Using the Power Features
Operating Pronto with RF
By default, Pronto uses infrared (IR) signals to operate devices. IR signals have an
operating distance of approximately 33 ft (10 m).
However, you can choose to have Pronto working with radio frequency (RF)
signals to operate devices from a distance or from an adjacent room. An RF
Extender (not included) is therefore required.
The RF Extender receives RF signals from Pronto and converts them into IR signals,
sent out to the device. Therefore, the RF Extender has to be placed near the device
you are operating with the RF Extender’s sending eye pointed towards the device.
