IR CODE CONFIGURATION How to Resolve IR Code Conflicts In the event that IR commands from other remote controls conflict with the supplied RMT-4IR remote control, changing the remote channel will alleviate this issue. The RMT-4IR remote control and the 4X1 Switcher for HDMI 1.3 have DIP SWITCHES for configuring the remote channel that both units use to communicate. These settings must match each other for proper operation. The 2 DIP SWITCH bank on the RMT-4IR is located underneath the battery cover.
