The first way: The IR window accepts the IR remote signal. Using the IR remote, the furthest distance is 8 meters when the IR remote is directly faced to the matrix, and 5 meters when the using angle is ±45°. The diagram is shown as below:
The second way: If the IR receiver window of the Matrix is blocked or the Matrix is installed in a closed area out of infrared line of sight, the IR receiver cable can be inserted to the "IR EXT" port to receive the IR remote signal. The furthest distance of using the IR remote is 5 meters when the IR remote is directly faced to the IR receiver head, and 3 meters when the using angle is ±45°. The diagram is shown as below.
