MOUNTING
The IR receiver can be mounted to any flat surface, using the two-sided
adhesive tape supplied. Two screws are included for mounting the 3-terminal
block provided with the IR receiver.
An additional feature is a wire channel on the rear of the surface mount IR
receiver. This will give the installer the ability to provide clean wire dressing
in any direction.

PLACEMENT
The IR receiver should be located so that it is not directly facing a light
source such as lamps or displays (standard, LCD, and Plasma). When
mounted near a display, it should be flush to the display and away from light
reflections that may occur.
SENSITIVITY ADJUSTMENT
Located on the bottom side of the IR receiver, the sensitivity adjustment
allows fine adjustment of the reception range and performance in various
environments. For example, if there is too much light interference affecting
the performance of the IR receiver, the sensitivity can be decreased. Also, if
the talk-back LED is constantly lit, sensitivity needs to be decreased until
proper remote operation is achieved.
Clockwise – Increase Sensitivity
Counter-Clockwise – Decrease Sensitivity
