Xantech Network Router RT16 10 User Manual

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS  
RT16-10  
ADDRESSABLE INFRARED ROUTER  
The RT16-10 is a ONE-IN/SIXTEEN-OUT IR switcher which directs an infrared control signal to any one  
of 16 output ports, any combination of ports, or all 16 as a group. You can control large groups of TV  
monitors (or any other A/V product) from control locations using Xantech IR Receivers or Smart Pads. Up  
to 16 devices may be addressed with one RT16-10. Additional RT-10's can be connected for control of  
larger numbers of devices, such as TV monitors in a sports bar, by using different IR code groups on each  
unit. The "I" and "G" output ports can drive LED indicators placed at each controlled device location so that  
you can see which devices are being addressed at any given time.

FEATURES AND SPECIFICATIONS  
•The RT16-10 requires the XANTECH RC68+ (or RC68) Hand Held Programmer codes, set to a matching  
IR Code Group, to address 16 ports individually or in any combination of groups.  
• GP-ON(groupon)andGP-OFF(groupoff)codesfromtheRC68+selectanddeselectall16portstogether  
as a group.  
• The factory preset IR Code Group is 70. It can be installer changed by use of the RC68+ Programmer.  
• ID CODE SWITCH. Switches 2 ~ 6 of this 6 position  
DIP swtich are reserved for future enhancements.

• The DATA IN and DATA OUT modular jacks allow  
future cascading enhancements.  
• One IR input on a 4-terminal plug-in connector permits connection of any Xantech IR Receiver, Keypad,  
Controller, etc.  
• An LED, adjacent to the IR RCVR INPUT, flashes when any IR commands are received (not just those  
that are RT16-10 specific).  
• 16IR"O"and"G"emitteroutputsand16"I"and"G"indicatoroutputsarelocatedon16plug-inconnectors.  
• The "I" and "G" indicator outputs are current limited to 25 mA, allowing the direct connection of an LED  
without the need for a current limiting resistor.  
• Power Jack: 2.1mm. 12V DC @ 1 Amp. Requires one 782-00 Power Supply for each RT16-10.  
• Universal mounting fits 19" racks.  
• Dimensions: 19" x 3 1/2" x 1 1/4".  
• Weight: 1 lb. 3 oz.

2. Multiple Routing  
IR routes can be established to any desired combination of ports (1  
through 16) for simultaneous operation. This is useful if you wish to  
address smaller groups of units for special purposes. Simply press  
any desired combination of IR routes that you want (e.g., 2, 4, 5, 8,  
11 & 16).

3. GP-ON (Group On - all 16 as a group)  
In this mode all 16 routes are chosen in-  
stantly with the GP-ON command. This is  
useful if you wish to quickly address all  
groups at the same time.

All 16 IR routes remain on until the GP-OFF command is sent.  
NOTE: GP-ON and GP-OFF work in both the Single and Multiple routing modes.  
Future Enahncements  
The ID CODE SWITCH permits specific addressing logic for future cascading enhancements. NOTE:  
Switches 2 ~ 6 must remain OFF (0) except when used with the RC68+ (or RC68) IR commands.

However, when powering IR receivers and keypads directly from the RT16-10, as in Fig. 5, youmust leave  
the factory installed jumper wired between the G and GS terminals as shown. This provides the needed  
ground return for the IR signal. Remove the jumper only when powering IR source devices separately  
and there is a need for electrical isolation.

INSTALLATION  
Fig. 5illustratesatypicalapplicationwhereanRT16-10isusedtorouteIRcontrolsignalsto15TVmonitors.  
1. For this example, it is assumed that Single Routing with Group ON and OFF is required.  
2. Since only one RT16-10 is used in the system, the factory preset Code Group 70 can be used. The  
RC68+ Programmer is set to the same number.  
3. The RC68+ commands 1 through15 (see Fig. 3) will establish an IR route to each TV individually. The  
Group On command will route to all 15 TV's simultaneously.  
Subsequent IR commands specific to the TV's, such as channel Up/Down, then operate the functions  
of the TV or TV's addressed.  
4. In this system, the RC68+ codes are "taught" to a Xantech URC type Learning Remote for use with  
the780-10J-boxIRReceiverortoaXantechSmartPad. Otherlearningdevicesmaybeusedprovided  
they are capable of learning and outputting the RC68+ codes, with carrier, to the RT16-10.  
5. When programming, begin by assigning 17 keys for the RC68+ commands to a keypad or learning  
device.  
Commands 1 through 15 for individual routing and 16 & 17 for the Group On and Group OFF  
commands. Next, assign the keys for the TV function commands, such as channel Up/Down.  
6. Teach the commands into the assigned keys, following the instructions that come with the learning  
device. On the URC and the Smart Pad3, all these commands could go into one bank.  
7. The"IandG"terminalsoneachoftheoutputterminaljacksareprovidedsothatLEDindicators,placed  
near each TV Monitor (if desired) will give a visual indication of the currently controlled Monitor. Refer  
to Fig. 6. Use LED's with an operating current rating of 20 to 25 mA.  
Fig. 7 shows an alternate installation method. In this example, the coaxial cables are used to carry the IR  
control signals to the emitters on 15 TV monitors, along with the RF signals. This eliminates the need to  
run 2-conductor wire to each TV.  
1. UsingtheXantech"XtraLink™"principle, CPL10IR/RFCouplersareusedtoinjecttheIRsignalsonto  
the coaxial cable at the "head end" and extract them at the other end to drive the emitters at each TV  
monitor.  
2. Fig.7alsoillustratestheuseofaXantech789-44ConnectingBlockforcontroloftheTV/Videosources  
as well as the TV Monitors. Note that the 789-44 is powered from the RT16-10.  
3. A Channel Plus DA500 RF Amp in the RF system overcomes the RF signal losses of the RF splitters  
and the long cable lengths.  
4. NOTE: Be sure the long cable lengths between the CPL10 Couplers are connected to the terminals  
marked RF/IR as shown!
