IR Control
Atlona has tested and verified the following components for this application. However, other components may also
be used. Note that
IR control is only supported on
RS-232 2
port (bottom set of connectors) of the OmniStream
encoder and decoder.
•
Xantech 789-44 4-Source Connecting Block
•
Xantech 12 V PSU
•
IR Receiver (Atlona AT-IR-CS-RX)
•
IR Emitter (Atlona AT-OMNI-IR-TX)

Unscrew the captive screw connectors on the Xantech 789-44 4-Source Connecting Block, using a regular
screwdriver, and connect the SIGNAL, GROUND, and POWER leads of the AT-IR-CS-RX to the Xantech 789-44
4-Source Connecting Block, as shown below. The presence or absence of white markings on each wire of the
AT-IR-CS-RX will denote the signal type:
IR IN
= Dashed dark gray line
GND
= Solid (no marking) black wire
+12 VDC = solid dark gray line
