Basic Operation
Using the Infrared Port
■ Make sure the infrared port of your notebook and the infrared
port of the device with which you want to communicate lie in
a straight line facing each other. The 2 ports should be no
more than 3 feet (1 meter) apart with no obstructions in
between. Noise from nearby equipment can cause
transmission errors.

Maintenance > System.
2. Select the Hardware tab > Device Manager button > ALI
fast infrared controller > Enable Device button.
3. Select Next > Finish > Close. Then close all open dialog
boxes.
■ To check the status of communications, open Wireless Link
by selecting Start > Control Panel > Printers & Other
Hardware > Wireless Link.
