Introduction
By adding an IntelliPad
™
to your IRP2+ Infrared Extender System you
will add a remarkable level of convenience to your system. The IntelliPad
is the world’s first programmable, wall-mounted keypad system that
provides a unique L.E.D. power status display and the convenience of
true one-touch remote control of complex audio/video systems.
The IntelliPad’s status feedback feature eliminates the guesswork com-
mon with standard IR control systems. The power L.E.D. on the
IntelliPad indicates the On/Off condition of the system’s
preamp/receiver.
Built-in intelligence tracks the On/Off condition of the preamp/receiv-
er so the IntelliPad knows when it’s appropriate to issue the power
command, even when the user doesn’t. The system maintains perfect
synchronization between the amplifier and the user.
By combining an optional Niles 12vDC power supply with your IRP2+
you can send a status signal to an IntelliPad without running any addi-
tional wiring. Built into the IRP2+ is a Niles Status Signal Generator.
When the IRP2+ sees 12vDC at the status jack it broadcasts a Status
signal over your existing IR sensor wires. Any IntelliPad connected to
one of your sensor wires will display power status.
IMPORTANT
For the
IntelliPad’s status
feedback feature
to work, the pre-
amp/receiver con-
trolling your sys-
tem should have a
switched AC out-
let, a switched
outlet is a 120v
AC outlet that
switches off,
when the preamp/
rec-eiver is off
and switches on
when it is on via
remote control.
