Description
The Crestron
®
IRP2 is a pure IR (infrared) emitter that is designed to adhere to the IR
sensor window of a television, an optical disc player, or any other IR-controllable device.
The IRP2 connects to any Crestron control system or room solution box that is equipped
with a 2-pin terminal block-type Crestron IR port, providing a 1-way IR control interface
to the device.

Positioning the IRP2
With many devices, the IRP2 works best when positioned directly over the controlled
device’s IR sensor, but with other devices, operation is more consistent when the IRP2 is
placed an inch or two offset from the IR sensor.
It may be difficult to locate the IR sensor on the controlled device, so instead, test
commands from the Crestron control system or room solution box while moving the IRP2
around the controlled device’s front panel. When operation is consistent and reliable,
attach the IRP2 using the procedure below.
Attaching the IRP2
Peel off the clear adhesive strip on the back of the IRP2 shell, and then carefully affix the
IRP2 to the desired location on the controlled device’s front panel while pressing firmly.
Attaching the IR Mask (Optional)
Attach the included IR mask when two or more identical components in the same rack
are being controlled. The IR mask prevents stray IR output from accidentally controlling
another device.
To attach the IR mask, fit the two pieces together without removing the clear adhesive
strips from the IRP2 shell or the IR mask, and then attach the IRP2 to the controlled
device as described above.

NOTE:
If the IRP2’s shell must be removed and repositioned for any reason, it may
be necessary to replace the adhesive strip with a new piece of two-sided tape
(supplied) to restore adhesion.
NOTE:
The IRP2 is a pure infrared emitter, and it does not emit visible light. Since IR
can be recorded by using a smart device’s digital camera, test to see that the IRP2 is
properly working by triggering the IRP2 using the control system or room solution
box. While the IRP2 is being triggered, record a video of the emitter with a smart
phone’s digital camera. If IR is visible in the video during playback, the IRP2 is
properly working.
