Capturing IR codes using the IR Learning Station Interface
The Essentia Configurator Software is designed to store IR codes for audio equipment in an IR Library. When the codes are learned
for a given piece of equipment, they are held in the library under that equipment’s manufacturer name and model number. Once
learned, any of the equipment in the library can be imported into a new Configuration.
To learn new equipment codes, the Learning Station Interface box must be connected to your computer at the RS232 port. Connect
the male end of the RS232 cable to the back of the Interface box into the CONNECT TO PC input. At this point, it is not necessary
to have the Interface box connected to the Essentia amplifier.
When setting up a new source, each type of equipment has a pre-selected set of functions. By double-clicking on a function or
clicking on the Record button in the software, you will open the record window. You will see the READY LED light on the
interface box. Aim the source’s remote control at the IR SENSOR on the Interface and press the desired function button on the
remote. The IR learning window in the Configurator Software will indicate the code has been successfully learned. Note that the
remote control should be held 8 to 10 inches from the Interface when learning.
The IR Learning Station is a universal device for Essentia, Concerto, and Grand Concerto use.
