HOOKING UP THE IR BLASTER

The (infrared) IR Blaster is a small transmitter that enables

you to use your TV remote control to work the various functions of your VCRs, DVDs, or other acces- sory devices. Follow these steps to properly set up the IR Blaster.

Connect the IR Blaster plug

into the M-Link input located on the rear jack panel of the TV.

Place the IR Blaster on top of

the TV with the remote sensor win- dow facing into the room.

NOTE: For M-Link™ to work, the IR Blaster must be connected to the TV (as shown below) before the TV is turned ON.

SMART HELP

The IR Blaster transmits a

signal that bounces off of walls or objects in the room and then to the IR sensor windows of the accessory devices you have connected to your TV. After acces- sory devices have been set up to work with M-Link, the transmis- sion from the IR Blaster will enable you to use your TV remote control to work the accessory devices.

IR Shooters are used to more directly transfer the IR signal from the IR Blaster to the accessory

devices. You may need IR Shooters if you are using your TV set in a room decorated in light col- ors, for example, because the soft colors may prevent the IR signal from effectively bouncing and reaching the IR remote sensor win- dows of your accessory devices. You also may need the shooters if you store your accessory devices in a cabinet with a glass cover, because the cover may deflect the IR signal from the devices.

To order the optional (infrared) IR Shooters, contact your dealer, or call our Parts Information Center at 1-800-851-8885.
