Installation Considerations
Type of Cable
The TS100 connects to the Niles infrared main system unit or
IRH610 sensor expansion hub with an individual home run of
category 5 cable. When running wires inside walls, most states
and municipalities in the U.S. specify that you must use a spe-
cial type of wire. Usually, the requirement is that the wire has a
specific “CL” fire rating, such as “CL-2” or “CL-3”. Consult
your Niles dealer, building contractor, or local building and
inspection department if unsure about which type of wire is
best for your application.
MS100 Mounting Location
The TS100 is ideal for use in applications when ceiling or wall-
mounting is undesirable. Its small size and unobtrusive appear-
ance makes it ideal for installation in existing homes or cabi-
nets with great ease and minimal custom work. Installing the
TS100 close to the primary location of the user will ensure
best performance.
The TS100 is designed to mount over or under almost any flat hori-
zontal surface. Convenient mounting locations for the TS100 are:
• On top of a television set
• On a shelf in an entertaiment center
• Under a shelf in an entertanment center
Receiving Range and Pickup Angle
The receiving range of the TS100 will vary according to the IR
output strength of the remote control being used. Remote
strength varies among brands depending on the number and

”Tech Tip“
Wire size is
expressed by it's
AWG (American
Wire Gauge) num-
ber. The lower the
AWG number, the
larger the wire, i.e.,
20 AWG wire
is physically larger
than 22 AWG.
