MS- 1 INST ALLA TION & OPERA TION GUIDE MODEL MS - 1 MICROSENSOR ™ MINIA TURE INFRARED SENSOR MS- 1.
I ntroduct ion The MS-1 is a miniature IR sensor designed for use with the Niles Infrared Repeating systems. Installed in a remote room location, the MS-1 receives the IR commands transmitted from your existing hand-held remotes in that room.
Features and Benefits The MS-1 offers a number of improvements over other miniature IR sensors. ● Small size of only 1 /2" diameter by 2-5/1 6" long — fits almost anywhere. ● Universal system — compatible with virtually all brands of A/V equipment and remote controls.
Installation Considerations T ype of Cable The MS-1 connects to the Niles Infrared Systems with an individual home run of 2-conductor shielded cable. Recommended cables are Niles data grade IR cable, .
Receiving Range and Pickup Angle The receiving range of the MS-1 will vary according to the IR output strength of the remote control being used. Remote strength varies among brands depending on the number and size of batteries used, and how many IR emitters the remote has.
Avoiding Electrical Interference Avoid locating the MS-1 near any potential sources of electri- cal or optical noise, such as light dimmers, florescent lighting fixtures, low-voltage lights, and neon lights. If you are installing the MS-1 near a television, keep it at least 6" away from the top, bottom or sides of the TV to avoid interference.
Avoiding Optical Feedback If installing the MS-1 in the same room as an IR flasher , it is possible for the flasher's IR output to be picked-up by the MS-1. This effect, known as an optical feedback loop, can cause erratic operation. Optical feedback is similar to acousti- cal feedback: the howling or whistling sound heard in a P .
2. Hold the MS-1 so that the front of it is facing you, mak- ing sure that the lens is in place. Screw the new bezel onto the MS-1 by turning it clockwise.

Operation This manual contains instructions for the MS-1 only . For spe- cific information on the adjustment and operation of your Niles Infrared system, please refer to the instruction manual included with your Niles Main System Unit. Operation of the MS-1 is straightforward.
T roubleshooting The "flash-back" LED on the front of the MS-1 is a useful troubleshooting aid. The LED should light only when a remote command is being received. If the MS-1 does not work, and the LED does not light at all: 1. T est the remote control(s) by operating the A/V equip- ment directly .
M INIA TURE I NFRARED S ENSOR 13 There are many methods for reducing interference. Which solution is best for you depends on your situation. Contact Niles T echnical Support at 1 -800-289-4434 if you require further assistance. If the LED on the MS-1 "flickers" dimly , and the MS-1 functions normally , there is no cause for conce rn.
