Preparations for Infrared Data Communications
Set the address of your infrared communications port to enable. ( below)
Position your computer so that the port is face-to-face with the port of another computer.
Be sure the computers are not in direct contact with one another.
A port-to-port distance of 20 cm to 50 cm {8 " to 20 " } is recommended.
Problems with infrared data communications
An object is located between both ports.
There are other electronic devices nearby causing interference, such as a televi-

Direct sunlight or white glowing light, such as fluorescent lighting; can cause
interference with communications between the ports.
