The system not only allows you to send crisp audio/video from one area to another, it also gives you the ability to control the source using your existing remote control device. It converts the infrared (IR) signal emitted by your remote control to a radio frequency (RF) signal in UHF band at the receiver and sends it back to the sender where the RF signal is converted back to the original IR signal and beamed to the audio/video device.
The following states the use of the remote control feature to control your A/V equipment by using the existing remote control.
1. Simply connect the IR extender plug into the back of the sender and position the IR extender near the A/V source equipment’s front panel.
Sometimes, it may be difficult or even impossible to orient the sender unit such that it can be “seen” (face-to-face) with the A/V equipment you wish to control. (This happens when surface is not adequate for this or you wish to remotely control A/V equipment in different locations withoutre-orienting the LOREX sender). In this case, using the extender will be more convenient.

SYSTEM OPERATION
HOW TO USE THE IR EXTENDER ACCESSORY
The IR extender connects to the sender through its own special connector plug. The extender emits an IR signal to your A/V device with the remote signal. To use the IR extender, follow the instructions below.
1. Plug the IR extender into the back of the sender (see page 5).
2. Orient the end of the IR extender so that it points in the general direction of IR sensors on the source device you wish to control. Cut a length of provided fastener strip to secure the IR extender in it’s position.
3. Position the receiver so that your remote control signal can strike the IR window on the bottom from of the unit. To use your remote control, point it at the front of the receiver.
