RC-8-IR Remote Control

The Vaux RC-8-IR Remote Control may be used to operate the Lattis Matrix Switcher.

When the batteries are first installed, the remote control will use Òfactory settingsÓ for the programmable features it

stores. Upon battery insertion, the red light flashes twice to indicate that the factory settings have been loaded. The

user may at any time change these settings.

The factory settings are:

• Current A/V Device: 01 ( Tuner )

• Default A/V Zone: 01

Batteries should be changed when the low-battery indication is given, that is

the red and green lights flashing simultaneously when a button is pressed.

Although you may continue to operate the remote control, operating range will

be reduced and remaining battery life is short. The Remote uses three (3)

ÒAAAÓ batteries; alkaline preferred.

The remote control has a three-position slide switch which selects the

operating mode; Audio/Video, Lights/App, or MACROs. The Audio/Video

mode is used to operate the Lattis Matrix Switcher, to select A/V sources,

adjust zone volume/bass/treble/mute, etc. The Lights/App and the MACRO

positions are not used with the Lattis Matrix Switcher

There are several special buttons on the remote control; the SHIFT button,

eight Device buttons (Tuner, CD, etc.), the Zone button, the Sec button, and

the Learn button. These are used for multi-button commands or system

programming tasks. The Zone button allows you to change the ÒdefaultÓ

zone stored in the RC-8 Remote Control, allowing you to access different

zones. This default zone is used to uniquely identify different remotes, since

the zone information is included in the transmitted commands. For example, if

you will be leaving the RC-8 in the room(s) for zone 03, you would set the

default zone to 03. Then, when you press buttons on the RC-8, it tells the

Lattis Matrix Switcher that you are Òin zone 03.Ó

To change the remote’s Default-Zone: Press and release the Learn key, then

press and hold the Zone key, until the green led lights; now press two digits

corresponding to the desired zone (eg: 02, or 15). To select a source, press

one of the source selection keys (only the first eight sources are available

when using the RC-8 remote). To turn off the zone, press the Off key. The

On key selects the previous source.

Volume is adjusted using the Volume-Up/Dn keys, and the Mute key toggles the zone’s audio mute. To adjust bass,

first press the Shift key, and then press the Channel-Up/Dn keys, also labeled Bass. Treble if adjusted similarly

using shifted volume keys. Bass and treble adjustment may only be performed in single up or down steps (you

cannot press and hold, as with the volume adjustment). Finally, you may set the zone’s Initial-Volume (the level the

zone turns on at, by first adjusting the volume to the desired level, and then pressing Shift-Limit (the shifted FFD

key).
