3.5mm to IR Emitter Control Cable (C-A35/IRE-10)
The 5.3mm to IR Emitter
Control Cable is terminated
with a 3.5mm mono mini
plug, illustrated in Figure 1,
which, for example, can be
connected to one of the IR
OUT connectors, on the
Kramer TOOLS TP-9 Audio
/ Video Line Transmitter
Figure 1: The 3.5mm to IR Emitter Control Cable
For some Kramer machines, for
example, the RC-8IR Universal Room
Controller, it is necessary to cut off the
molded 3.5mm mono mini plug,
illustrated in Figure 2. When connecting
to one of the IR OUT connector PINs,
the (+) white striped side connects to the
IR OUT 1 / IR OUT 2, and the (-) black
side connects to the Ground

When attaching the emitter to the IR
Sensor window, note that the emitter has a
clear adhesive layer on the bottom flat
surface of the shell. The rounded side
faces the user and emits visible red light
when a command is sent (see Figure 3).
Just peel off the adhesive cover and stick
the emitter to the center of the IR sensor
window on the front panel of the controlled
device

Figure 4 illustrates a typical configuration
using the Kramer RC-8IR connected to
the Kramer VP-23N and a VCR unit
using 2 IR Emitter Control Cables. It also
indicates the presence of stray IR or RF
interference by randomly flashing when
no IR control signal is being sent.
Reposition the IR receiver or the
interfering source to eliminate or reduce
the random flashing. The more the
random flashing is reduced, the better
the system functions

Congratulations on purchasing your Kramer 5.3mm to IR Emitter Control Cable (C -A35/IRE-10), which is
designed to be installed directly on the IR sensor window of the controlled device. It contains a small infrared
LED housed in a miniature, mouse shaped, black plastic shell. It emits visible red light in addition to IR
(infrared) control signals when activated by IR commands sent to it by IR receivers or other controllers. The
3.5mm to IR Emitter Control Cable comes with a clear adhesive film included on the emitter housing for
attachment to the IR window of the controlled component and pieces of double-sided clear adhesive tape
included for replacement purposes.
When connecting the 5.3mm to IR Emitter Control Cable to one of the two optional IR Emitter Extension
Cables, connect the 3.5mm mono mini plug to the 3.5mm female mono mini connector.
Double-sided adhesive tape is provided. If you decide to move the emitter to a different device,
use this adhesive tape to replace the current adhesive layer for best adhesion
The Emitter shell, although dark in appearance, is transparent to infrared light. Consequently,
commands from a handheld remote control may pass through it. This enables direct control of the
equipment from a handheld remote transmitter, as well as from the Emitter
CONNECTING THE EMITTERS
Note: You must disconnect the power to the device before connecting or disconnecting the IR Emitter control cable.
Attaching the Emitter to the IR Sensor Window
Refer to the relevant device’s user manual if you have difficulty finding the exact location of the IR sensor
window on the device. Note that:
A Kramer 3.5mm to Dual IR Emitter Control Cable (C-A35/2IRE-10) is also available. In addition, two IR
Emitter Extension Cables are also available: a 15 meter cable and a 20 meter cable.
