USING THE IR/RF BASE STATION
The OFA Kameleon 8-Device Remote with RF (URC-9964B00) comes with an
IR/RF Base Station which receives radio-frequency (RF) signals from the
OFA Kameleon 8 Device Remote with RF, anywhere in your home, up to 100
feet away. Once it is set up, the IR/RF Base Station will convert the RF signals
into Infrared (IR) signals to control your home theater devices.
NOTE: The OFA Kameleon 8-Device Remote with RF transmits both an IR and
an RF signal simultaneously. It is your option whether you want to install the
IR/RF Base Station for extended remote control range. If you choose to do so,
during testing do not aim the OFA Kameleon 8-Device Remote with RF at your
home entertainment devices to verify that RF transmission is working.
NOTE: The RF signal transmitted by the OFA Kameleon 8-Device Remote with
RF, only works with the IR/RF Command Center.
SETTING UP THE IR/RF BASE STATION
1.
24
Find a location approximately 8 feet in front of your home theater
devices. It should provide (line-of-sight) access to your equipment and
a power outlet to plug in the IR/RF Base Station.
Using the IR/RF Base Station

2.
Plug in the IR/RF Base Station's power
cord to the base station and to the wall
plug, as shown in the image to the right:
Power Cord
3.
Position the IR/RF Base Station so the black
IR Lens is aimed at your home theater
devices, as shown to the right:
4.
To test the IR/RF Base Station, take the OFA
Kameleon 8-Device Remote with RF into
another room in your home or up to 100
feet away in an open range. Select a device
key (e.g., TV) and press it once.Then press
POWER once. The device (e.g., TV) should
turn on.
Antenna
IR Lens
If it does not turn on, review the steps 1 through 3 and make any
adjustments. Try step 4 again. If you continue to have a problem, perhaps
there is an IR line-of sight problem. Try adding the enclosed IR Signal
Extension Cord (see“Adding the IR Signal Extension Cord” on page 26). Also
review the tips in “Optimizing IR/RF Base Station Reception” on page 27.
ADDING THE IR SIGNAL EXTENSION CORD
Included with the OFA Kameleon 8-Device Remote with RF package is an IR
Signal Extension Cord for use with a home theater device that is not in direct
line-of-sight of the IR/RF Base Station.

KAMELEON 8-DEVICE REMOTE WITH RF
If you are having problems remotely controlling a home theater device from
another room, try the following:
1.
Plug the 4-foot IR Signal Extension Cord into the back of the IR/RF Base
Station.
2.
Run the IR Signal Extension Cord to the device that is not in line-ofsight of the IR/RF Base Station.
3.
Using the supplied double-sided tape, attach the IR Signal Extension
Cord so that its LED is in direct sight of the IR sensor of your home
theater device.
4.
Test the installation by again taking the OFA Kameleon 8-Device
Remote with RF into another room in your home, or up to 100 feet*
away in an open range. Select a device key (e.g., TV) and press it once.
Then press POWER once.
The IR/RF Command Center will convert the RF signal from the OFA
Kameleon 8-Device Remote with RF into an IR signal and transmit that
signal through the IR Signal Extension Cord to turn on your device (e.g., TV).
If it does not turn on, try repositioning the LED until the device can be
controlled, then re-attach the LED.
* Distance may vary
OPTIMIZING IR/RF BASE STATION RECEPTION
Here are some adjustment tips for optimizing the operation of your IR/RF
Base Station:
•
26
Aim the OFA Kameleon 8-Device Remote with RF toward the room
where the IR/RF Base Station is located.
Using the IR/RF Base Station
OFA Kameleon wRF UG rev 3.fm Page 27 Monday, August 16, 2004 8:19 PM
USER’S GUIDE
•
Do not position the IR/RF Base Station near metal objects, such as heat
ducts. Metal can absorb RF signals.
•
Make sure the batteries in the OFA Kameleon 8-Device Remote with RF
are fully charged. Try replacing them if you are not sure (see “Installing
Batteries” on page 4). Weak batteries will affect the signal range.
•
Make sure that the OFA Kameleon 8-Device Remote with RF is not being
affected by other RF transmissions (e.g., garage door openers, cordless
telephones, etc.).
NOTE: The tests for range limits of the OFA Kameleon 8-Device Remote with RF
and the IR/RF Base Station were conducted in open-air distance tests. Actual
signal distance will be based on the construction of the building the unit is
being used in, as well as other factors, such as outside interference.
CHANGING VOLUME LOCK
The OFA Kameleon 8-Device Remote with RF is set at the factory for
independent volume control of each selected device.
However, you may change the Volume Lock setting to Global Volume Lock
so that a device’s volume is locked to one mode (e.g., to control TV volume in
all other modes). After that you can perform Individual Volume Unlock on a
selected device to set its volume control for independent operation.
LOCKING VOLUME CONTROL TO ONE MODE (GLOBAL VOLUME LOCK)
1.
Press and hold SETUP until the two bottom IR
segments flash twice. The Program Keys
appear as SETUP flashes repeatedly.

the volume controls unlocked.The two
bottom IR segments flash four times
and the Program Keys appear again.
NOTE: The programming mode is still
active as denoted by the flashing SETUP
key. If desired, use the other Program
Keys to continue programming (see Table

USING MACROS
The OFA Kameleon 8-Device Remote with RF includes five Macro Keys, M1
through M4 and POWER. Each one can be set up to perform a repetitive, timeconsuming operation with the press of a single key.
NOTE: . A macro programmed onto the POWER key can only be accessed in the
HOME THEATER mode. Pressing it in any other mode only sends a “Power On/
Off ” IR command to the selected device.
Using Macros
29
OFA Kameleon wRF UG rev 3.fm Page 30 Monday, August 16, 2004 8:19 PM
KAMELEON 8-DEVICE REMOTE WITH RF
A macro can be used to control a home theater operation, to set a favorite
channel, or for other multiple functions you would like to control with one
key press. Moreover, each Macro Key can hold up to 15 key presses total.
NOTE: Programming a new macro over an existing one erases the original.
PROGRAMMING A FAVORITE CHANNEL MACRO
With so many channels available on your cable or satellite system, you can
program a macro that directly selects a favorite channel with one key press.
For example, let’s assume your favorite cable programs are on channel 71.
Use the following instructions to program a macro for direct access of this
channel:
NOTE: . The following example assumes all equipment is turned off and that the
TV is connected through the Cable Box with TV tuning set to channel 3.
1.
Press and hold SETUP until the two bottom IR
segments flash twice. The Program Keys
appear as SETUP flashes repeatedly.
2.
Press MACRO once.The Macro programming screen appears:
3.
Press an open Macro Key
(e.g.,M1,M2,M3, or M4). The lastselected device menu screen, including
HOME, appears.
4.
Enter a macro sequence of up to 15 key
presses. For this example, press TV
once, followed by POWER once, and
then enter 0 3 for the TV’s channel
number. Next, press CBL/SAT once,
followed by POWER once, and then enter
0 7 1 for the Cable Box’s channel
number.
NOTE: If there are more than 15 key presses in the sequence, the bottom
IR segments display a long flash denoting an error. The display returns to
the last-selected device menu screen. To program the macro, start again
with step 3.
