Installing the IR-sensor additionally
Additionally to the control via OEM navigation, it is possible to install the original IR-sensor
of a connected device. By using a Y-adapter (e.g. STA-Y35MM or STA-RJ12) for the IR-Port of
the connected device, the controls from navigation AND the devices IR-sensor can be
connected and used. If there are 2 devices connected, it´s possible to use the IR-remote
from one device for both connected devices. The installation of the additional IR-sensor is
recommended as the possible controls via navigation are limited, and not all functions may
be covered.
