SUMMARY

Some devices use infrared receivers that are outside of the frequency range that the TC1000 is capable of transmitting.

Other devices that appear to be controlled by an infrared remote control may actually be controlled by an RF (Radio Frequency) or UHF (Ultra High Frequency) remote control.

Some devices can receive both infrared and RF transmissions. Contact your manufacturer for more information about the communications capability of your device.
