5. Setup Instructions
Follow these steps to properly set up your ATEN 2XRT-0004G IR Emitter:
- Identify the IR Output Port: Locate the IR output port on your IR extender, receiver, or control system. This port is typically labeled "IR Out" or "Emitter."
- Connect the Emitter: Plug the connector of the ATEN 2XRT-0004G IR Emitter into the identified IR output port. Ensure a secure connection.
- Position the Emitter Head: Place the IR emitter head directly over or very close to the IR receiver window of the device you wish to control (e.g., TV, DVD player, cable box). The emitter head should be positioned so that its emitted IR signal can be received by the target device.
- Secure the Emitter (Optional): If the emitter head has an adhesive backing, remove the protective film and carefully attach it to the target device, ensuring it does not obstruct any vents or buttons.
- Test Functionality: Once connected and positioned, test the system by using your remote control. Ensure that the target device responds to commands.
6. Operating Instructions
The ATEN 2XRT-0004G IR Emitter operates by transmitting infrared signals from your IR extension system to your controlled devices. No direct user interaction with the emitter itself is required during operation.
- Ensure your IR extension system is powered on and functioning correctly.
- Point your remote control at the IR receiver of your IR extension system (if applicable).
- The IR emitter will then relay the signal to your target device.
