‘NAKED’ [No Shell] EMITTER

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

DESCRIPTION

The 282X is Xantech’s Mouse Emitter without the Mouse! That’s
right, an emitter without the shell! This emitter is for those jobs
where you need that clean & natural look with no emitter stuck to
the front of the device and no wire hanging above or below the
DVD Pl ayer, Home Theater Receiver or other.

This emitter can be placed ins ide the device attached near the units
internal IR Sensor with the emitter wire dressed neatly out the rear
for a perfectly clean IR Control System.

INSTALLATION

ATTACHING THE EMIITER TO THE INSIDE OF THE IR
CONTROLLED DEVICE

• Disconnect the IR controlled device from the AC power
source.

• Remove the top cover of the device.
Note: Consult the device manufacturer’s instruction
manual for possible Warranty issues.

• Locate the devices internal IR Sensor along the front
panel.

• In cases where it is difficult to find the IR sensor, consult
the device’s owner’s manual or locate the IR sensor via
the front panel, using a flashlight to see through the front
window. If all else fails, simply place the 282X emitter in
different locations and see where the most reliable control
is achieved.

• Adhere the 282X emitter close to the sensor (or best

location) using hot glue or other adhesive. See Figure 2.

Note: Be sure to dress the emitter wire away from any moving
parts within the device. It might be necessary to ‘tack’ the 282X
wire down in multiple locations to be sure.

In some cases it might be easiest to ‘tack’ the emitter to a
location on the inside of the devices top cover that controls the
device reliably. This will keep the 282X wiring away from any
moving parts and the devices inner circuitry.

CONNECTING THE EMITTERS

• Simply insert the mono mini plug of the 282X into the
“EMITTERS” or “OUT” jacks on any of the Xantech
Connecting Blocks or Controllers.

• CAUTION: Do not plug emitters into the IN/OUT or HIGH

OUT jacks on the 791-44 or 790-00 Connecting Blocks. To do
so will destroy the emitter!

• Fig. 3 below illustrates a typical basic system using the
282X Emitter.
