About this User’s Guide
This user’s guide covers the Extron IR 501 Small Matrix Infrared
(IR) Remote Control, part #
70-336-01
. The IR 501 is an optional
remote control that works with Extron matrix switchers. The
remote control can duplicate most of the matrix switcher’s front
panel control functions and some of RS-232 control functions.
The hand-held remote operates at a carrier frequency of 38 kHz.
Refer to the appropriate matrix switcher manual for
definitions of ties, configurations, presets, and audio
breakaway; and for more detailed descriptions of the
switcher’s front panel indications.
Battery Installation
