Product Overview
The 862 Eye IR Receiver receives IR signals from a handheld IR remote control
and relays these signals to the audio-video equipment for operation from another
room. It mounts through a circular hole with a diameter of 0.5” (1.27 cm), requires
a minimum clearance of 2.0” (5.08 cm) behind the face of the mounting panel,
and will mount in a panel with a maximum thickness of 1.75” (4.45 cm).
The blue talkback LED can be disabled by snipping the wire that loops out of
the 860 near the leads.

Bezel Exchange
The 862 Eye comes with three bezels (white, black, brass) for more installation
color choices.
To remove the bezel, hold the barrel steady and twist the bezel until it clears the
top of the barrel. Make sure the small clear dust cover stays in place at the end of
the barrel.
To replace the bezel, center the bezel over the dust cover and barrel, thread
onto the barrel end and twist until snug. The hole in the dust cover should line up
with the offset sensor at the top of the receiver.
