The
distribution hub supplies power to any standard IR receiver
and IR signals to 4 emitter outputs (2 global, and 2 zone specific).
P-1205
Global IR emitters will flash when any
IR receiver in the system detects a signal.
Zone IR emitters will only flash when an
IR receiver the same P-1205 detects a
signal.
Power connection.
Expansion connectors are used to hook up
additional units and create more IR zones.
Status LEDs.
IR receivers can be connected using either
the 3-wire terminals or mini-plug.
IR repeating concepts:
IR zones:
Most people are familiar with Infra-Red remote controls because they use
them to operate their TV and other devices on a daily basis. However,
some people may not be familiar with IR repeating. IR repeating allows
the user to control devices which are not within the direct line of sight of
the remote control. This is most commonly used in distributed audio/video
systems where the source components are centrally located. See
on the next page for details.
Some IR systems, including the P-1205, are capable of creating zones that
only repeat the IR signals that are picked up by a particular receiver (or
group of receivers). This is useful when there are multiple devices from
the same manufacturer, such as satellite decoders, that are operated with
the same remote control. IR zones prevent one user from inadvertently
control a satellite decoder that someone else is trying to watch.
