IR Expansion Port Connections
The IR Expansion Port Connections serve three purposes.
First, they allow IR commands from the System Controller to be routed to the SOURCE IR
OUTPUTS of the main chassis.
Second, source IR commands from zones on the auxiliary chassis are routed directly to the
SOURCE IR OUTPUTS of the main chassis.
Third, IR commands received by auxiliary M86A chassis are transmitted through the main
M86A chassis’ ALL ZONES IR OUT to the System Controller. These commands can be
used to trigger Event Maps that have been set up in the ELAN configuration software and
programmed into the System Controller.
Connect the IR EXPANSION PORT OUT of the MAIN chassis to the IR EXPANSION PORT IN
of the second chassis and continue this process to all chassis.
This connection uses DB-15 Male to Female cables.
