
The IR detector receives infrared signals from the hand held
IR-10 remote control and converts them to logic signals. The
logic signals are used by the adapter to duplicate front panel
channel selection.
To install the IR-10 remote control system do the following:
1. Power OFF the switcher.
2. Connect the IR-10 adapter 25 pin plug to the MANUAL
REMOTE connector on the rear panel of the switcher.
3. Plug the RJ-11 male connector into the IR-10 Adapter
RJ-11 female connector.
4. Position the IR detector for the best reception of the
infrared light from the IR-10 hand held remote controller
(limited by a 6' cable).
5. Power the switcher ON.
The E
XTRON part number for the IR-10 is 70-036-01.
