Connecting the Television Signal and Video Cables 43
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.
1 If 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).
2 Remove 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.
3 Plug the remote control sensor cable into a USB connector (D) on the back of the
computer.
4 Place 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.)
