While it is possible to make wired connections without the connecting block,
it is not recommended. The connecting block reduces installation time, helps
to eliminate errors, allows easy troubleshooting and permits easy system
upgrades later, if needed.
LOCAL SYSTEM APPLICATION
Another application is to locate the IR receiver in a central location, such as
the TV, video screen and/or a speaker. The audio/video equipment can then
be hidden inside a cabinet or located away from the front of a room. This will
give the end-user the ability to direct a remote control to one central location
and not have to worry about aiming to the respective device to be controlled.
Since the IR receiver is in close proximity to the audio/video equipment, no
wiring extension should be required so long as the connecting block is within
reach of the 7-foot cable. The 3.5mm stereo type mini plug is connected to
the “IR RCVR” jack on the Xantech Connecting Block.
IR RECEIVER CABLE WIRING
PLACEMENT
The IR receiver should be located so that it is not directly facing a light
source such as lamps or displays (standard, LCD, and Plasma). When
mounted near a display, it should be flush to the display and away from light
reflections that may occur.
SENSITIVITY ADJUSTMENT
Located on the bottom side of the IR receiver, the sensitivity adjustment
allows fine adjustment of the reception range and performance in various
environments. For example, if there is too much light interference affecting
the performance of the IR receiver, the sensitivity can be decreased. Also, if
the talk-back LED is constantly lit, sensitivity needs to be decreased until
proper remote operation is achieved.

Counter-Clockwise – Decrease Sensitivity
