Instruction manual

• Requires Power Supply, Terminator Block and Emitters for IR Repeater operation.
• Mounting: Attaches to any flat surface using the included double-sided tape. The tape may
be applied to the back, top, or bottom surfaces of the IRC-2.0 / IRC-2.1 to accommodate
the installation.
• Power: 12V DC @ 6 mA. Supplied from connected Terminator.
• IR Lens rejects visible light interference.
• Crosshatch Shield (internal) inhibits EMI/ESI Interference.
• Carrier Frequency Acceptance Range: 28 to 90 kHz.
• Control Range: Up to 35 feet, depending on remote strength and ambient noise conditions.
• Control Angle: ±50˚ off axis.
• Room-to-Room Wire Recommendations: Use 4-conductor (min.) 24 gauge unshielded
solid or stranded copper wire up to 1200' (Cat. 5e ok), 22 gauge up to 2000', 20 gauge
up to 3000' and 18 gauge up to 5300'.
• Maximum recommended cable length: 5300' with 18 gauge.

SYSTEM CONNECTIONS
The following are a few typical applications of the IRC-2.0 and IRC-2.1 for IR repeater systems.
A Basic System
Fig. 2 shows a basic plug-and-play installation, such as controlling components that are
behind closed cabinet doors or in a closet.
A Multi-Room System
Fig. 3 is an example of the IRC-2.1 wired IR Receiver in a multi-room system with other
SpeakerCraft IR receivers in various rooms, plus a local IRC-2.0. These control the various
components in the main room or equipment area.
1. Pull 4-conductor wire from each room (home runs) to the AT-1.0 Terminator near the

1. Mount the IRC-2.0 in a recessed cabinet area or under a shelf, using the two-sided
adhesive tape supplied.
2. Plug the IR Receiver and Emitters into the SpeakerCraft AT-1.0 Amplified Terminator, as
shown.
3. Set the DIP switches on the AT-1.0 to EM ON and NET ON or OFF.
4. Plug in the Power Supply.
5. The remote control, fired at the IRC-2.0, should now control the components.
