7. Using the remote controller
with Radio Frequency
Warning:
To use the remote controller with radio frequency
(RF), you need an RF Receiver, which is not
included in package.
By default, the remote controller uses infrared
(IR) signals to operate devices. This means that
you have to point the remote controller’s sending
eye towards the device you are operating. IR
signals have an operating distance of 10 meters
(33 feet).
Getting the Maximum out of it
You can select to operate devices using radio
frequency (RF) signals instead of IR signals. RF
signals have an operating distance of
approximately 20 meters (66 feet) in house and ,
unlike IR signals, is able to go through obstacles
like furniture or walls. The RF signals sent out by
the remote controller are picked up by the RF
Receiver. The RF Receiver translates the RF
signals in IR signals and sends the IR signals to
the appropriate device.
Therefore, the RF Receiver has to be placed near
the device you’re operating with the RF
Receiver’s sending eye pointed to the device.
Your devices will always receive IR signals either
directly from the remote controller or from the RF
Receiver.
