4 Device installation

As per the nature of the IR communication system and the IntesisHome device design, the IntesisHome device can be installed on a wall mounted position (Figure 4-1) or in a desktop position (Figure 4-2).

4.1 Wall mounted position

If you want to place the device attached to the wall, please consider any of the three options below (A, B or C).

In all cases, thanks to the IR technology, you can take advantage of IR signal rebounds and place the device in the best location you can imagine.

Figure 4-1 Wall mounted position options

Case A: Installed side-by-side with the AC unit. In that case, the signal will travel from the

IntesisHome device to the AC unit tacking advantage of the rebounds on the floor or other furniture present in the room.

Case B: Installed in front of the AC unit. In that case, the signal will travel from the IntesisHome device directly to the AC unit.

A B

CAUTION: To ensure regulatory compliance, use only the provided power supply.

IMPORTANT: Keep in mind that some furniture and materials (carpets, curtains, glass,

metal…) may affect on the IR communication.

NOTE: The IntesisHome device has 2 IR emitters pointing at 2 different locations. Considering this and IR reflections, valid locations for the IntesisHome device may be many and very different depending on each installation. Check section 4.4 for more information.
