Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Logitech Harmony IR Extender System (Black)
Customer Review: Powerful, easy to use, suitable for multiple shelves or even large cabinets
Summary: 5 Stars
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
It's called an "extender" but really it should be called a "hider," or a "now I can stick all those gadgets in a cabinet" gadget. That's what it's designed for - not to extend the reach of your remotes. That said, this, er, extender is easy to use.
By now you know it includes the receiver, a blaster and two "mini-blasters" (I can't help but picture that tiny guy from ThunderDome - the grubby guy riding the Master Blaster around.) There's no rule stating you have to use the mini-blasters.
To simplify setup - if you have one shelf with multiple components (stacked or side-by-side) you only need the blaster. If you have multiple shelves and there is a gap between the shelves that light can pass through, you probably only need the blaster. If the shelves pretty much touch the doors when closed, then you probably need the blaster on one shelf, and a mini blaster on the other shelves.
Each blaster shoots the IR signal left, right and up. Putting the blaster on the bottom shelf MAY control the units two shelves higher IF the light can reach them.
So - start with JUST the blaster on the bottom shelf, center. Close the doors. Test all the components (of course your remote has to already be tested and working!)
The components on the top shelf not working? Add a mini-blaster to the top shelf. Make sure to point it in the correct direction. Do the same for each shelf.
If you start experiencing interference / erratic behavior, remove he mini-blaster you just added and move the other blaster around a bit - it may actually reach the components with a little repositioning.
If you do have a gap between the doors and shelves, you can add a strip of aluminum, glossy white plastic, mirror, etc. to the edges of the cabinet interior to bounce the signal up. This often helps with an IR signal and eliminates the need for another emitter.
I wound up with the main blaster on the bottom shelf and mounted a mini-blaster to the inside of a door pointing up for the top two shelves. My cabinet is narrow and tall and has 4 shelves. The main blaster handles the bottom two shelves, and the one mini-blaster handles the rest. The 2nd mini blaster is still in the box and will see use if I add another cabinet.
If you use an old dresser, then you'd put the main blaster in one drawer, and a mini-blaster in each of the other drawers. This would then cover three drawers.
