Types of Controls for Nexus 21 Lift Systems 

 

All Nexus 21 Lift Systems come standard with a 

wireless remote control

 and receiver. We offer a choice of two different 

types of remotes: IR and RF (both of which are explained in detail below). Our standard control type is RF, so unless you 
specifically requested the IR version when you made your purchase, you probably received the RF  controls with this Lift 
System. The method of installation for each type of remote control is slightly different, so you should now identify which 
type of remote you have by reading below, and then follow the instructions for that type of remote. 
 

NOTE:

  

If you  will be using the Lift with a  home  control system (like the ones  made by companies  such as Crestron or 

Control  4)  the  most  common  form  of  control  is  to  WIRE  IT  DIRECTLY  to  the  relays  of  your  home  control  system.  This 
direct-wire  method  is  called 

Integration  by  Contact  Closure

,  and  is  accomplished  by  using  the  Backup  Control  Switch 

(Height Limit Switch) that was supplied with the Lift System to connect the Lift to the control unit from your home control 
system.  

 

Before You Begin the Installation: Identify Your Control Type 

 

IR (Infrared)

 

– This control option allows you to utilize a 3

rd

 party universal style remote control to raise and lower the 

TV Lift.  Your universal remote will “learn” the IR codes from the provided IR Handset, which will enable you to control the 
lift.  The universal remote will then communicate with the “eye” located on the IR Receiver via your 3

rd

 party emitter (or 

flasher).  Instructions for mounting the IR controls are on page 14.  Instructions for setting the TV Lift’s travel limit are on 
Supplemental Page B.

 

 
             

   NOTE:  

If you are NOT planning on using a 3

rd

 party Universal Remote, switch to the RF setup.  (There is no charge for swapping)   

 

 
These are the parts included with IR controls:   

 
                          
 
 
 
 
 

 

 

     

Contact Closure Hardware                  IR Receiver 

              IR Handset          Height Limit Insert 

      

 
RF (Radio Frequency)

 

This system utilizes a wireless remote control handset that sends a radio signal to the RF 

Receiver. The radio signal can go through cabinet walls and does not require line-of-sight. Instructions for mounting the 
RF controls are on page 15.  Instructions for setting the Lift System travel limit are on Supplemental Page B.

 

  

TIP:

 Planning to integrate the TV Lift with your UNIVERSAL REMOTE CONTROL? The RF version of the Nexus 21 controls won’t do  

it. Switch to IR. 

 
These are the parts included with RF controls:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

               

Backup Switch               RF Receiver 

            RF Handset 

           Height Limit Insert 

Integration by Contact Closure

 

– To direct-wire the TV Lift controls to a home control system (Crestron, Control 4, 

AMX, etc.) you will use the Back-up Control Switch (Height Limit Switch). You won’t use any Nexus 21 receiver or handset 
for  this  type  of  control  because  you  will  use  the  handset  or  control  pad  that  comes  with  your  home  control  system.  

Instructions for setting up the System using Contact Closure are on “Supplemental Page C”.
