IR Port

The IR port on the front of your system lets your NEC Versa VX communicate with other devices that also use infrared technology. The IR port is Infrared Data Association (IrDA) compatible. You can easily transfer files between your NEC Versa Note and an IR-equipped desktop, or print to an IR-equipped printer without using cables.

IR transfer speed ranges from 2.4 Kbit/sec to 4.0 Mbit/sec. You can limit the IR transfer speed through the Infrared icon in the Windows control panel. Double click the icon and select the options to access the speed parameter.
