OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS POWERMID®DUAL POWER
1. Place the (flat) PowerMid® Receiver in the room that contains the audio / video equipm
you want to control. Hook up the supplied adaptor and plug it in a 230V wall socket. If
there’s no socket close enough, you can also place 4 ‘C’-cell batteries in the battery
compartment. Please check if the polarity is correct. The receiver operates max. 5.000 hou
on four C-size Alkaline batteries. To save batteries, you can switch off the device by sliding
the switch at the bottom to ‘OFF’.
Make sure the front of the unit is facing your IR controlled A/V equipment, and place the
antenna upwards. Make sure the unit is located maximum 6 meters away.
2. Plug the PowerMid® Transmitter into a
230V socket in the room from you want to
remote control your equipment from. Make
sure that the front side (with the Marmiteklogo) is pointed towards you, maximum 5
meters away. Fully extend the antenna.
3. Point your remote control at the
PowerMid® Transmitter. It receives the IRsignals from your remote control and transmits
these to the PowerMid® Receiver. The PowerMid® Receiver then re-transmits these infrare
signals to your TV, VCR, stereo, etc. Add more Transmitters (art. no. 09481) to use your
remote controls in several rooms. Add more
Receivers (art. no. 09482) to control equipment
in different rooms.
When it’s not possible for you to place the
Receiver in front of your equipment (for
example when it’s behind cabinet doors), you
can use the supplied wired Infrared LEDs RX
570. Plug the extender into the rear of the
receiver, and attach one of the black IR

emitters to the IR Receiver of the equipment
you want to control. The extender has three IR
emitters, so you can control up to three
devices. Never cut off an IR emitter! This may
harm your PowerMid®.
Some satellite receivers require more careful
positioning of the Powermid system. If any
difficulty is encountered, try to move the
PowerMid® Receiver a little in various positions
until it operates correctly.
Note: The Transmitter and Receiver will most likely be in different rooms (up to 25 meters
away). The range is depending on:
• The number of floors and walls the signal has to travel through and the materials these
walls and floors are made of.
• Other 433MHz sources (e.g. wireless head phones, wireless speakers) can effect the ran
of the PowerMid®. The best range will be achieved when these sources are switched o
while using the PowerMid®. Cordless telephones will not affect the PowerMid®.
