Installing the Batteries

Follow the procedure below to install the batteries into the remote control unit.

1. Remove the battery cover at the back of the remote control unit.

2. Insert the two AA 1.5V batteries included in the kit.

Make sure the battery terminals are oriented properly as indicated by the

marking in the compartment.

3. Reinstall the compartment cover.

4. Press any key on the remote unit. If the transmit indicator LED lights up, the

remote control unit is operating properly.

Note: Do not mix new and old batteries or alkaline with non-alkaline batteries.

Do not use worn or leaking batteries.

Installing the IR Receiver

1. Place the USB IR receiver in a convenient location. Consider the following:

¾ The remote works within a distance of 23 feet (about 7 meters). There

should be an unobstructed line-of-sight from the remote control to the

receiver.

¾ Avoid placing the receiver where it will be subject to intense heat or

intense light.

¾ The USB cable is 9 feet 10 inches (3 meters) long. Be sure the receiver is

within this distance from your MCE PC.

¾ The IR Blaster cable is 16 feet 4 inches (5 meters) long. Be sure your set-

top box (if used as input to MCE) is within that distance from the IR

receiver unit (which controls the set-top box via the IR blaster).

Skip step 2 if you are

not

using a set-top box (that is IR-controlled) as signal

source to your MCE PC (see Figure 2).

2. Use the following procedure to set up the IR blaster (emitter) cable.

a) Connect the IR blaster cable to the back of the IR receiver unit. Use the

connector port marked “1” if you have only one set-top box.

b) Locate the remote control (IR) sensor window on your set-top box. This

window is usually located at the front of the equipment. Refer to the

manual that comes with your set-top box if needed.

c) Remove the paper sticker from the red plastic emitter LED of the IR

blaster. Place the sticky side of the emitter LED directly on the set-top

box IR sensor window. Do not totally block the window, since that may

prevent you from using the IR remote that comes with the set-top box.
