12 VDC @ 500 mA power supply.
Connectors:
1/8" stereo jacks.
Remotes:
Kenwood, Sony.

Wire:
Uses conventional unshielded "zip" or telephone wire.
The TCE-TKS/TCE-MKS package is designed to receive infrared signals from remote controllers via
remote sensors, and send them to the central processor, which in turn sends these signals to remote
repeaters. This system is not capable of making devices remote controllable that are not so already, but
allows remote system operation from any room in a structure where the TCE-TKS/TCE-MKS sensors are
installed.
The best location for the central processor is behind the stereo system. The emitter should be
positioned directly over the component's IR sensor. You may have to move the emitter around to find the
"sweet spot". Once a good position is found, peel the backing paper off and adhere the emitter to the unit.
Make sure that the emitter is not in the line of sight or reflection of any sensors as radiation from the repeater
may be picked up by a system sensor, resulting in a feedback situation which causes instability and unreliable
operation. Undesirable reflection can occur off light colored walls, windows, mirrors and even shiny wood
finishes. Plug the emitter into the 1/8" output jack on the front of the central processor.
The sensors can use any standard type wire. Regular "zip" cord or telephone wire will be satisfactory.
Shielded or coaxial cable is not usually required unless the wire runs pass through some unusually high
electrical interference regions.
For connection, prepare the wire leads for all remote sensors by stripping about 1/4" of insulation
from each of the wire ends. Twist strands tightly together so that none stick out to cause possible short
circuits. Insert the wire ends into the outputs on the back of the central processor following the wiring
diagram on the back of this page. Tighten all screws and inspect for loose wire strands, etc.
Plug the power supply into the wall, and the wire lead into the jack labeled POWER on the front of the
central processor. The unit is now ready to operate. Test function of system by aiming a remote controller at a
remote sensor. If the system does not function properly, check that the location of the sensor is not interfering
with the equipment sensor.
