Introducere
The X-10 Powerhouse POWERMID Receiver Model RE549 is designed to extend the range of your infrared (IR) remote controls, allowing you to operate audio/video equipment located in a separate room or behind closed cabinet doors. This system eliminates the need for direct line-of-sight between your remote control and the equipment, providing convenience and flexibility in your home entertainment setup.
This manual provides detailed instructions for the proper installation, operation, and maintenance of your POWERMID Receiver.

Înființat
1. Considerații privind plasarea
- Plasarea receptorului: Position the POWERMID Receiver in the room where your audio/video equipment is located. Ensure the front of the receiver, which contains the IR output, has a clear line-of-sight to the IR sensor of the equipment you wish to control.
- Plasarea emițătorului: Place the POWERMID Transmitter in the room where you will be using your remote control. It should be positioned so that your remote control has a clear line-of-sight to the transmitter's IR input.
- Evitați obstacolele: Ensure there are no physical obstructions between the receiver and your equipment's IR sensors, or between your remote and the transmitter's IR input.
- Sursa de alimentare: Both units require a standard AC power outlet.
2. Conectarea receptorului
- Connect the provided AC power adapter to the POWERMID Receiver's power input jack.
- Conectați adaptorul de curent alternativ la o priză standard de perete.
- Position the receiver so its IR output window faces the IR sensor of your audio/video component(s). For multiple components, ensure the receiver can "see" all of them.
3. Conectarea emițătorului
- Connect the provided AC power adapter to the POWERMID Transmitter's power input jack.
- Conectați adaptorul de curent alternativ la o priză standard de perete.
- Position the transmitter in the room where you will be using your remote control, ensuring your remote has a clear path to the transmitter's IR input window.
Instrucțiuni de operare
Once both the POWERMID Receiver and Transmitter are powered on and correctly positioned, operation is straightforward:
- Point your existing IR remote control at the POWERMID Transmitter.
- Press the desired button on your remote control (e.g., volume up, channel change, power on/off).
- The transmitter will capture the IR signal and send it wirelessly to the POWERMID Receiver.
- The receiver will then re-transmit the IR signal to your audio/video equipment, just as if your remote control were in the same room.
Considerații importante:
- Gamă: The effective range between the transmitter and receiver can vary depending on environmental factors and obstructions.
- Line-of-Sight (Internal): While the system works through walls, the internal IR signals (remote to transmitter, receiver to equipment) still require line-of-sight.
- Interferență: Avoid placing units near strong electromagnetic fields or other IR devices that might cause interference.
Întreţinere
The X-10 Powerhouse POWERMID Receiver requires minimal maintenance to ensure optimal performance.
- curatenie: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the exterior surfaces of the receiver and transmitter. Do not use liquid cleaners or abrasive materials.
- Ventilare: Ensure that the units are placed in well-ventilated areas and that their vents are not obstructed.
- Putere: Disconnect power during electrical storms or when the unit will be unused for extended periods.
