IR-transmitters Pico4, Pico8 and Pico16
Page 5
2.2 Ordinary use
Pico4, Pico8 and Pico16 are made as handheld transmitters and may be hung in a cord around
the neck. Infrared (IR) light is
transmitted from the front of the
transmitter. If possible, the IR-
transmitter should point towards
the receiver when it is used. This
will increase the range and make it
easier for the user to see the light
indicators. Obstacles between the
transmitter and the receiver may
stop IR-signals.
To operate the transmitter, press a key.
•
A green light indicates IR-transmission.
•
If continious IR-transmission is enabled, IR-signal will be repeated as long as key is
pressed.
•
If continious IR-transmission is disabled, IR-signal will be sent only once when key is
pressed.
•
If no IR is programmed on the key, a red light indicator will indicate it.
•
If battery is low, a red flashing light will indicate it.
•
If beeper is enabled, it will give a beep for each keystroke.
•
If page 2 is enabled, the yellow page-indicator will illuminate some seconds at each
keystroke. Yellow light on the left side is for page 1 while yellow light on the right side
indicates page 2. More information about this in chapter 2.4.
A lanyard and a rubber-cover is included. To avoid dust and fluid spill inside the controller, it
is recommended to attach the cover when connections are not in use.
2.3 Macro
A function named macro will be useful if there is a need of transmitting more signals with
only one keystroke on the IR-remote or on an external switch connected to the remote control.
•
A green light indicates IR-transmission.
•
If battery is low, a red flashing light will indicate it when a key is pressed.
•
If beeper is enabled, it will give a beep for each keystroke.
