Setting the IR Emitter

•The ARCHOS has a high-powered infrared LED, located on the front of the device, at the same place as the infrared receiver.

•It allows your ARCHOS TV+ to communicate with your tuner (VCR, cable box, sat- ellite receiver or Digital TV receiver), so that it can turn it on and off, and change channels on it.

•This is a one time step to set your ARCHOS device to send the correct infrared codes to control your tuner. If you do not plan on making scheduled recordings, then you do not need to set the infrared emitter code.
