IR PASS-THROUGH
The bi-directional IR system allows you to control the source that is connected to the extender unit, from
the display; or the display from the source, not simultaneously. There are two important things to note when
setting up the IR system:
1. The IR Receiver (IR RX) is always what you point your remote at to send an IR signal. This pigtail is placed
at the display for controlling the source; or at the source for controlling the display.
2. The IR Emitter (IR TX) is what sends the IR signal to what you are intending to control, whether it’s the
source or the display. This pigtail is placed at the source; either pointed at the source, or placed on the
front panel of the source, see below for placement tips. Or placed at the display to control the display
from the source.
To Control the Display:
1. Plug IR Emitter into IR TX
port of the receiver unit; place
transmitter in front of the IR
eye of the display
2. Plug IR Receiver into IR RX
port of transmitter unit; place
receiver in position where it is
able to receive remote signals
To Control the Source:

TX port of the transmitter unit;
place transmitter in front of the
