Remote Control of Sources and Displays
Sources and displays do not have to be controlled at their physical location. Using
MuxLab receivers, each source and display can be controlled at different locations
using their respective remotes.
Using source remotes, sources can be controlled at display locations via receivers (see
Figure 8). To do so, make sure that the IR emitter cable leading from the
IR Emitters
port 1 on the back of the Matrix Switch has its emitter end placed in front of IR sensor
on source 1. Do the same for all ports and all sources (see Table 3).

Using display remotes, displays can be controlled at the Matrix Switch location via
receivers (see Figure 9). To do so, make sure that the remote of display 1 is directed at
the sensor end of the IR sensor cable leading from the
IR Sensors
port 1 on the back of
the Matrix Switch. Do the same for all ports and display remotes (see Table 4).
