Precautions
Care
From time to time you should wipe the unit
with a soft cloth. For heavier dirt, dampen a
soft cloth in a weak solution of mild detergent
and water, wring it out dry, and wipe off the
dirt. Following this, dry immediately with a
clean cloth. Do not use rough material, thinners,
alcohol or other chemical solvents or cloths
since these could damage the finish.
FCC Information for User
CAUTION:

or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a
circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/
TV technician for help.
NOTE:
If serial or parallel ports are configured, a filtered/shielded serial or parallel cable is recommended to minimize EMI and ensure FCC B
compliance.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC
rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that

Introduction
About the RFR-6
Most remote controller systems have to be operated by pointing the remote controller directly
towards a device. Any obstacle between the remote controller and the device disturbs the operating signal. But what if you like to place your
devices inside a closed cabinet, a closet or even
in another room? The RFR-6 provides the solution to overcome obstacles like furniture or
walls. Your devices no longer have to be placed
in line of sight but can be operated from virtually any location. The RFR-6 is a RF Receiver
that is used in combination with the RF Remote
Controller. The RF Receiver receives radio fre-
quency (RF) signals sent out by the RF Remote
Controller and converts them into infrared (IR)
signals. These IR signals are then sent out to
your TV, DVD, preamplifier and so on.

Applications
The RF Receiver can be used in several
situations:
■ Your devices can be remotely controlled
while the RF Receiver is placed in line of
sight (situation A).
■ The RF Receiver controls devices placed in
an adjacent room (situation B).
■ The RF Receiver is placed inside a closet, a
rack, etc. together with your devices (situation C).
■ The set-ups in situation A, B and C can be
combined. If you want to control devices in
different locations, you have to place a RF
Receiver in each location. You can control
all RF Receiver with the same RF Remote
Controller. See Multiple RF Receiver on p. 8
to apply the necessary settings.

Installation
The following components should be present:
RF Receiver, power adapter, Mono cable, 3 IR
emitters, mounting plate and 4 screws.
Before you install the RF Receiver, you should
decide which of the set-ups described on p. 3 apply to your needs. It is recommended to read
through this manual entirely.
Working angle and range of the IR
blaster
The IR signals sent out by the RF Receiver always have to be able to reach the remote control
sensor of your devices. Make sure that the IR
blaster (dark plastic window on top of the RF
Receiver) is aimed at your devices.
To get optimal results, it is recommended to
place the RF Receiver horizontally with the IR
blaster facing up or down.
IR blaster facing down
Minimum distance: 4 inches
(10 cm)
IR blaster facing up
Maximum distance: 16 feet (5 m)
Figure 2
Figure 2 represents the RF Receiver with the IR
blaster facing up. The RF Receiver can be placed
at a distance and higher than your devices. Make
sure there are no objects between the RF Receiver and the remote control sensor of the devices.
Figure 1
Figure 1 represents the RF Receiver mounted up
side down inside a closet. Always maintain a
minimum distance of 4 inches (10 cm) between
the RF Receiver and your devices.
