INTRODUCTIONYour Wireless Infrared Extender Kit consists of a transmitter base unit which receives the IR signal from your infrared controller, and a receiver unit which transmits the IR control signal to your household appliances such as LD and/or VCR systems in another room without cable. The main function of IR extender is to convert the infrared signal into a radio frequency signal, which can extend the effective range of the existing infrared controller through walls, ceiling, or floor. Thus, you can control your household appliances such as TV, VCR, LD, VCD, and Cable Box ... from anywhere at home wirelessly. To adopt with Video Sender system in addition will enhance the remote control function and make your life more convenient and practical.

Installation of IR Extender: 1. Power Supply of IR Extender: 1.1. Transmitter unit: The transmitter unit can operate by using a power adapter : 1.1.1. Using Power Adapter: 1.1.1.1. Plug the input port (AC 110/220V) of Power Adapter into an AC outlet. 1.1.1.2. Plug the output port (DC 12/9V) of Power Adapter into the input jack on the rear of the transmitter. 1.2. Receiver unit: Must apply adapter for power supply only. Please refer to the above clause of item 1.2. (AC outlet)(power adapter) (DC input jack) (back view of the transmitter) (antenna)(IR OUT) option4
2. Installation Process of IR Extender system: 2.1. Connect power supply for transmitter and receiver as per step in item A. 2.2. Insert the attached antenna into the socket on the top of the transmitter and receiver unit individually. (The antenna is optional not for standard Accessories.) 2.3. Set up the receiver unit in front of your electronic appliances (TV, VCR, ...) to be remotely controlled and arrange the unit so that its purple semitransparent window faces the electronic appliances. 2.4. Aim the infrared controller of your electronic appliance at the purple semitransparent windows of the transmitter unit and operate the transmitter unit in the same way as aiming directly at the electronic appliance. 2.5. If the transmitter receives the infrared signal successfully, the purple semitransparent windows of transmitter will flash the red LED light and transmit RF signal to the receiver. 2.6. If the IR receiver receives the RF signal successfully, its window will also flash the red LED light simultaneously and emit IR signal to the household appliances (TV/VCR) and the remote control process is totally completed by now.3. Application Example:RxTxIR LED* Remote Control or Mouse IR LEDIR Sensor5
If You Want To Use Video Sender Together With Remote Control Extender Same installation process as item B) of the paragraph of Installation, but follow a different procedure to install power supply : Use 2 DC cables: 1. Plug the male ends of DC cables into the Output Port of Video Sender, 2. Plug the female ends separately into the DC IN Ports of the IR Extender transmitter & receiver unit.

Trouble Shooting 1. Transmitter unit does not follow the commands from infrared controller 1.1. Check the power supply of transmitter first, 1.2. For batteries power only - Check the batteries and be sure the “+, - ” ends are correct and double check if the batteries still work. 1.3. Check the distance between your infrared controller and the transmitter unit of IR Extender - its effective transmitting range is within 10 meters. 2. If receiver unit does not work, but transmitter unit works with the commands from infrared controller 2.1. Check the power supply of receiver first - normally when the power is on, the semitransparent window of receiver will flash the read LED light once. 2.2. Check the antenna of the transmitter & receiver of IR extender- be sure they are firmly installed. 2.3. Check the distance between the transmitter & its receiver of IR Extender - normally the effective transmitting range at line of sight is about 100 meters. 3. The transmitter & receiver units do work but cannot follow the right commands from your infrared controller 3.1. Check the direction of transmitter semitransparent window of the receiver unit of IR Extender - be sure its direction is to the household appliance to control, 7
3.2. Check the batteries power of the remote controller of your electronic appliance - be sure the batteries are still able to work, 3.3. Check the distance between the receiver unit of IR Extender and your household appliance to control - the distance can not be over 10 meters, 3.4. Confirm the RF frequency of 418 MHz transmitting between the transmitter unit of IR Extender and its receiver units not being interfered - if someone else uses the same frequency for transmitting nearby (such as wireless headphone), the signal will certainly get worse. 4. If you do follow the above mentioned process, double check your IR extender system and the problem still exists, please call your product dealer for maintenance. Warning:•This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the authority to operate equipment. 8

˙ IR Extender Transmitter: the unit Transmitter the data from IR signals and converts the data to 418 MHz ASK RF signals, then transmits data by RF signal. The unit consists of (1) Power Supply, (2) IR Receiver, (3 )Oscillator, (4) ASK Mixer, (5) TX Amp. & (6) Low Pass Filter. (1) Power Supply : Using one 78L05 regulator to convert the 9V DC to 5V DC. (2) IR Receiver : the unit converts the infrared ray signal of the remote controller to digital data for ASK modulator to do the ASK modulation. (3 )Oscillator : generate 418MHz frequency. (4 ) ASK Mixer : to modulate the digital data from IR Receiver with the 418 MHz carrier frequency as an ASK RF signal.
