(cont...)
The AUDZ41RC IR Remote Control is a universal remote control that can control
up to six audio/video components in addition to your A-BUS system. It includes a
code library for easy selection of codes and a dedicated A-BUS code bank. All
buttons can learn commands and macros (including the bank buttons). If a device
is not listed in the code library, it is possible to learn commands into the Remote
Control from the ones supplied with the source components. It is also possible to
program multiple commands into one key (macros). For example; you could
program into the SAT bank button commands to turn on your television monitor,
the cable box and select the audio input in the A-BUS Multi-Source Audio Hub.
The operator will then only need to press one button to turn the system on and
set it up for normal TV operation. Additional AUDZ41RC Remote Controls may be
purchased if required.
NOTE: Macro strings take time to emit, the operator should take care not to turn the Remote
Control away from the infrared receiver on the Volume Control Module or speaker before all
commands have been generated.
IR Remote Control AUDZ41RC
AUDZ45 Keypad Volume Control Module
The AUDZ45 Multi-Source Volume Control Module is designed to work with
A-BUS Multi-Source Audio Hubs using standard A-BUS commands.
The AUDZ45 provides the following functions:
Volume Up/Down
Input selection Up/Down
Room Off
System Off
Infrared repeating
Installation
– The AUDZ45 Multi-Source Volume Control Module installs in a single-
gang box at standard light switch height. It is recommended that the Volume Control
Module be installed in an area where the built-in infrared sensor will not get flooded by
direct sunlight. The AUDZ45 Volume Control may be located up to 100ft (30m) away
from the MDADZHMS/E Hub. The A-BUS System uses Cat 5/5e wiring following the
TIA 568A color code (see A-BUS Color Code).
Infrared Repeater
- Volume Control Modules that include infrared receivers will pass most infrared
commands without difficulty. They will repeat standard 38 kHz commands and 56 kHz commands,
which are often used in satellite receivers. Care should be taken to ensure the emitters are properly
placed over the receiver on the front of the component.
Infrared Remote IR Range
- The operating range of your Remote Control will vary according to the
light conditions in the room, the quality of the IR remote (and battery condition) and the system
design in the components. In ideal conditions in areas with low light the range should be up to 70ft
(20m), however, in areas of high sunlight or lighting such as low-voltage lighting which can emit light
in the infrared frequency range the operating range can be substantially less. In direct sunlight the
range may be reduced to as little as 15ft (5m). Care should be taken when planning your A-BUS
system installation to locate the Volume Control Modules in a position away from direct light and in
a position convenient to the users to point the IR Remote Control to the receiver in the module.
NOTE: IR Remote Controls operate using infrared (invisible) light. The Remote needs line-of-sight
and will not send commands around corners or through furniture or heavy curtains.
Additional features:
Status indication
Infrared talkback
Backlighting (adjustable)
