CC-IRC IR Emitter Overview

The IR Emitter adheres directly to the IR control window of your
equipment by using clear two-sided tape to securely adhere the opaque
shield. This “standard configuration” allows you to control your equipment
either from either IR emitters or a hand-held remote control.

The two black adhesive-backed window shields (Figure 3) are included
within each emitter package and allow for alternate configurations. With
this shield (surrounding the internal emitter), you can restrict IR reception
through the device’s control window by blocking any interference or IR
signals produced by sources other than the internal emitter. Without this
shield, any incoming IR signal can pass through to the IR control window
and overlap signals sent via the emitter (Figure 1).

Note: Each CC-IRC package is shipped with four sealed alcohol pads
which can be used to clean any adhesive residue left from a previous
installation of the window shield on the surface of a device’s IR
control window.

Pass-Through Configurations

This method allows IR signals generated from hand-held remotes to easily
pass through the opaque red shell/cover. The internal IR LED can be
oriented to either face towards or away from the shell (Figure 1),
depending on its output configuration. Use the low-output configuration
when device is being saturated by an IR signal. Use the high-output
configuration when the device isn’t receiving enough of an IR signal and
requires more strength. The side with the round “bump” is the high-output
side.
