Chapter 2 - Getting Started
Installing The Base Unit
The SUR-BU base unit is equipped with 4 IR emitting LEDs which are positioned
in a North, South, East and West configuration to flood the room with IR
signals. Place the unit so the IR transmission can be “seen” by the IR receiving
windows on your TV, VCR, DVD and A/V equipment. You may want to
experiment to find a location that gives the best results. Rubber feet for table
top placement and screws for wall mounting are included.
1. Plug AC adapter into AC adapter jack on base unit and into 120V
AC wall outlet.
2. Set address code if necessary. See page 10, Setting the RF Address
for more information.
3. Position base unit so that it is aimed at equipment. Use IR blaster cable for equipment out of directional
range.
Using the IR blaster cable
The IR blaster cable can be used with individual pieces of equipment that face
different directions, are located in a cabinet or otherwise not in direct line of sight
with the base unit. The cable comes with double stick tape on both sides to allow
attachment directly to a device or to aim at several devices. Contact Sima at
800-345-7462 if additional IR blaster cables are needed.
Installing Batteries
The SUR-47 operates on four AAA Alkaline batteries (not included). Batteries must be inserted before you can
operate the SUR-47.
