REMOTE ROOM APPLICATION
One application is to locate the IR receiver in a remote room. This will give the
end-user the ability to control audio/video equipment from a location where the
remote control no longer has the ability of direct line-of-sight.
The IR receiver will need the 3.5mm stereo type mini plug removed to extend the
wire run to the connecting block. A 4-terminal block is included to connect the IR
receiver to the connecting block with a 3-conductor inter-room cable in between.
The 3-conductor inter-room cable (24 gauge up to 200’, 22 gauge up to 600’, 20
gauge up to 2000’, 18 gauge up to 5000’), is run to the main room.
Input connections must be made as illustrated. To extend the emitter wires to

a more distant location, you may splice in 2-conductor wire, in the wire gauges
mentioned before, as needed.
While it is possible to make wired connections without the connecting block, it
is not recommended. The connecting block reduces installation time, helps to
eliminate errors, allows easy troubleshooting and permits easy system upgrades
later, if needed.
