J-box Infrared Receiver Installation Instructions v1.2
Warning: To be installed and/or used in accordance with
appropriate electrical codes and regulations.
Introduction: Thank you for your purchase of a Knoll IR210
infrared receiver. This receiver features the ability to pick up a remote control infrared signal and relay it on wires to another location up to 1000’ (or more).
Features:
Inwall junction box design available in white, ivory, almond and black colors.
Will relay almost all remote types (except some B & O models).
Can be connected with almost any 3-conductor wire including cat 5.
Requires very little power. using PS1202 12 VDC (200 mA for up to 5 IR210s.
Up to 10 IR10’s, IR210’s and other compatible models can be connected in a single system.
Connects with a three wire connector or RJ45 via cat 5 wire
Installation Tips
1. Follow all local electrical & building code requirements.
2. The IR210 is usually wall mounted. It does not normally require a junction box. For easy installation and to ensure reliability, it is suggested that a PS1202 (200 mA) or PS1205 (500 mA) 12 VDC unregulated power supply, IR31 (single) or IR34 (dual) emitters and one of the following: IR54 (decora

inwall style, 4 output) or IR55 (tabletop style, 4 output) connection block, be used.
3. Wires can be solid or stranded, shielded or unshielded with a minimum of 28-gauge for runs under 200’, 22-gauge for runs under 500’ and 20-gauge for runs up to 1000’. Wires can be looped from IR210 to IR210 or home run. Home runs generally offer more reliability and future flexibility.
4. IR210s can be mixed and matched in larger systems with up to 10 infrared receivers, such as the Knoll IR10 or IR22.
5. To wire the system together, connect the IR210 12V, GND and SIG terminals to the corresponding IR54 or IR55 terminal. Prepare the wire leads to and from the IR210 by stripping about ¼” of the insulation from each of the three leads. Twist the strands tightly together so that they do not stick out of the connector and cause a short circuit. Strictly observe polarity. If you are connecting with the RJ45 connector you may need a RJ45 paralleling strip to parallel connect the wires from multiple IR receivers.

6. Next, plug the single or dual emitters into the IR54 or IR55 connection block.
7. Now, plug in the PS1202 (for up to five receivers) or PS1205 for five to ten receivers.
8. The infrared system is usually left plugged in all the time (to an unswitched outlet) as it uses very little power.
9. Test the infrared system to see if it is working properly. Bright sunlight and passive infrared security systems can lower the distance that remote controls can work with an IR210 receiver. If you have any questions or concerns, please call and ask for infrared technical support at 1 800 566 5579. The Help Line is open from 7:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday to Friday, Pacific time.
