1. Plug in the IR sensor and emitters as shown.
Note: Since the IRD4 employs emitter current shar-
ing, you may use ELAN IRE1, IRE1D, IRE2, IRE2D,
IRE3, and/or IRE4 IR Emitters in any combination.
Other standard 12V IR emitters can also be used.
2. Set the dipswitches to LP ON and NET ON or NET OFF
(see p. 2).
3. Connect the power supply.
4. The IRD4 system should now control the components.
B Multi-Room System
See Fig. 3 for an example of a multi-room (not multi-zone)
system. Three remotely located IR sensors and one local IR
sensor are routed to three IR devices.
1. Pull Cat-5 wire from each room (home runs) to the IRD4 near
the controlled components.
Note: MAX DISTANCE of ALL Wire Runs is 2000 ft using
Cat-5 cable. When using long lengths, the dipswitch must
be set to the NET ON position and a 500 Ohm resistor must
be used (see p. 2).
2. Connect IR sensors in each room to the wire runs as shown.

brightness, if desired.

Fig. 3
4. LP/HP IR OUT-Two 3.5mm jacks drive two mini-emitters at
low power or two high-output emitters at high power.
5. Dipswitches:
• LP ON/HP ON-Switches between low power and high
power on LP/HP IR OUT connectors.
• NET OFF/NET ON-allows the IR IN and IR SENSOR
inputs to be terminated with a 500Hz resistor (NET
ON), or un-terminated (NET OFF). The NET ON posi-
tion should be chosen when using long lengths of
wire (over 50') between the IR sensor, keypad,
etc., and the IRD4. If using two or more IRD4s in a
parallel network system (see Fig. 4), be sure only
ONE of the IRD4 terminators is set to the NET ON
position.
CAUTION: The HP ON position causes the IRD4 to produce a
high-output signal. Be sure to return the dipswitch to LP ON
position when driving mini-emitters. Failure to do so will
damage the emitters!
6. 12V DC REGULATED-Connect PWR2 Power Supply.
7. STATUS IN 5-24V DC-2.1mm jack, TIP = +, Sleeve = -
GND accepts 5V through 24VDC power dupply. Provides
power for STATUS indicators on keypads, IR sensors, etc.
8. IR SENSOR-Use included cable to connect IR sensors to the
IRD4.
Stand-Alone System Connections
Note: For ELAN system connections, please refer to the appro-
priate ELAN Multi-Room Controller’s installation manual.
A. Basic System
Fig. 2 shows a typical stand-alone IR routing application. A
single IR sensor is being routed to three IR devices.
3. Connect the wires from each of the IR sensors to the
appropriate connection terminals on the IRD4.
4. Connect the various emitters to the IRD4.
5. Set the dipswitches to LP ON (or HP ON if using high-output
emitters) and NET ON.
6. Plug the local IR sensor into the IR SENSOR jack.
7. Plug in the power supply.
8. The IRD4 should now control the components.
STATUS Brightness
Fig. 3 also shows how a resistor can be added to reduce the
brightness of the STATUS LED’s on ELAN IR sensors. In this
example, a PWR2 12VDC Power Supply is used to indicate
ON/OFF status of an AV Receiver. Choose a resistor value that
achieves the desired brightness (about 2.2k to 12k, 1/8 W).
Connect it in series with the STATUS terminal on each IR
sensor, as shown.
Bi-Directional IR Control
Fig. 4 is an example of a two-room system using two IRD4s for
bi-directional control on a common IR network. This type of
connection permits IR sensors or keypads located in each room
to control the sources in both rooms, whether local or remotely
located.
1. Pull Cat-5 wire between each room and connect to the IRD4s
as shown.
2. Connect the local IR sensors in each room to the IR SENSOR
jacks or in parallel with the Cat-5 runs at the IRD4
connection terminals.
3. Plug the various emitters into both IRD4s
