INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
789-44
CONNECTING BLOCK
The Model 789-44 provides a quick low cost means of connecting Xantech IR receivers and keypads to four single or four dual emitters, with a power supply, in an infrared repeater system. It can also provide emitter expansion for various Xantech devices, such as the 590, 710, 792-10, 795-20, 796-20, etc.. The STATUS terminal provides a convenient tie point for voltage to drive the STATUS indicator on certain Xantech products, such as the 78080 IR Receiver (refer to Fig. 3).

INSTALLATION
Fig. 2, illustrates a typical installation using the 789-44 in an IR repeater system. A variety of Xantech IR receivers and a keypad are shown. When configuring a system, please keep the following items in mind:
1. More IR receivers may be wired in parallel, in the same manner as shown, up to a maximum of twelve. More than twelve is not recommended since IR noise picked up by the many IR receivers may cause erratic operation and reduce remote control range.
Note: This restriction does not apply to Xantech SmartPad keypads. These may be added virtually without limit, provided power supply requirements are taken into consideration. See item 3.
2. Be sure to connect the +12V, IR OUT and GND of each IR Receiver and keypad to the respective +12VDC, IR IN and GND of the connecting block as shown.
3. Xantech SmartPads may be used by themselves or together with IR receivers as shown. When you do this however, the higher current requirements of the keypads must be taken into consideration as follows:
a) Each 730-00 keypad draws 65 mA. A SmartPad2 or 3 draws 85ma.
b) Each IR receiver draws 10 to 20 mA (check specs. on actual model).
c) The max. current for proper operation from the 781RG Power Supply is 200 mA.
d) The max. current from the 782-00 Power Supply is 1000 mA.
e) When using combinations of keypads and receivers, do not exceed the max. current of the power supplies as noted above.
