Overview

  • Mounts into a standard electrical junction box
  • Wire terminal on rear for cable connection
  • Talkback LED for confirmation of signals
  • IR reception range of up to 40 feet

Essential Info

This basic IR Sensor comes with interchangeable white and ivory covers to match your décor. Extensive shielding and special ground plane PCB design creates robust immunity to electrical noise. Includes a talkback LED behind a pin-hole in the faceplate so that there is a visual reference to IR commands. Typical range is 40 ft. with acceptance angle of 130°.

Note: If you are installing this sensor close to a LCD or Plasma TV, be aware that there may be some interference. We recommend testing the sensors ability to repeat IR commands before drilling holes in your wall.

What's Included

  • Wall-Mount IR Sensor
  • More Info


    Convert signals from IR remotes into DC that are transmitted along wires to emitters at the audio/video equipment. Install this Wall-mount IR Sensor in a standard electrical junction box or a low-voltage mud ring. Each has the same opening as a Decora wiring device and needs to be finished with a Decora-style trim plate (sold separately).

    The Wall-mount IR Sensor include a wiring terminal on the rear for connection to 3- or 4-conductor cable. Cat. 5 cable is recommended for conections. Additionally, a talkback LED is included on the front for system testing as well as indicating infrared reception. The IR Sensor is powered by 12 volts DC from the IR Connection Block.

    This IR sensor may be used with other models and brands (generally up to 16 on one system) without interference.

    Reviews

    "Easy to install and works well. The small green feedback LED is a nice feature. " - MILES - ELWOOD, XX
    "Too sensitive to sun light. Great otherwise." - JACQUES - LASALLE, QC
    "Works really well, once its "warmed up". I have an LCD TV and when I switch the TV on, the first couple of minutes the remote doesn't work. After that, no problems." - SANDEEP - CALGARY, AB
