W IRELESS A UDIO/VIDEO SENDER with dual-source input and IR Extender Feature MODEL VK50A OWNER’S MANUAL SENDER - MODEL VT50A RECEIVER - MODEL VR50A INTRODUCTION CONTENTS Your Wireless Audio/Video Sender system consists of a Sender unit which you connect to your satellite receiver, DVD player, etc., and a Receiver unit that you connect to a TV located somewhere else in your home. The Audio/Video Sender converts the audio and video output from your A/V product into a 5.8 GHz wireless Radio Frequency (RF) signal and transmits it (even through walls) to the Audio/Video Receiver. The Audio/ Video Receiver converts the signal back to an A/V signal and passes it through a cable to your TV’s Audio/Video input jacks. INTRODUCTION ........................................................................ 3 You can connect two A/V devices to the Audio/Video Sender and you can select which of these two sources is transmitted to the Audio/Video Receiver - and you can select this remotely, from the location where the Audio/Video Receiver is located. The Audio/Video Sender system also includes an IR Extender feature. This lets you remotely control the A/V products that are connected to the Sender, from the location where the Receiver is located. For example, you could pause a DVD Player in your living room, or change channels on a Satellite Box in your living room, while watching it on a TV in your bedroom.

THE IR EXTENDER FEATURE The IR extender lets you use your remote to control the A/V product that the A/V Sender is connected to. E.G., if the Sender is connected to a DVD Player, or Satellite box in your living room, and the Audio/Video Receiver is connected to a TV in your bedroom; you can control the DVD Player or Satellite box while watching the picture from it on the TV in your bedroom. You do this by pointing your remote control at the Audio/Video Receiver that’s connected to your bedroom TV.
