Placing the IR extension cable with one blaster LED

Marmitek recommends the use of IR blaster LEDs because they can operate multiple
A/V devices at the same time and they are very easy to install. Use the supplied IR
extension cable with emitter LEDs only as solution if one or more devices cannot be
operated (see chapter 5.3).
Place the IR blaster LED in the cabinet of the A/V
devices you want to operate.
With a correct placement one blaster LED can

operate all A/V devices placed in the same
compartment.
In some situations it is necessary to place a

second blaster LED if not all A/V devices can
be operated with one blaster LED.
Or you place the blaster LED on one of the A/V devices in the middle of the

cabinet and the other equipment will be operated as well by the reflection of the
infrared signal.

5.3 Installation of the IR extension cable with emitter LEDs (as problem solution)

Place the LEDs from the IR extender cable precisely on the IR window (infrared
sensor) on the A/V equipment that you wish to operate.
 Ensure that the IR extender cable's LEDs are stuck precisely on the A/V device's
infrared sensor (this can be extremely accurate on some devices). The exact
position can easily be located by shining a torch on the front panel and looking for
the IR sensor window.
 All IR LEDs include self-adhesive film with which they are attached to your A/V
equipment.
Test the position and the performance of the IR LEDs before you secure them to

the IR window on your A/V equipment.
If you use only one of the two LED's, leave the other IR LED unused. Never

remove it from the extension cable!

Locating the IR Module

Mount the IR Module at an accessible place behind or alongside your A/V equipment,
in the vicinity of an electrical socket.
Be aware of the cable length of the IR LEDs and the IR receiver.

Make sure the connections for installation remain accessible.

Connecting the IR Module

1. Connect the installed IR extension cables to the 'IR OUT' connector of the IR
Module.
2. Switch only the switches of the IR Module in BLASTER mode if an IR extension
cable with one blaster LED is connected. In any other case, leave the switch in
the EMITTER mode.
NOTE: a wrong choice between the two possibilities can cause damage to the IR
LEDs and they can even become defective.
