About the LI900
Most remote control systems have to be operated by pointing the remote control
directly towards a device. Any obstacle between the remote control and the device
disturbs the operating signal. But what if you like to place your devices inside a
closed cabinet, a closet or even in another room?
The LI900 provides the solution to overcome obstacles like furniture or walls.
Your devices no longer have to be placed in line of sight but can be operated from
virtually any location. The LI900 is a RF Extender that is used in combination with
the Pronto Remote Control. The RF Extender receives radio frequency (RF) signals
sent out by the Pronto and converts them into infrared (IR) signals.
These IR signals are then sent out to your TV, DVD, preamplifier and so on.

Possible Set-ups
The RF Extender can be used in several situations:
• Your devices can be remotely controlled while the RF Extender is placed in line
of sight (situation A).
• The RF Extender controls devices placed in an adjacent room (situation B).
• The RF Extender is placed inside a closet, a rack or another piece of furniture
together with your devices (situation C).
• The set-ups in situation A, B and C can be combined. If you want to control
devices in different locations, you have to place a RF Extender in each
location. You can control all RF Extenders with the same Pronto Remote
Control. See Multiple RF Extenders on p. 9 to apply the necessary settings.
