IR CODE CONFIGURATION
Why would I need to change the remote channel?
In some instances, the 2:8 Distribution Amplifi er for HDMI may use IR codes that
confl ict with other IR remote control devices. The unit may switch inputs when
another brand IR remote control is used or the RMT-2IR may cause other brand IR
controlled devices to behave unexpectedly.
I am experiencing the issues listed above. What do I do?
In these cases it is recommended to change the IR channel that the RMT-2IR remote
control and the 2:8 Distribution Amplifi er for HDMI use. The IR channel is confi gured
independently on the RMT-2IR remote control and the 2:8 Distribution Amplifi er for
HDMI but the channel selection must match on both units for proper operation.
How Do I change the Remote Channel?
There are service DIP switches on the RMT-2IR remote control and also inside the
2:8 Distribution Amplifi er for HDMI. Use the diagrams below to locate and change the
IR channel to one that is not the default. Remember that the channel must match on
both the unit and remote control for successful operation.
