he GefenTV Wireless for HDMI Multi-Room Solution

The GefenTV Wireless for HDMI - Multi-Room Solution sends high defi nition audio
and video to any HDTV display up to 100 feet (30 meters) away. It extends HDMI from

omputers, set-top boxes, Blu-ray players, and other audio/video sources to a remote

DTV display. The Wireless for HDMI - Multi-Room Solution supports resolutions up to
1080p Full HD along with support for up to 7.1-channels of digital audio in PCM, and up
to 5.1 channels in Dolby® and DTS® formats. The included IR emitter can be connected
to the Sender unit and placed by the Hi-Def source*, allowing full control of the source

rom another room simply by pointing the IR remote at the Receiver unit. The Wireless for

DMI - Multi-Room Solution transmits through walls and does not require line-of-sight for

ood reception. Additional features allow multiple units using the included handheld remote

ntrol.

How It Works

onnect one of the included HDMI cables from the Hi-Def source to the Sender unit.

onnect the other included HDMI cable from the Receiver unit to the HDTV display.

onnect the included power supplies to the Sender and Receiver units and to available

lectrical outlets. Connect the included IR Emitter to the Sender unit and place it near the
IR sensor window of the device to be controlled*. Power-up the source and the display.
Within approximately one minute, the “Video” indicators on both units should now glow

olid blue to indicate a successful connection between the Sender and Receiver unit. If the

ender and Receiver units do not pair automatically, the LEDs on the Sender will continue

to blink. Navigate through the on-screen menu and have the Receiver unit look for a

ender unit. If the remote is not available, you can press and hold the recessed pairin
button on the Receiver with a paper clip until its Link LED stops blinking and goes dark.
Press and hold its recessed pairing button on the Sender unit with a paper clip until the Link
LED stops blinking and goes dark. If navigating the menu using the remote, press the OK
button on the IR remote. A message indicating that the Sender and the Receiver units have
been paired will appear on the display. Point the source’s IR remote at the IR window on
the Receiver unit to control the source that is placed near the Sender unit.

perational Limitations

egarding US and EU models, note that all RF devices are designed
by compliance regulation to accept interference from all other
devices. Operation of wireless products is therefore dependent on the

nvironment they are in. Other RF products, even ones that seemingl
might not be in the frequency range, do create harmonics and other
artifacts that could interfere with the operation of the Wireless for HDMI.
