INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
WARNING – TO PREVENT POSSIBLE INJURY, THE FOLLOWING BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE
OBSERVED IN THE INSTALLATION AND USE OF YOUR RCA-TT REMOTE CONTROL ANYWHERE! KIT.
1. Read through the entire manual – Before attempting any installation, read this manual
thoroughly and keep it for future reference.
2. Avoid contact with all high voltage electrical wiring and equipment.
3. Keep away from water and moisture – Never use or install electronic products near water, ie.,
near a bathtub, sink, washing machine, in a wet basement, near a swimming pool, or anywhere
else the product may be exposed to water or moisture.
4. Power supply cord protection – Do not run the power cord where it may be subject to wear or
abuse. Do not allow anything to rest on or roll over the power cord which may damage it.
6. Lightning – It is suggested that you remove the power supply from the wall if your system will
not be used for long periods of time. Power surges due to lightning strikes may damage your
equipment.
7. Check your local building and electrical codes – There may be specific requirements regarding
running low voltage in your area.

INSTALLATION
TOOLS REQUIRED
• Pencil
• Drywall saw
• Standard screwdriver
• Phillips screwdriver
• Wire strippers
• Drill (and assorted bits)
GETTING STARTED
While the Remote Control Anywhere! Kit is compatible with most brands of audio/video components,
there are a few exceptions. You should perform a temporary hook-up to test for compatibility
before you conceal wire or permanently mount any parts.
Steps One through Five describe how to perform a quick and easy check for compatibility. Once you
have determined that all of your remote controlled A/V components are compatible, proceed
with the rest of the installation.

STEP 1 – PLACING THE CONNECTION HUB
Place the Connection Hub so that the MicroFlasher wires will reach the components.
Never place the connection hub closer than 1’ away from a television set (Figure 1).

STEP 2 – CONNECTING THE SENSOR CABLE TO THE
CONNECTION HUB
Select four conductors of the supplied CAT 5 wire and strip approximately 1/4” of insulation from
the wire. Insert each wire into the appropriate hole on the removable connector plug (Figure 2),
and snap the locking tab down. To help you, the connector plug is keyed. Insert the smooth side of
the connector plug into the smooth side of the socket. Don’t force the scalloped side of the con-
nector plug into the smooth side of the socket.

STEP 3 – CONNECTING THE SENSOR CABLE TO THE
TABLE-TOP SENSOR
Pull out the removable connector from the bottom of the table-top sensor. Insert each wire into
the appropriate hole on the removable connector plug (Figure 3), and snap the locking tab down.
To help you, the connector plug is keyed. Insert the smooth side of the connector plug into the
smooth side of the socket. Don’t force the scalloped side of the connector plug into the smooth
side of the socket.

TECH TIP: Wire size is expressed by it’s AWG (American Wire Gauge) number. The lower
the AWG number, the larger the wire, i.e., 20 AWG wire is physically larger than 22 AWG.

STEP 4 – CONNECTING THE 12VDC IN-LINE POWER SUPPLY
AND MICROFLASHERS®
Plug the MicroFlashers into any of the sockets labeled FLASHER OUTPUTS on the connection hub
(Figure 5). Plug the connector on the supplied 12VDC power supply into the socket labeled POWER
on the connection hub and then plug the wall adapter into a live electrical outlet. The power LED
should light. If the LED does not light, confirm that the outlet you used is live by plugging in a lamp.
NOTE: MAKE ALL FINAL CONNECTIONS TO THE MSU BEFORE CONNECTING THE POWER SUPPLY. THIS
WILL AVOID POTENTIAL DAMAGE TO COMPONENTS.INSTALLATION CONTINU

STEP 5 – MOUNTING A MICROFLASHER TO A/V COMPONENTS
Make sure all of your remote controls have batteries and that they are able to operate the A/V com-
ponents. Locate a place for the remote control that is within arm’s length of the A/V components,
yet cannot directly control them. Place the table-top sensor no closer than two feet in front of the
remote control (Figure 6).
Hold the MicroFlasher four inches in front of the remote sensor window on the A/V component’s
front panel. Press buttons on the remote control while watching the front panel of the A/V
component. When the component responds repeatedly to the commands, peel off the protective
backing on the MicroFlasher and place the MicroFlasher in that location.
If the A/V component’s remote sensor is not clearly
marked, slowly move the MicroFlasher over the win-
dow of the A/V component while pushing buttons on
the remote control until you get a response (Figure 7).
Repeat this procedure for each A/V component you
wish to control.
When the A/V component responds repeatedly, peel off
the protective backing on the MicroFlasher and place
the MicroFlasher in that location.
