System Contents
Extension Unit
The Extension Unit senses the Infrared signals
from your remote control. An LED lights to
indicate that signals are being detected. The
Extension Unit converts the remote control sig-
nals into Radio Frequency (RF) transmissions
for communication with the Base Unit.
Base Unit
The Base Unit has an antenna, power cord,
and a jack for the Infrared Extender. The Base
Unit receives (RF) transmissions from the
Extension Unit. A light indicates that a signal
is being received. The Base Unit then converts
the RF transmissions back into Infrared sig-
nals used to control your DBS Receiver. The
Base Unit will operate up to 100 ft. away
from the Extension Unit.
Infrared Extender
This device consists of an Infrared Diode
connected to a 4 ft. extension wire and plug.
It plugs into the Base Unit for situations
where placement in front of the DBS Receiver
is difficult.
Your D940 Remote Control Signal Sender consists of an
Extension Unit, a Base Unit and an infrared extender.
