HOW IT WORKS
The Precor console can be configured to tune antenna signals directly, or it can be configured
to operate directly with either of these Set Top Boxes (no CAB required):
DirecTV
Enseo
The Precor Media Adapter console sends IR control signals to these STBs via an IR Emitter
connected to a cable from the console.
The CAB allows the console to control a wider variety of STBs by intercepting the console
’s IR
control signal, interpreting it, and then retransmitting in any of the IR STB protocols supported
by CAB. The custom cable connects the CAB to both the console
’s CSAFE connector and also
to the console
’s IR emitter cable in order to receive the STB control output signal.
The CAB knows how to receive and interpret the control signals for the Enseo STB only.
Therefore, the console must be configured as if it was being used with an Enseo STB (see
details in next section). The correct signal will go to the CAB and it will translate into any of its
other supported STB signal formats.
