Receiver SBC LI 805

Receiver

The Philips SBC LI 805 receiver can be used as receiver for the SBC RU 885

R(adio) F(requency) remote control as well as additional receiver for the

SBC LI 800 Remote Control extender set. When used in conjunction with

the RU 885 you can operate most IR driven equipment (e.g. Hi-Fi sets,

VCRs, Sat-receivers, etc.) from anywhere in your house without actually

seeing the equipment or aiming the remote control at it. For operation with

the LI 800 extender set, see the User Guide of the set.

The RU 885 is able to send RF (radio frequency) signals that go through

walls or, if your equipment is located in a cabinet, through the cabinet door.

When receiving a signal from the RU 885, the receiver re-converts the

RF-signal to a propriate IR signal and sends it to the equipment you wish to

operate.

In case you wish to control equipment in different rooms you can extend

your equipment with more LI 805 receivers.

IR extension cord

The extension cord can be connected if the receiver is located in a cabinet

or if you do not want to place the unit in front of your equipment.The cord

has three IR lights that allow you to operate three devices simultaneously.

Adapter

For connecting the receiver to the mains supply.

To ensure you get the best performance from your receiver please read this 

manual carefully.

Important information

should be read before using the receiver.

Troubleshooting

If a fault occurs, first check the points listed below. If you are unable to

remedy a problem by following these hints, contact the helpline

(see page 2)

or consult your dealer.

Under no circumstances should you try to repair the receiver yourself as

this will invalidate the guarantee.

The receiver should work with almost any equipment except for some

brands mentioned in the previous paragraph.

In case the receiver does not work, check the following points:

• Is the receiver connected to the mains supply?

• Does the remote control have fresh batteries?

• Is the distance between remote control and receiver less than 

15 meters?

• Is the receiver in line of site and facing the equipment to operate? 

If this is not possible, connect the extension cord.

• When using the extension cord:

check if IR lights are properly attached to the IR sensors of your

equipment.

• Is the RF functionality of the RU 885 is enabled? See RU 885 User Guide.

• Make sure no massive metal parts are between the remote control and

the receiver. Metal will reduce or even block the RF signal.
