Integrating the Niles RVL-6 and MRZ-6 Multi-Room Controllers
The RVL-6 and MRZ-6 both feature an “IR Data Output” which can be connected to the
IntelliControl’s “Second Zone IR” input for control of shared sources.
Additionally, both the RVL-6 and the MRZ-6’s control outputs incorporate blocking diodes
in case if you are not using a Niles iPower device.
Multiple TV Array In A Media Room
With the help of an IR Routing Device, multiple identical TVs (or other components) may
be controlled with one Master Key. The IR codes used to select the individual routes may
be taught to the “Menu” or “Transport” group of Function Keys on the selected “TV Array”
page, and the television’s tuner codes are taught to the Numeric and Channel Function
Keys.
The system can be programmed so that when the user presses one of the transport keys,
the IR Router turns off all flashers except the route you have intentionally selected. Now,
when the user operates the “Channel Up/Down” and “Numeric” keys, the IR commands
are routed to only that TV (or component).
Unfortunately, Niles has discontinued the IRD-8 product, but similar IR routing devices are
available from other manufacturers.
Integrating the Niles IntelliPad™ Into the Home Theater
A wall-mounted IntelliPad is a valuable addition to an IntelliControl Home Theater System.
It offers an automated control which cannot be hidden or misplaced by children or absent
minded adults. Control via the IntelliPad is limited to six of the ten Master Keys.
The IntelliPad must be taught special Niles IntelliControl IR codes (which function the
same as the RF automation codes the IntelliControl Tabletop Remote sends). The special
IntelliControl IR codes can be found in the IntelliFile II’s IR Library under “Niles” codes.
Integrating a Learning Touchscreen Into An IntelliControl Home Theater
A learning IR remote or touchscreen may operate an IntelliControl Automated Home
Theater System. It will not offer the same degree of convenience that the omni-directional,
long range, radio frequency control the IntelliControl remote offers; however, your user
may have already purchased one of these expensive devices.
The IntelliControl will automate the operation of the Home Theater (the IntelliControl MSU
stores all the IR commands and issues all IR codes and sequences), leaving the
touchscreen only one job to do: which is to tell the IntelliControl MSU what the user wants
to do.
The learning remote (or touchscreen) must be taught special Niles IntelliControl IR codes
(which correspond to the RF codes the IntelliControl Tabletop remote sends) by utilizing
the Niles IR codes provided in the IntelliFile II IR Library under “Niles” codes.
Learning IR touchscreens issue IR codes, therefore a Niles IR sensor must be connected
to the IntelliControl’s “Home Theater IR” input.
