Connecting the Remote Sensor

The remote sensor is a small device that connects to the computer and enables the remote control to work with the Windows Media Center program.

1If you have a cable TV set-top box, a satellite set-top box, or another set-top box that controls the TV signal, connect the remote control sensor cable (emitter) (A) to connector (1) on the back of the remote sensor; otherwise, skip to step 3. If you have a second set-top box, you can also use connector (2).

2Remove the paper from the backing tape on the end of the cable (B), and then press the end of the cable over the remote infrared (IR) receiver window on the cable TV set-top box (C). To locate the remote IR receiver window on the cable TV set-top box, use a flashlight to shine through the plastic on the front of most devices.

3Plug the remote control sensor cable into a USB connector (D) on the back of the computer.

4Place the remote sensor so that you can easily point at it with the remote control. (An ideal spot would be on top of the monitor or desk.)
