1. Make sure that the A/V equipment is switched on.
2. Point your remote control at the Powermid XS IR receiver. The IR receiver
receives the infrared signal, transforms it into an RF signal and transmits it
to the Powermid XS IR Transmitter. The IR Transmitter then transforms this
signal again into an infrared signal, which is transmitted to your DVD-player,
decoder, video, stereo-equipment, etc. When you want to operate your
equipment from several rooms, you can make use of several additional IR
receivers (Art. no. 09773).

When you can’t place the IR transmitter within the sight of your A/V equip-
ment (because it is in a closed cupboard, for example), then you can place the
IR transmitter next to or on your A/V equipment with the use of an additional
IR Eye (Art. no. 09682).
1. Connect the IR extender cable to the output [F] at the backside of the IR
transmitter (see figure 1).
2. Remove the protection foil from one of the IR LEDs. Place this IR LED on the
IR window of the A/V equipment that you want to operate. Don’t press it
down too much yet. It is recommended that you check the function of the
IR LED before its definite attachment. Point your original remote control at
the sensor on the front side of the IR receiver, and choose a few channels,
for example. When the A/V equipment does not respond, it may be so that
the IR LED has not been attached at the right position. In case of some
devices, the positioning is critical. You can use the second IR LED to operate
a second A/V device. Never remove the IR LED, even if you don’t use it!

I can’t operate the A/V equipment via the Powermid XS.
Consider the following instructions:
• Use strictly new (full) non-rechargeable alkaline AAA type batteries for your
IR receiver.
• Check if the light of the IR receiver lights up when you use the remote
control.
