Remote Control Switchers
GENERAL INFORMATION
• The RS41AV is a low noise, wide bandwidth, unity gain, infrared remote controlled switcher for line level
stereo audio and video baseband signals.
• It selects audio and video signals from any one of four sources and sends them to one output with no signal
loss.
• It allows additional source selections for the inputs of A/V receivers, VCR's, TV monitors, etc.
• A hand-held programmer, model RC68+ (available separately), is the source of the four IR input switching
commands for the RS41AV (see Fig.4). Normally the installer would "teach" these commands into a
Xantech Learning Remote, Key Pad or other learning device for eventual use by the customer.
• The space saving "flat pack" design allows great flexibility in mounting and positioning.
