RMT-8IR REMOTE AND 8X1 KVM SWITCHER CONFIGURATION
How to Resolve IR Code Conflicts
In the event that IR commands from other remote controls conflict with the
supplied RMT-8IR remote control, changing the remote channel will alleviate this
issue. The RMT-8IR remote control and the 8x1 DVI KVM DL Switcher both have
banks of DIP (Dual Inline Package) Switches for configuring the remote channel
that both units use to communicate. These settings must exactly match each
other for proper operation.
The DIP Switch bank on the RMT-8IR is located underneath the battery
cover. DIP Switch banks for the 8x1 DVI KVM DL Switcher are located on the
underside of the unit beneath a black piece of metallic tape. One DIP switch
bank (4-switch) is for the adjustment of remote control frequencies and switch
behavior. The other DIP switch (8-switch) is reserved for DL Only mode (page
11). Switches 1 and 2 on the RMT-8IR directly correspond to DIP Switches 1 and
2 on the 8x1 DVI KVM DL Switcher. Only switches 1 and 2 (of 4 in that bank) are
used for IR Code settings.
