Connect the IR Emitter
If you receive your TV signal through a set-top box, you must connect an IR
emitter (also known as an IR control cable) to the receiver to use the remote
control for Media Center PC with your TV. The receiver includes two IR
emitters. You only need to connect one emitter per set-top box.
To connect an IR emitter
1 Insert the plug at the end of an IR emitter
cable into one of the ports on the back of the
receiver.
2 Peel the protective paper from the emitter
end and afx the emitter to the front of the IR
sensor lens on the set-top box.
The IR sensor lens is typically visible on the front of the set-top box. If you
can’t nd the IR sensor lens, see the documentation that came with your
set-top box.
Using the Remote Control
You use the remote control to interact with most of the features in Media
Center. No software or setup procedure is required. Just point the remote
control at the receiver, and then enter your commands.
Your remote control has ve types of buttons:
• Navigation buttons, to move between items on the screen.
• Playback buttons, to control your media (for example, pause or stop).
• Audio-visual (AV) and power buttons, to change channels and adjust
volume.
• Numeric keypad buttons, to enter alphanumeric characters or TV
channels.
• Teletext and Fastext buttons, to access teletext functionality (if available).
For more information, see “Teletext Buttons” later in this manual.
