Remote Control
Anywhere! Kit
WARNING – To prevent possible injury, the
following basic safety precautions should be
observed in the installation and use of your
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 swim-
ming 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.

Introduction
The Remote Control Anywhere! Kit
enables you to operate your remote con-
trolled audio/video equipment from vir-
tually any location. Now you can place
your audio/video (A/V) components out
of sight (behind cabinet doors, in the rear
of a room, or in a different room) and still
conveniently control your system.
Kit Contents
Check that your Remote Control
Anywhere! Kit contains the following:
• Connection hub
• Surface mount sensor
•12VDC power supply
• MicroFlashers (5)
• Category 5 sensor cable (50')

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.
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
For your convenience, the sensor cable ends have
been stripped.
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 connector plug into the
smooth side of the socket.
Make sure that the orientation of the connector matches the
sensor (Figure 3).

Step 3 – 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.
“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.
“TECH TIP”
Make all final connec-
tions to the MSU
before connecting the
power supply. This will
avoid potential dam-
age to components.

Step 4 – 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 components.
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 compo-
nent’s front panel. Press but-
tons on the remote control
while watching the front
panel of the A/V compo-
nent. When the compo-
nent 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.
If you get no response at all, call Niles Technical
Support at 1-800-289-4434 (M-F 8:00 AM –
7:00 PM ET).
Step 5 – Mounting the Connection Hub
Make sure that your system tested OK before
proceeding
Once you have decided on the ideal location for
the connection hub, unplug the 12VDC power
supply from the electrical outlet and disconnect the sensor and
the MicroFlasher cables from the connection hub (Figure 8).
The connection hub can be either mounted on a wall using
screws or placed on a shelf using the included adhesive feet
(Figure 9).
