Installing the Multi-Channel Infrared Remote control option
The optional Stewart Filmscreen Multi-Channel Infrared Remote control
allows control of the screens from anywhere in the room.
Note: The distance between the hand-held remote control and the receiver
can be up to 50 feet / 15 m. It is necessary to have uninterrupted line-of-
sight between the remote and the receiver.
Preparing the connection
Before making the electrical connections, you need:
‹ An available AC constant power source
‹ A 4-conductor switch hook-up cable (4-conductor bell wire or
category 5 cable is typically used for long runs)
‹ Wire nuts
Making the connection
Figure 12 illustrates the connections.
Note: The IR Channel Selection Switches must be set at different channels.
The factory sets them at 1 and 2.
1. Mount each Multi-Channel Infrared Control box near the screen.
2. Mount each infrared (IR) eye sensor near the screen.
3. Use wire nuts to connect the screen motor power leads to the
MCIR unit leads.
4. Connect each IR eye sensor to the plug-in module located on the
board.
5. Connect the MCIR boards to the AC power source by connecting
the AC line voltage to the black and white wires on the board.
