Overview

  • Transmitter converts IR signals from your remote into RF signals that it sends to a receiver near your home theater equipment
  • Ideal for use with stereos with speakers in multiple rooms
  • Expandable system has a 100-foot range through walls, doors and floors

Essential Info

If you have speakers or TVs in a separate room from your stereo, VCR, or cable box, you know how inconvenient it is to adjust the volume, change DSS channels, radio stations, etc. Infrared (IR) remotes do not work through walls. You have to walk into the other room any time you want to make a change. But with the Powermid™ you can control your equipment through walls up to 100 feet away.

    How it Works
    Just point your existing IR remote at the Powermid Transmitter. This device converts the IR signal into a radio frequency (RF) signal that can pass through walls. In the room where your audio/video equipment is located, the receiver converts the RF signal back into IR and transmits it to your equipment. The transmitter even blinks a red light to indicate that it is receiving your command.

    Expansion Units Available
    If you need to control equipment from more than one room, add a single Powermid Transmitter. If your equipment is in more than one location, add a second receiver. All the Powermid products work on the same frequency, so expansion is easy. If your equipment is in a closed cabinet, an optional miniature extension IR emitter that plugs into the back of the receiver can be wired into the cabinet to change the channels from another room.

    Reviews

    "I'm fairly disappointed with the product. It is controlling a Dish622 DVR about 75 feet away. I got it working but had to play around a lot with the placement. It is very sensitive to rf noise. Even after tweaking the led glows and flickers even with no input signal. For the price it's ok but I'd go with something better next time." - JOHN - AUSTIN, TX
    "The powermid set is very tricky and only works if you are facing the label on front of the unit. It really is not user friendly. Our operation was more predictable without the powermid unit. You must sell a unit that can communicate with the remote from any angle in the room." - ROBERT W - SANTA ROSA BEACH, FL
    "Simple to install and works exactly as advertised" - CRAIG - HARTLAND, WI
