Features (Refer to Fig. 1)

1. Connection Terminals accept wire sizes 14 to 28 AWG for

connection of:

• +12V DC-Powers connected IR sensors, keypads, etc.

• GND-Return for Power, IR signal and STATUS indicators

• ST OUT-Connects STATUS voltage to STATUS indicators

on IR sensors, keypads, etc.

• IR IN-Receives IR control signals from IR sensors,

keypads, etc.

2. Mounting Holes-Attach the IRD4 to any flat surface

using the two screws provided.

3. LP IR OUT-Two 3.5mm jacks drive two emitters at low power.

4. Set the dipswitches to LP ON (or HP ON if using high-

output emitters). Set NET ON at one of the IRD4s and NET

OFF on the other one.

5. Plug a power supply into only ONE of the IRD4s.

6. All components should now be controllable from either room.

Note: Up to ten IRD4s may be wired into other rooms on

the same IR network. In every case, be sure only ONE of

the dipswitches on the network is set to the NET ON posi-

tion – all the others must be set to NET OFF!

High-Output Emitter Operation

Fig. 5 shows a typical basic system using the ELAN IRE3 High-

Output Emitter to control a stack of components.

1. Plug the IRE3 High-Output Emitter into the LP/HP IR OUT

port on the ELAN IRD4 (see Fig. 5).

2. Set the dipswitch on the unit to the HP ON position.

CAUTION: The HP ON position sets the IRD4 to high output

power. Be sure to return the dipswitch to LP ON position when

driving normal mini-emitters. Failure to do so will damage the

emitters!

3. Connect power to the IRD4. Assuming other system con-

nections have been properly made, the components will now

respond to high-output emitter control.

Note: Use a PWR3 Power Supply when connecting two or

more high-output emitters.

Introduction

The ELAN IRD4 is a single input, four output Amplified IR

Connection Block designed to provide a convenient way of

interconnecting IR control products. This unit includes a

robust, wide-bandwidth amplifier with reverse voltage protec-

tion so that it has the ability to drive both mini-emitters and

high-output emitters reliably.

Limited Warranty

ELAN HOME SYSTEMS, L.L.C (ELAN) warrants this product to be free from defects in

materials and workmanship for five (5) years from date of purchase. If within the warranty

period purchaser discovers such item was not as warranted above and promptly notifies

ELAN in writing, ELAN shall repair or replace the items at the company’s option. This war-

ranty shall not apply (a) to equipment not manufactured by ELAN, (b) to equipment which

shall have been installed by other than an authorized ELAN installer, (c) to installed equip-

ment which is not installed to ELAN’s specifications, (d) to equipment which shall have

been repaired or altered by others than ELAN, (e) to equipment which shall have been sub-

jected to negligence, accident, or damage by circumstances beyond ELAN’s control,

including, but not limited to, lightning, flood, ,electrical surge, tornado, earthquake, or any

other catastrophic events beyond ELAN’s control, or to improper operation, maintenance or

storage, or to other than normal use of service. With respect to equipment sold by, but not

manufactured by ELAN, the warranty obligations of ELAN shall in all respects conform and

be limited to the warranty actually extended to ELAN by its supplier. The foregoing war-

ranties do not cover reimbursement for labor, transportation, removal, installation, or other

expenses which may be incurred in connection with repair or repacement.

Except as may be expressly provided and authorized in writing by ELAN, ELAN shall not be

subject to any other obligations or liabilities whatsoever with respect to equipment manu-

factured by ELAN or services rendered by ELAN.

LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A

PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

Power Requirements

Power Supply Note: The ELAN PWR2 12VDC 200mA Power

Supply is adequate for most installations using only ELAN IR

sensors. However, if you use one or more keypads in the

system, be sure to add up all the currents for each keypad, IR

sensor, IR emitter and High-Output emitter (if used) and deter-

mine the total current (see specifications for the keypads, IR

sensors, etc.). If the total current exceeds 200mA, then the

ELAN PWR3 +12VDC 1.5A power supply should be used.
