3. Connect the installed IR receiver cable to the 'IR RCVR' connector of the IR
Module.
4. Connect the power adapter to the '12VDC' connector of the IR Module and
connect it to the mains.

Perform a function test of the product

1. If the IR Control 10 XTRA™ is properly connected, the light on the IR receiver
flashes if you push a button on the (infrared) remote control and aim it towards the
IR receiver.
2. Close the doors of your cabinet and make sure the A/V equipment cannot receive
an infrared command directly from the remote control. Otherwise this could lead to
operating problems.
3. You can now operate your A/V equipment via the IR Control 10 XTRA™ through
the closed cabinet doors!
If the IR Control 10 XTRA is not reacting in a correct way, try experimenting with the
placement of the IR receiver and/or IR extension cables (emitter or blaster). Placing it
somewhere else could give a better result.

Advanced installation

4.4.1

Connecting multiple IR receivers

If you want to operate your A/V equipment from multiple rooms, you can connect up to
6 IR receivers in parallel to the IR module. Cut therefore the standard connector of the
IR receiver and connect it to the SCREW TERMINAL of the IR module (see paragraph
4.1).
4.4.2

Extend the cable length of the IR receiver

Only the cables between the IR receiver and the IR module can be extended. The IR
cables with emitter or blaster LEDs cannot be extended. Place the IR module as close
as possible to your A/V equipment and extend the cable between the IR receiver and
the IR module if needed to a maximum of 300 meters with CAT5 cable (or equal). Cut
the standard 3.5mm connector off the IR receiver cable and extend the cable according
to the example below.

Connecting AVR connection cable

A/V equipment from different brands (for instance Denon, Yamaha, Onkyo, Marantz,
etc) have a direct "IR IN" connector at the back. A direct connection with the AVR
connection cables is an alternative way of connecting your A/V equipment. The use of
an IR extension cable (with emitter or blaster LED) is
not necessary here.
Note; check the technical documentation of your
equipment to decide whether the IR module of the IR
control 10 XTRA can be connected directly. Most IR
cables use a 3.5mm mono jack connector where the tip is used for the "IR Data" and
the sleeve for "GND".
