To program the NXT-700 to send IR commands, you’ll need to download one of the device appropriate
.WIR files, or use the IR Learner to learn the remote for the device.
Use the IR Diagnostics page. an IR Action, or an RPC command to send IR commands out the IR ports.
IR Emitters
The IR Emitters are small cables with an IR Emitter at one end and a small audio style plug at the other.
The emitters plug into the IR ports. The emitter end attaches to the device to be controlled. When the
NXT-700 is sending a command to the device through the emitter, the LED on the back of the emitter will
light up. Make certain if using 2 emitters on the same port that they are matched emitters for proper
operation. Do not mix brands of emitters when utilized on the same port as inconsitent operation may
occur.
LED Indicators for IR Ports
When an IR command is sent out an IR Port, the LED for that port is lit.
IR Learner
The IR Learner is used to learn the IR codes from a device’s remote control. It can read many different
types of remotes. If it has trouble with your remote, you may need to download from
WACI World
website a .WIR file that is specific to the device.
IR Learner Port
Point your remote at the window on the lower right front of the NXT-700 to learn an IR command for
your remote. You’ll need to use the IR diagnostics page to learn the command.
IR Learner LED
The LED is lit during the learning process when an IR signal is detected on the IR sensor within the
NXT-700. When the process is first started the LED will glow in and out slowly until a signal is
received. If the remote is too far away it will continue to glow slowly. The correct distance for the
strength of the signal is usually about 6” and will turn the LED solid when the proper distance is
achieved. If the remote is too close then the LED will blink fast.
