This enables you to place your A/V components out of sight (behind cabinet doors, in the rear of a room, or in a different room) and still conveniently control your equipment. The model IRP2+ is an IR Main System Unit. It is one of three elements that make up an infrared extender system: 1. [. . . ] Retest the system according to the guidelines on page 11. · Good Operation: Congratulations!· Poor Operation: Go to Step 16 · Poor Operation: Go to Step 19 B) If you have MORE THAN ONE FLASHER, disconnect all of them and reconnect one flasher at a time. Continue testing until you have identified the defective flasher. · All flashers appear defective: Go to Step 18 · One flasher doesn't work: Return the defective flasher to your dealer · All flashers now work: Congratulations! · 16 Flasher Output Too High Some audio/video component's sensors are overloaded by too strong a command from the flasher. Connect the flasher(s) to the variable output of the IRP2+ and use a 1/8" slotted screwdriver to reduce the output level to minimum (counter-clockwise). Retest the system according to the guidelines on page 11. · Poor Operation: Move the flasher so that it is farther away from the sensor window or off to the side of the sensor window. · Poor Operation: Start raising the level (a quarter turn clockwise each time) and retesting until level is back to full. · Poor Operation Continues: Go to Step 17 · 18 Test Flasher Outputs Reconnect one flasher to the second flasher output of the IRP2+. Repeat Step 16 (adjust flasher level and position). · Good Operation: Congratulations!· Poor Operation: Repeat this step with another flasher. · Poor Operation Continues: Go to Step 19 · 17 · 19 Test Flashers. A) If you have only ONE FLASHER, reconnect it to the other flasher output. Retest the system according to the guidelines on page 11. · Good Operation: Congratulations! Sensors in the Same Room as a Flasher?· If you have sensors in the same room as a flasher: Go to Step 20 · If all sensors are in remote locations without flashers : Go to Step 21 · If you have keypads only: Go to Step 21 16 I NFRARED E XTENDER -M AIN S YSTEM U NIT · 20 Optical Feedback Loop If there is an IR sensor and an IR flasher located within the same room an "optical IR feedback loop" can occur. Replace the IRC-1 Flooding Flasher with an IRC-2 MicroFlasher on the front panel sensor window of each component. Place the enclosed IR blocking cover over each of the IRC-2 flashers. · Good Operation: Congratulations!· Poor Operation: Go to Step 16 (adjust Flasher Level and Position) Retest system. · 23 Disconnect All Sensors and Keypads and Test One Sensor Input Disconnect all Sensors and Keypads.
