Model 1105 IR Remote Control Below is a view of the 1105 Infrared Remote Control. This full featured remote control can be used to make source selections at the AutoSelector location, or, with an IR receiver installed, select source signals to individual 1176 Wallplate outputs at the Wallplate location. Each Model 1166 or 1156 includes one 1105 remote; additional remotes may be purchased separately.
Installation These instructions address the Model 1176, which is always used with either a Model 1156 or 1166 High Definition Component Video AutoSelector™ as the head end and one or more Model 9878 Cat 5 HDTV Connection Plates (Wallplates) downstream. Refer to the Model 1166 instruction manual for complete directions for installing this product. You may wish to consult with a qualified custom electronics installer if you are inexperienced with DVI, HDMI/HDCP, component video connections and compatibility.
1176 Matrix Router Connections Multiple Wallplates may be connected to a Model 1166 with Model 1176 Matrix Routers. A single 1176 has a capacity of six Wallplates. IR signals sent over Cat 5 through the 1176 are then sent through the 1166 and retransmitted on the IR output jack. IR signals from the 1105 (or other enabled remotes) are interpreted by the 1176 and affect only the output of the Wallplate originating the IR.
1176 and 1170 Combination A combination of 1176s and 1170s may be used with an 1166 to provide multiple Wallplate outputs. The 1166 responds to the 1105 IR signals sent over the Cat 5 run back to the 1176, whereas IR signals sent over Cat 5 and through to the 1170 are then sent through the 1166 and retransmitted on the IR output jack. 1105 IR signals from Wallplates connected through the 1170 do not control switching.
