Connecting an External IR 
Receiver to the VHD 
Controller
If infrared signals from the remote control cannot reach the VHD Controller due to excessive 
distance or obstructions such as walls or cabinet doors, you can connect an external IR 
receiver to the VHD Controller to extend the range of the remote control. See Figure 3-16. 
Figure 3-16. External IR Receiver Connection
Connecting to AC Power
The Vision 140/150 system includes two (2) AC power cords (one each for the VHD Controller 
and projector). 
VHD Controller: Plug the female end of one power cord into the AC receptacle on the rear of 
the VHD Controller. Connect the other end to your AC power source (100 to 240 VAC). 
Projector: Similarly connect the Vision 140/150 to a nearby AC outlet. The input voltage to a 
Vision 140 must be between 100 and 240 VAC. The input voltage to a Vision 150 must be 
between 200 and 240 VAC. 
The LED status window displays an active pattern of segments to 
indicate the projector is changing its state from powered down to 
powered up. “--” appears in the display when the projector is ready 
to be turned on.  
AutoScope Lens Motor: With AutoScope-equipped projectors, a third power cord is 
provided for the lens motor. Plug the female end of the AC power cord into the AC receptacle 
on the rear of the lens motor assembly. Connect the other end to a 110 VAC power source. 
When an external IR receiver is connected to the wired IR input, the 
built-in IR sensor on the VHD Controller is disabled.
