Adding the IR Blaster Option This section describes the procedure for installing the IR Blaster. The IR Blaster provides control of the subscriber’s VCR from the DCP501. It consists of a low-power infrared transmitter attached to a six-foot cord and a mounting bracket. The mounting bracket is a clear plastic holder with a pad of adhesive tape for installing the IR Blaster near the VCR IR receiver.
Page 185: Installing The Ir Blaster
The IR Blaster is now located near the receiver and the VCR can be controlled through the DCP501. As a final check, operate the VCR using the remote control from various positions in the room. If the IR Blaster is obstructing the IR receiver on the VCR, move it slightly.
