IR to RF Remote Control Converter
The IR2RF is the greatest thing to happen to the remote control since infrared!
It converts your standard IR remote to an RF remote by simply substituting one battery!
RF remotes are able to control electronic devices from a far greater range and work even out of line of sight.
IR (Infra-Red) remote controls typically have a short range and must be in a direct line of sight of the IR sensor on your equipment. RF however does away with the limitations of IR and even allows signals to travel through walls and floors.
The IR to RF-Kit provides an economical alternative to the expensive RF remote controls available in the market. It converts virtually any remote control that uses AA or AAA batteries into an RF remote. With this simple setup, you can control any device from 30 metres away & no line of sight is needed!
- Converts your IR remote to an RF remote that extends range and coverage
- Use your existing remote between walls and floors up to 30 metres away!
- Simple installation! Just substitute the transmitter with one of the AA or AAA batteries in your existing remote.
- The perfect companion to your existing device and universal remote
- The Receiver also doubles as a battery charger for the supplied rechargable batteries plus a standard AAA rechargable battery. This way, you can use a pair of batteries while another pair is all charging and ready to be used.
Easy Setup
- If your remote control uses two AAA batteries, simply substitute one of them with the RF Transmitter & the supplied rechargable battery
- If your remote control uses AA batteries, insert the RF Transmitter & the rechargable battery into the supplied AA shell.
Position the receiver so it is facing your AV device. If you can't postion it near your AV devices (eg. your AV devices are in a cabinet) then connect the supplied IR emitter to the back of the receiver and position the IR emitter in front of the IR eye on your AV device.
If you have more than one device to control & need more IR emitters, there are 3 eye & 6 eye emitters available as optional accessories.
From now on you can use your remote control without having to point it towards your TV. Take it outside and control your multi-zone amp, or control your pay TV or satellite box from your bedroom. The possibilities are endless.
