1.0  INTRODUCTION 

Thank you for purchasing a Model C-1071 BlueBeam from Audio Authority. 

The BlueBeam is designed to allow a Sony Playstation 3 to be integrated into 

an IR remote control system. The PS3 accepts only Bluetooth commands, but 

the BlueBeam allows any universal IR remote (capable of learning the PS3 

commands) to control the PS3. This guide focusses on the Logitech Harmony 

remote, but other learning remotes or home control systems may be used.

Audio Authority offers an extensive line of audio and video switchers, 

converters, distribution amps and extenders available for purchase online at 

www.audioauthority.com or through authorized dealers.
