BPS learning infrared receiver

The BPS may be taught to recognise up to 8 different infrared (IR) codes from a standard IR remote control. When a key on the remote control is pressed during normal operation, the BPS will react as though one of its 8 buttons has been pressed.

The BPS does not have to be part of a networked system to learn IR codes, all that is required is PoE power and the donor remote control:

To enter Learn Mode:

1. Enter by holding down the bottom two buttons while pressing and releasing reset.

The buttons will display a clockwise chase sequence

2. Release the bottom two buttons.

Each button will flash quickly (4Hz) if an IR code has been learnt, or slowly (1Hz) if not
No network communication will operate while in Learn Mode
Learn Mode will automatically exit after 60 seconds of inactivity

To learn an IR code:

1. Briefly press and release a single button which should learn the IR code.

The button will start flashing rapidly (8Hz) and the other buttons will extinguish

2. Within ten seconds, point the IR remote at the BPS and press and hold the desired key.

The buttons will display a clockwise chase sequence when the IR code has been learnt

3. Release the key on the IR remote.

The button now will be flashing quickly (4Hz) to indicate that it has an IR code stored

To erase an IR code:

1. Press and hold for three seconds the button which should erase its IR code.

The buttons will display a clockwise chase sequence when the IR code has been erased

2. Release the button.

The button will now be flashing slowly (1Hz) to indicate that it has no IR code stored

To test an IR code:

1. Point the IR remote at the BPS and press and hold the key to test.

The button(s) that has learnt this code will illuminate solidly, all others will extinguish

2. Release the key and test the others.

To exit Learn Mode:

1. Press the reset button or wait for 60 seconds.

The buttons will now revert to normal operation
Network communication will resume
