Xantech 28EXT Installation Instructions
28EXT
External Emitter Adapter
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
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.
