Model 1106 IR Remote Control
Each CMX-144 includes one 1106 remote;
additional 1106 Remotes may be purchased
separately, or you may download the IR codes from
www.audioauthority.com. for use in programmable
IR remotes.
This remote control is useful in basic CMX-144
installations for switching source signals to the
main output. For advanced features, such as
breakaway audio switching or restrictions, use a
controller programmed with the IR or serial codes
for the desired features (see page 8).
IR conicts are likely if the CMX-144 is used in the same setting with the Audio Authority
®
Cat 5 Matrix (AVAtrix™).
Use a different control interface for one or both of the units, and lock out IR using the serial command [LI].
