Mounting
The RF Extender can be mounted to a piece of furniture using the included
mounting plate and the 4 screws. Take into account the range and the working
angle of the IR blaster as explained on p. 3. Also make sure to place the
RF Extender in a
central position
aimed directly at your devices.
Warning It is adviced not to place the RF Extender inside or near a
metal
closet as
RF signals can be disturbed by metal objects.
Installation
1 Remove the mounting plate from the bottom of the RF Extender.
2 Screw the plate to a rack, closet or another piece of furniture.
Provide sufficient space to connect the power adapter and to slide the
RF Extender back on.
Note
Depending on the surface, it may be possible to attach the RF Extender to the
furniture using a piece of 2-sided tape. Look for the right position and make sure
there is sufficient space.
3 Slide the RF Extender on the mounting plate.
Using the Dual IR Emitters
Like the IR blaster of the RF Extender, the
dual IR emitters
send out IR signals.
You can use the dual IR emitters as an
alternative
for the IR blaster.
When to use the emitters
The IR emitters can control devices the IR blaster cannot reach, for instance when
there is limited space around the receiving eyes of the devices, e.g. in a small
closet.
Note
The IR emitters can also be used in
combination
with the IR blaster of the
RF Extender. Both send out IR signals simultaneously. This allows you to operate
several devices using both the IR blaster and the IR emitters.
