Xantech HDMI4X1 User Manual

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

DESCRIPTION 
The 28EXT External Emitter Adapter is placed between a Xantech IR system and a list of approved 
electronic equipment that feature a rear panel IR input jack. These input jacks accept electrical IR 
commands without the carrier frequency, and are therefore not compatible with full range IR Receivers that 
output a carrier frequency along with the IR commands, such as all Xantech IR Receivers. The 28EXT 
interfaces and adapts a Xantech IR receiver to these rear panel IR inputs.  

 

INSTALLATION 
•  Before making any connections: 

•  Confirm that the source equipment to be controlled is one of the devices in table A below.  

•  Table A below may indicate the need for a Wire-Swap Connector for some source units. If your device 

to be controlled requires this connector, make sure that it is securely plugged into the 28EXT output 
connector (the one with the black connector and the warning tag). Otherwise damage to your source 
unit or the 28EXT may occur, and such damage will not be covered under warranty. 

•  The 28EXT may not be compatible with non-Xantech IR Receivers and Connecting Blocks.
