Performing operations by RC on this unit without visual contact

You can connect an external IR receiver to the REMOTE CONTROL connectors to perform operations on this unit with the included remote control unit without visual contact. This might be necessary if the unit is hidden in a cupboard or corner, so you can’t directly point with the remote control unit to the device.
