manual abstract
This sounds like a simple proposition, but until now you could only do this by adding redundant equipment or have a very expensive and complicated audio/video distribution system installed in your home. Now You Can… • Reduce the number of boxes in your home – instead of a full stack under each TV, one stack supplies the entire home • Watch any TiVo DVR from any TV • Pause a program in one room, continue watching in another • Play a DVD on all the TVs in the house simultaneously • Hook up an iPod for whole-home music • See what your kids are watching in the basement • Continue to view your movies or programs uninterrupted even if you need to change locations in your home • And much, much, more... Without… • Purchasing additional Cable/Satellite Boxes • Purchasing additional DVRs • Purchasing additional DVD Players • Purchasing costly and complicated universal remote control systems - all you have to remember is RED – GREEN – BLUE Welcome What You Need Tools Small pair of pliers Flat-blade screwdriver What's in the Box? Xtender Xtender Unit SuperCombiner Power Supply for Xtender Universal BOCS Remote Control Xtender Installation Kit Coax Power Adaptor Cable Finder Color Coded Combination Audio/Video Cables (3) IR Blaster Cables (3) Basic Terms used in this manual A/V Device – Anything like a DVD player, VCR, TiVo DVR, Cable box or other device that you plug into Xtender to watch throughout your home Xtender – The main Xtender device – looks like a small A/V device with Red, Green, and Blue lights on the front Wireless Remote – The wireless remote control that came with your Xtender system Wiring Pack -An accessory (purchased separately) that includes all the cables used in a typical installation plus a cable finder tool SuperCombiner -The cable splitter/insertion device that came with your Xtender system Welcome Remote Control Lights - When in Programming Mode – The power light comes on and stays on. Generally you have 10 seconds to enter a command or the remote will exit Programming Mode. Programming Success – The remote flashes the power button light two times Programming Error – The remote fast flashes the power button light for one second Remote Out-Of-Range – Alternating flash of power button light and Xtender Channel lights (Red/Green/Blue) – this occurs if the remote is too far from the Xtender – either move closer to the Xtender or purchase a BOCS Repeater to Xtend the range of your wireless remotes. Welcome What’s on the Front Panel? 2 3 1 1. Learning Window Xtender has the ability to learn remote control codes just in case you can’t find one in our remotes that works. There is a simple procedure to follow in the “Programming the Remote” section. This window is where you point your remote control during that process to allow Xtender to learn to control things that are plugged into it. 2. Xtender Activity Lights These lights flash when anyone in the home is controlling an Xtender channel with a wireless remote control. The Red light flashes when using the Red channel, Green for green channel, and Blue for blue channel. All of the lights glow when Xtender is on, and they all flash together when you are pairing a remote to Xtender. 3. Remote “Pair” Button Each Xtender remote control must be paired to an Xtender – this prevents your remotes from controlling your neighbor’s Xtender as well as the other way around. If you buy an extra remote or one of your remotes needs to be re-paired, just press this button then hold down the “Menu” and “Channel +” buttons on the remote you would like to pair.
