Finding the Exact Location of an AV-component's IR Receiver

1
Remove the protective tape of the Dual IR emitters.
2
Set the Dual IR emitters to the minimal power level, and hold the adhesive side of one
of the emitters 0.4 - 0.8 inch / 1 - 2 cm in front of the AV-component.
3
Make sure the Control Panel is configured to operate correctly within the Pronto
system (e.g.: configured for WiFi, not for IR).
4
Move the emitter across the front panel of the AV-component, and at the same time,
send commands with the Control Panel to the AV-component.
Take note of when the AV-component reacts to the IR signals of the emitter.
5
When the AV-component reacts, position the emitter in that place.

Operating AV-components with the Extender

The AV-components do not respond to commands from the Extender
• Check if the Busy LED blinks green when you send a command with the Control Panel. If the Busy
LED does not blink, the Extender is not receiving commands from a Control Panel.
• Make sure that the Control Panel is configured correctly in ProntoEdit Professional;
• Make sure that the Extender is configured correctly in the Configuration Tool and connected
properly to the AV-components;
• Make sure that the switches on the Extender are set correctly.
There are duplicate Extender IDs
Using the Extender ID switch, assign a unique ID to each Extender in the same Pronto Network.
Make sure the Control Panel is configured accordingly in ProntoEdit Professional.
You can use up to 16 different Extenders in the same Pronto Network.

Resetting the Extender

This is only necessary when the Extender shows unusual behavior.
To perform a reset, unplug the power adapter from the Extender. Wait a few seconds, and plug it in
again.

Firmware Update

When an update of the Extender firmware is available, this will be announced on the Philips Pronto
website: www.pronto.philips.com.
Note You can always see the current version of the firmware in the Configuration Tool.
1
Download the new version of the firmware on the PC and save it in the desired
location.
2
Unplug the Extender. You can now update it in one of the ways described below.
Updating the Extender with the Configuration Cable
1
Connect the Extender to the PC with the configuration cable (this is the crossed
Ethernet cable enclosed).
2
Make sure that the PC is switched to DHCP while the Extender is in configuration
(normally, this should already be the case).
