  • More Info


    Easy installation and configuration allow you to create a pathway of complete system control. Mount the IRC-2.1 Surface-Mount IR Receiver on a flat surface in furniture recesses, under shelves, etc., using the supplied double-sided tape. This IR receiver features ambient noise suppression as well as system status and an IR activity LED, and it can safely be placed near plasma screens. The IR receiver comes with stripped ends plus a 4-conductor terminal strip allowing interface connections to in-wall room-to-room wiring. This IR receiver sends your remote control's infrared commands to the connecting block, which distributes commands to the desired component.

    The AT-1.0 Amplified Terminator Unit has an amplified circuit for driving standard emitters or high-powered blasters, and it may be cascaded for additional emitter output jacks to power all of your A/V components remotely through this IR repeater. Emitters connect through this terminal block. The PS-1.0 Regulated Power Supply also connects to the AT-1.0 Amplified Terminator Unit to power it as well as the IR emitters and receivers. The PS-1.0 Regulated Power Supply is a regulated 12V DC 200mAmp power supply. For larger systems, use the 12V DC 1.2A Regulated Power Supply instead.

    Four IRE-1.0 Single IR Emitters are included with the IRC-3.0 SmartPath Kit to control four of your components. Each IR emitter is on an 8-foot lead, and an EZ-Docker holster holds the emitter in place on an audio or video component and allows quick removal when changing components for service.

    This kit is also available with a shelf-top IR receiver. Additional components and accessories are also available, including extension cables for greater distance between IR receivers and their controlled components.

    The AT-1.0 Amplified Terminator Block, 12-Volt DC 200mA Regulated Power Supply, IRE-3.0 IR Emitters, and IRC-2.1 Surface-Mount Mini IR Receiver are also available to be purchased separately.

    SpeakerCraft products are to be sold to U.S. addresses only.

    RICHARD -- lucas, TX   2/9/2009
    Complete package, easy install, works great.
    STEVEN -- westbury, NY   1/20/2009
    You have to be directly in line with the receiver. Once you move off the center position the unit will not respond to the remote.
    JIM -- hoffman estates, IL   12/4/2008
    The IR rcvr works well. However after a month and a 1/2 I am noticing that in the dark the blue light will flicker. Normally the blue indicationlight only comes on when you press a key on the remote controll. Also the green light status indicating on appears to never have worked. Installation was easy and conections good. Next is a call to customer service.
    MARTIN -- new york, NY   4/11/2008
    SmartPath IR systems are great. I use them in most of my installations, they are very reliable. The installation process is simple and with some previous planning you can create an IR network an place your equipment out of sight anywhere in your home.
    RONALD -- haverhill, MA   2/10/2008
    Awefull reception. You have to point directly at the transmitter for it to work.
    ROBERT -- livingston, TX   6/23/2007
    It works very well and performs as stated by SmartHome sales rep.
    JOHN -- penfield, NY   6/21/2007
    The restriced angle of view of the sensor reduces the utility for off axis viewers. The previous version I purchased was non-functional with a plasma TV and operated only on the lower carrier frequency band. Neither of these drawbacks was noted in the ad. Very misleading.
    WENDELL -- la mesa, CA   5/4/2007
    My sales rep was knowledgeable - attentive and when ever I need something again - I will definitely use smart home again! Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns.
    ERIC -- mccordsville, IN   4/19/2007
    They perform pretty well. Sometimes the channel does not change on the first or second or even third try. However, it seems to work if the remote is aligned properly or after we move the red eye around on the receiver or cable box. Overall, we are satisfied.
    JORGE -- miami lakes, FL   4/2/2007
    excellent product
    DAVID -- fort worth, TX   3/17/2007
    Product installed easily and works as described. Nicely done.
    JOSEPH -- little egg harbor, NJ   3/16/2007

    PHIL -- coatesville, PA   3/15/2007
    Product is great
    JOSEPH -- culver city, CA   2/22/2007
    Very narrow angle on the IR Receiver. Remote must face the receiver at an almost straight line for it to work.
    JASON -- avon lake, OH   2/21/2007
    Easy set-up. Works great
    ERIC -- chatham, NJ   12/13/2006
    This kit works very well. It is expensive, but the build quality is apparent. It is easy to set up and allows flexibility to expand the system.
    BILL -- lenexa, KS   11/29/2006
    Excellent product. Easy to install and works as advertised.
    ROBERT -- rancho santa fe, CA   10/5/2006
    surface mounts do not re-stick once they have been removed. You should include more substitutes.
