ISM4 INSTALLATION & PROGRAMMING MANUAL
15
6. Using a Xantech 10-Foot Mono Cable (Xantech Part No 06017450) connect the Common “IR Out “ on the
multi-zone controller to the IR Control Jack on the ISM4 Rear Panel. This will allow IR control of the ISM4
and pass through of IR commands from the multi-zone controller to the source devices.
7. There is no required emitter connection to Source 1 in this application.
8. Label the Sensor and Common IR wires for reference.
Source 2 (DVD Player)
10. Using a shielded male to male RCA-RCA video cable (Composite Video Cable) with gold ends, connect the
Composite Video Output of the DVD Player to the SMVID01 RCA sensor head.
11. Either plug the sensor head directly into the multi-zone controller DVD Composite Video Input or connect
a shielded female to male RCA-RCA cable with gold ends to the sensor head and then to the multi-zone
controller DVD Composite Video Input.
12. Plug the SMVID01 3.5mm mini plug into the ISM4 Source 2 “Sense In” Jack.
13. Turn the DVD Player ON. The SMVID01 Status LED should illuminate red. (The Source 2 Status LED on the
ISM4 Front Panel should also illuminate solid green. For now, disregard any other front panel LED activity.)
14. Turn the DVD Player OFF. The SMVID01 Status LED should turn off. If it does not turn off, adjust the
sensitivity to the point where the Status LED turns off. (The Source 2 Status LED on the ISM4 Front Panel
should also turn off. For now, disregard any other front panel LED activity.)
NOTE: Some devices have a constant signal output on the composite video output jack (many cable boxes
and other devices) and are not compatible with video sensing. If adjusting the sensitivity on the SMVID01 with
the DVD player (or other device) OFF does not turn the Status LED OFF, another sensing method must be
used, such as a switched outlet on a cable box as shown in Figure 6.
15. Remove the protective backing from an IR Emitter head. Carefully attach the emitter over the IR eye of the
DVD Player. If the eye is not obvious, shine a small flashlight into the faceplate to locate it or refer to the
product manual.
16. Carefully pull the emitter wire to the back of the DVD Player and over to where the ISM4 is located. Be
careful not to pinch the wire between components or block the disc drawer.
17. Plug the Emitter 3.5mm mini plug into the ISM4 Source 2 “IR Out “Jack.
18. Label the sensor and emitter wires for reference.
Source 3 (Cable Box)
Follow the instructions for Source 1 (A/V Receiver), for voltage sensing. The switched outlet on most cable
boxes must be configured in the Cable Box Setup Menu. Be sure the AC Convenience Outlet is set to:
Switched.
Source 4 (Video Recorder)
Follow the instructions for Source 2 (DVD Player), for video sensing.
