32USING THE IR/RF COMMAND CENTERThe Dolphin Remote Control (URC-9811) can beused with an optional IR/RF Command Centerwhich receives radio-frequency (RF) signals fromthe Dolphin, anywhere in your home, up to 100feet away*. Once it is set up, the IR/RF Command Center willconvert the RF signals into Infrared (IR) signals tocontrol your home theater devices.NOTE: The Dolphin remote control transmits bothan IR and an RF signal simultaneously. It is youroption whether you want to install the IR/RFCommand Center for extended remote controlrange. If you choose to do so, during testing donot aim the HT Pro Plus remote control at yourhome entertainment devices to verify that RFtransmission is working.NOTE: The RF signal transmitted by the Dolphinremote control, only works with the IR/RFCommand Center.Setting Up The IR/RF Command Center1.  Find a location approximately 8 feet in front ofyour home theater devices. It should provide(line-of sight) access to your equipment and apower outlet to plug in the IR/RF CommandCenter.2.  Plug in the IR/RF Command Center’s powercord and raise the telescoping antenna.3.  Position the IR/RF Command Center so theblack IR Lens is aimed at your home theaterdevices.4.  To test the IR/RF Command Center, take theDolphin into another room in your home, upto100 feet away. Select a device key (e.g., TV)and press it once.Then press POWER once.The device (e.g., TV) should turn on. If it does notturn on, review the steps 1 through 3 and makeany adjustments.Try step 4 again. If you continue tohave a problem, perhaps there is an IR line-ofsight problem. Try adding the IR Signal ExtensionCord. Also review the tips in Optimizing IR/RFCommand Center Reception.Adding The IR Signal Extension CordIncluded with the IR/RF Command Center is an IRSignal Extension Cord for use with a home theaterdevice that is not in direct line-of-sight of the IR/RFCommand Center.If you are having problems remotely controlling ahome theater device from another room, tryperforming the following installation:1.  Plug the 4-foot IR Signal Extension Cord intothe back of the IR/RF Command Center.2.  Run the IR Signal Extension Cord to the devicethat is not in line-of-sight of the IR/RFCommand Center.3.  Using the supplied double-sided tape, attachthe IR Signal Extension Cord so that its LED isover or next to the IR sensor of your hometheater device.LED4. Test the installation by again taking the HT ProPlus remote control into another room in yourhome, up to 100 feet* away. Select a device key(e.g., TV) and press it once.Then press POWERonce.The IR/RF Command Center will convert the RFsignal from the HT Pro Plus remote control into anIR signal and transmit that signal through the IRSignal Extension Cord to turn on your device (e.g.,TV).If it does not turn on, try repositioning the LEDuntil the device can be controlled, then re-attachthe LED.Optimizing IR/RF Command CenterReceptionHere are some adjustment tips for optimizing theoperation of your IR/RF Command Center:•  Aim the HT Pro Plus remote control toward theroom where the IR/RF Command Center islocated.•  Do not position the IR/RF Command Centernear metal objects, such as heat ducts.Metalcan absorb RF signals.•  Make sure the batteries in the HT Pro Plusremote control are fully charged.Try replacingthem if you are not sure (see InstallingBatteries on page 4). Weak batteries will affectthe signal range.•  Make sure that the HT Pro Plus remote controlis not being affected by other RF transmissions(e.g., garage door openers, cordlesstelephones, etc.).NOTE: The tests for range limits of the HT Pro Plusremote control and the IR/RF Command Centerwere conducted in open-air distance tests. Actualsignal distance will be based on the construction ofthe building the unit is being used in, as well asother factors, such as outside interference.*Distance may vary
