LINDY 38181 150m Wireless Bi-Directional IR Extender User Manual

Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the 150m Wireless Bi-Directional IR Extender. This product has been designed to provide trouble free, reliable operation. It benefits from both a LINDY 2-year warranty and free lifetime technical support. To ensure correct use, please read this manual carefully and retain it for future reference.

This Bi-Directional Wireless IR Extender is an ideal solution for extending IR signals in one to one, one to many and many to many configurations with the inclusion of additional transceivers and IR emitter and receiver cables. Multiple connections can be established in close proximity to one another without interference using the integrated radio frequency (RF) rotary dial on each transceiver unit. Each transceiver is also USB bus powered, which creates complete flexibility for installation.

Installation

Please see the steps below to successfully install this product.

Set the RF rotary dial on the back of each receiver to the same channel using a small, flat head screwdriver.
Connect a transceiver to a USB port on either an AV device, or USB charger close to the device you wish to control.
Insert the 3.5mm IR emitter cable to the IR emitter port on the transceiver and place the emitter in direct line of sight of the IR port on the device you want to control.
Connect a transceiver to a USB port on either an AV device or USB charger in a convenient location no further than 150m (492.12ft) away from the transceiver located by the device to be controlled.• Insert the 3.5mm IR receiver cable to the IR receiver port on the transceiver and place the receiver in a direct line of sight of the IR remote control or smart home IR hubs IR port. Installation is now complete.

Operation

Alternative configurations

When creating one to many configurations to control multiple devices from one position, install further transceivers close to each device you wish to control, connect an extra IR emitter cable to the IR emitter port on each transceiver and place each emitter in direct line of sight of the IR ports on each device. When creating many to many configurations, simply add further transceivers to convenient locations and an extra IR receiver cable to each one. Ensure each transceiver is set to the same RF channel using the rotary dial.

Radio Frequency Channels

Each transceiver unit has an integrated radio frequency rotary dial on the back of the unit with a total of 10 channels (0-9). This is helpful in creating multiple connections in a limited space by alternating which RF channel is in use.

Recycling of Electronic Products

WEEE (Waste of Electrical and Electronic Equipment),Recycling of Electronic Products

Europe, United Kingdom

In 2006 the European Union introduced regulations (WEEE) for the collection and recycling of all waste electrical and electronic equipment. It is no longer allowable to simply throw away electrical and electronic equipment. Instead, these products must enter the recycling process.

Each individual EU member state has implemented the WEEE regulations into national law in slightly different ways. Please follow your national law when you want to dispose of any electrical or electronic products. More details can be obtained from your national WEEE recycling agency.
