Chapter 2: Connecting your TV

Connecting a device to the IR OUT infrared terminal using the IR blaster cable for IR pass-through device control

You can use the TV’s IR OUT terminal (infrared pass- through) to remotely operate (through the TV) many infrared remote-controlled devices (such as Toshiba infrared remote- controlled VCRs or DVD players) enclosed within an entertainment center or similar cabinet. Without the IR OUT connection, the device typically would need to be visible to operate it remotely.

You will need:

dual-wand IR blaster cable (- page 13)

other audio/video cables as required to connect the device(s) to the TV (- pages 14–19)

Front of IR-controlled DVD player (for example)

Front of IR-controlled audio device (for example)

Infrared sensor

IR blaster cable wand (approx.1 inch from device)

TV upper back panel

To connect the IR blaster cable:

1 Locate the infrared sensor on the front of your device. This sensor is marked on some devices.*

2 Align one of the IR blaster cable’s wands about 1 inch away from the infrared sensor on the front of the device and attach it using double-sided mounting tape. If you have a second device, attach the second wand in a similar manner. (See illustration.)

Note: If you do not have a second device, coil the second wand with a rubber band and leave it behind the TV.

3 Plug the IR blaster cable’s plug into the TV’s IR OUT terminal.

To control the device(s):

Point either the device’s remote control or the TV remote control (that you previously programmed to operate the device; - Chapter 3) toward the front of the TV and press the button for the desired function. The signal passes from the remote control through the TV to the device via the IR blaster cable.

Note:

If you use the device’s remote control to operate the device, you also will need to use the TV’s remote control to operate the TV.

The IR pass-through feature does not support all IR-controlled devices; satisfactory performance may not be attainable with certain devices.

*If you cannot locate the device’s infrared sensor:

1Turn OFF the device.

2Starting at the lower left corner of the device, place the end of the device’s remote control (with the infrared emitter) so it touches the front of the device and press POWER. (Do not use the TV’s remote control for this step.)

3If the device turns on, the point at which the remote control touched the device is the location of the sensor.

4If the device does not turn on, move the remote control slightly to the right and press POWER again.

5Repeat step 4 until you locate the device’s infrared sensor.
