INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on the purchase of the StereoControl! With the StereoControl you can extend infrared signals from your remote control. In this way you can continue to control your AV-devices which are behind closed cabinet doors or out of sight with your own remote control. The StereoControl consists of an infrared receiver with two connected infrared (IR) LEDs. see Fig. 1.

• In the receiver you find a battery compartment for a 9 Volt battery.
• The two IR LEDs are equipped with a self-sticking foil. In this way, you can connect both IR LEDs to the Infrared display panel of your AV-devices.

HOW DOES THE STEREOCONTROL WORK?

• The receiver is placed directly in sight of your remote control.
• The receiver converts the signal from your remote control to an electric signal and passes it on to the two IR LEDs.
• You can stick these IR LEDs on the IR sensor of your AV-devices. The IR LEDs light up when you give the command with your remote control. In this way, all signals from your remote control are transmitted to your AV-devices.
• StereoControl works with almost all bands and models of remote controls. (with the exception of B&O).

INSTALLING YOUR STEREOCONTROL:

STEP1:

Place a 9 volt battery in the battery compartment at the bottom of the receiver. Pay attention to the correct polarity of the battery.

STEP 2:

Place the StereoControl in a position within sight and reach (max. 7 meters) of your remote control. (f.i. on top of the cabinet which houses the equipment)

STEP 3:

Now lay the cable in such a way that the IR LEDs are in the front of your equipment (f.i. via the backside of the cabinet)

STEP 4:

Remove the protective film from one of the IR LEDs. Place this IR LED on the display panel of the AV-device you wish to control. Push gently. Before attaching the IR LED permanently, it is recommended to check whether it works or not. Therefore, point with your original remote control to the screen of the StereoControl and choose several channels. If the AV-device does not respond, it is possible that the IR LED has not been attached at the correct place. With some devices, this location is crucial. The second IR LED can be used to control a second AV-device. If you do not use this IR LED, do not remove it!

• If you have more than two AV-devices, it is recommended to place the transmitters in the cabinet or on the doors. This needs to be done in such a way that the infrared comes within the scope of the sensors (try out first, before placing them).

USE:

• Normally, your StereoControl is in a so-called rest to spare batteries.
• By pushing a button of the remote control within 50cm of the receiver, you switch on your StereoControl.
• A red light in the receiver lights up momentarily for confirmation.
• After being switched on, the StereoControl has maximal sensitivity and the remote control can be used at a distance of 4 to 8 meter and in an angle of 30^ .
• The StereoControl switches off automatically to rest after 4 hours of not being used.

Frequently Asked Questions

• In rare cases, the receiver can be subject to interference, causing lower sensitivity to signals. In that case, the red lamp burns continuously and you need to move the receiver slightly. This interference is caused by infrared sources in the surroundings, such as plasma screens, economy lamps, etc. Also direct incoming sunlight can confuse the receiver.
• If the StereoControl does not work at all, replace the battery and pay attention to the correct polarity.
