5. Setup Instructions
The Binken Wireless HDMI Extender is designed for plug-and-play operation, requiring no software or Wi-Fi connection.
5.1. Basic Connection
- Connect your HDMI source device (e.g., laptop, PC, cable box) to the HDMI In port of the Transmitter (TX) using an HDMI cable.
- Connect your HDMI display device (e.g., HDTV, projector, monitor) to the HDMI Out port of the Receiver (RX) using an HDMI cable.
- Connect the provided power adapters to the DC-In ports of both the Transmitter and Receiver, then plug them into power outlets.
- The devices will automatically pair and begin transmitting the signal. Ensure both your source and display devices are powered on.
5.2. Connecting to Two Screens (Local Loop Out)
The transmitter unit features an additional HDMI output for a local display.
- Follow steps 1-3 from "5.1. Basic Connection".
- Connect a second HDMI display (e.g., a monitor in the same room as the source) to the HDMI Out (Local Loop Out) port on the Transmitter (TX) using an HDMI cable.
- This configuration allows you to view the content on both a local display and a wirelessly connected remote display simultaneously.

5.3. IR Remote Extend Setup
The device supports infrared remote control extension, allowing you to control your source device from the location of the receiver.
- Connect the IR Transmission Cable to the IR Out port on the Transmitter (TX). Position the IR emitter head directly over the IR sensor window of your source device (e.g., cable box, DVD player).
- Connect the IR Receiving Cable to the IR In port on the Receiver (RX). Position the IR receiver head in a location where it can easily receive signals from your remote control.
- When you point your remote control at the IR receiver connected to the RX unit, the signal will be transmitted wirelessly to the TX unit and then relayed to your source device via the IR emitter.
Note: The package does not include a remote control and does not support Bluetooth remotes. Ensure the IR Emitter is aimed precisely at the infrared signal window of the receiving device for optimal performance.
