Acoustic Research RF Extender Universal Remote User Manual


 
Congratulations on your purchase of the Xsight RF Extender. Now
you’re ready to unlock your Xsight Touch remote’s ability to control
hidden components or components in another room.
Your Xsight Touch remote (sold separately) sends two signals when
you press a key: an infrared signal (IR) for the devices you can see
and a radio frequency signal (RF) for the devices you can’t. Unlike
IR signals, RF signals can travel through barriers like walls, oors,
and ceilings. This Xsight RF Extender receives those RF signals and
translates them to IR signals the hidden devices can understand.
In other words, with your Xsight Touch and this Xsight RF Extender,
you can put your devices in another room (up to 100ft away) or in a
closed cabinet and control them as if you could see them.

Unpacking
First of all, make sure you have the following pieces in your
package:
An Xsight RF Extender
A power adapter
6 infrared (IR) LED extender cables
Installing the RF Extender
1. Put the RF Extender down close to the devices you want to
control.
2. Find an infrared (IR) LED extender cable for each of the devices
you want to control. For example, if you have a DVD player and a
satellite receiver in a cabinet, get an IR extender cable for each
of these devices. Plug one end of each IR extender cable into the
back of the RF Extender.
