Setting up the HP TouchSmart PC with a Set-top Box

Watching and Recording TV
If your TV signal for Windows Media Center requires a cable TV set-top box, a satellite
set-top box, or another set-top box, you must connect the infrared (IR) emitter cable to the
computer and your set-top box in order to use the remote control properly.
The IR emitter cable is a remote control sensing device that connects to the computer and
covers the remote sensor on a set-top box. It enables the remote control that came with
your HP TouchSmart PC to operate your set-top box when you use the Windows Media
Center program to select TV channels.
To use a set-top box with Windows Media Center:
1 Connect the IR emitter cable (A) to the IR Out connector (D) on the back of the PC.
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) sensor (receiver) window on the
set-top box (C). To locate the remote infrared sensor window, shine a flashlight through
the plastic on the front of the set-top box.
3 When you use the remote control, point it at the front of the HP TouchSmart PC (E), not
at the set-top box.
WARNING: Please read "Additional Safety Information" in the Limited
Warranty and Support Guide before you install your HP TouchSmart PC and
