Connecting the T-4555—Continued
You can use the following multi-room kits to control the
T-4555 when it’s out of range of the remote controller:
• Multiroom AV distribution and control systems such
as those made by Niles
®
and Xantech
®
.
Controlling the T-4555 When It’s Out of
Range
If the T-4555 is located in another room, installed in a
cabinet, or out of range of its remote controller, you can
use a commercially available IR receiver to pickup the
remote controller signals and feed them to the T-4555,
as shown below.
Connect the IR receiver to the T-4555 as shown below.
Controlling Other Out-of-range
Components
If another component is out of range of its remote con-
troller, you can use a commercially available IR emitter
to retransmit the remote controller signals received at
the T-4555’s IR IN, as shown below.
Connect the IR emitter to the T-4555’s IR OUT, and
place the IR emitter in front of the other component’s
remote control sensor (usually located on its front
panel), as shown below. See the instructions supplied
with the IR emitter.
Only remote controller signals received by the T-4555’s
IR IN are fed through to the IR OUT. Signals picked up
by the T-4555’s remote control sensor are not output.
