Power Connections
Important!
Do not use any transformer other than the OWI supplied or approved transformer.
Use of any improper transformer may damage the unit.
Each unit is supplied with a "wall-wart" style UL-approved transformer to supply the appropriate power
for the unit.
The receiver units are designed to use a 12 VDC transformer with 1.5 Amp or greater capacity. Plug the
power connector of the supplied transformer into the power receptacle on the receiver.
The Matrix is designed to use a 12 V DC transformer. It is
extremely
important to use
only
the proper
AC transformer for the Matrix. Likewise, it is
extremely
important to make sure that the AC transformer
for the router is
not
used for the receiver, to prevent permanent damage to the units.
IR Remote Setup
This section only applies if the
optional
IR control system was purchased with the system. In this case, an
"RCA System Link 3" universal remote and IR detector module for the receiver is included with the
system.
The receiver responds to three different IR commands: Volume Up, Volume Down, and Mute. There is
no setup required on the remote, because the volume control commands use the default settings (TV
mode, code=000).
The router uses the same remote as the receiver for source input selection and control. The remote needs
to be setup in "Cable" mode, code=034. To do this, press and hold the "Code Search" button until the red
LED stays lit. Then, press the "Cable" button to select the mode. Then enter in the code value, 034. After
the third digit, the LED turns off and the remote returns to the operational mode. This will setup the re-
mote to control the router.
Note: Selecting "Cable mode" on the remote to control the router does not affect the volume control
commands for the receiver. The volume up/down/mute keys on the remote are not affected by the "Cable
mode" selection which changes the operation of the numeric keys. Thus, the remote is fully able to
control both the router and receiver, without even having to change the mode selection function.
If the user desires to control the router and receiver using a learning remote, such as the Marantz RC-2000
or similar, then follow that remote's instructions to transfer the control codes from the RCA remote to the
learning remote.
When using a Marantz RC-2000 or similar learning remote, the menu keys can be labeled for "DVD,"
"CD," and other devices, so that each device can be selected by simply pressing the appropriate menu
key.
