Using the remote control
To use the remote control to operate Media Center Edition, you
must use the remote control receiver included with the remote
control. The system infrared port cannot be used to operate the
remote control.
Note the following when using the remote control:
■
The receiver should be placed in a location where it is not
obstructed. You should be able to point the remote control
directly at the receiver. Keep the receiver out of direct sunlight,
otherwise reception may prove faulty and the effective distance
may be affected.
■
If a plasma display, plasma TV, or halogen heater is located close
to the device, the remote control may not work properly due to
infrared interference. Relocate the devices if they interfere with
the remote control operation.
■
The infrared control cable should be fixed as close as possible to
the remote control receiver of the set-top box so as to avoid
directing the signal to the computer's infrared port.
Using the remote control is fairly intuitive. For specific information
on using particular features, click the Start button to display the
main menu. Scroll down to Settings and press the OK button. A
submenu containing a variety of help topics appear. Click on the
desired submenu to access related topics.
To exit the Help menu, click on the Start button to return to the
main menu.
