Extender Model 500755
Page 97
The 500755 transceiver can be configured as a transmitter or receiver and supports a
bi-directional IR port. The below example is for transmitting IR from the sink side
(display/powered speaker-amplifier side) to the source side, but the 500755 can be
configured to transmit IR from the source to the sink side as well.
Once a device is selected, the
Data to send in HEX
field becomes enabled. In the
above example, source “Audio 1” was chosen as the selected device, meaning that a
command sent to source “Audio 1” will travel from the Network Controller to the
Ethernet Switch, then from the Ethernet Switch to the transceiver (set as a transmitter)
connected to source “Audio 1”. The transceiver (set as a transmitter) will then send the
specified IR data command to source “Audio 1” via the IR Emitter connected to the
transceiver (set as a transmitter) IR out port.
The
IR code received in HEX
field displays the HEX version of an IR command send
from a handheld remote to an IR transceiver (set as a receiver) IR In port and attached
IR Sensor.
When sending IR commands directly from an IR Source device, such as an IR
handheld remote, from 500755 transceiver (set as a receiver) through to a transceiver
(set as a transmitter), the user must set up a pass-through for IR signals to be sent to
and from devices. This requires the following step:
The user must tell the 500755 transceiver (set as a receiver, and being
the device near the IR handheld remote with an attached IR Sensor)
the IP address of the 500755 transceiver (set as a transmitter, and
where the IR commands are being sent, which has an attached IR
Emitter). This is done by first clicking on the
Select a device
drop-
down list and selecting the local device from the list, and then
inputting the IP address of the far device in the
IP Feedback
field. The
user then clicks on
Save
.
