Connecting a device to the IR OUT
infrared terminal using the IR
blaster cable for IR pass-through
device control
You can use the TV's IF{ OUT terminal (infrared pass-
through) to remotely operate (through the TV) many
infrared remote-controlled devices (such as Toshiba
infrared remote-controlled VCRs or DVD players)
enclosed within an entertainment center or similar
cabinet. Without the IF{OUT connection, the device
typically would need to be visible to operate it remotely.
You will need:
• dual-wand IR blaster cable (_i_ page 12)
• other audio/video cables as required to connect the
device(s) to the TV (_ pages 13-16)

Locate the infrared sensor on the front of your
device. This sensor is marked on some devices.*
Align one of the IR blaster cable's wands about 1
inch away from the infrared sensor on the front of
the device and attach it using double-sided
mounting tape. If you have a second device, attach
the second wand in a similar manner. (See
illustration.)
Note: If you do not have a second device, coil the second
wand with a rubber band and leave it behind the TV.
Plug the IR blaster cable's plug into the TV's IF{OUT
terminal.
To control the device(s):
Point either the device's remote control or the TV remote
control (that you previously programmed to operate the
device; _' Chapter 3) toward the front of the TV and
press the button for the desired function. The signal
passes from the remote control through the TV to the
device via the IR blaster cable.
Note:
• /fyeuusethedevice'sremotecontro/teeperatethedevice,
you also will need to use the TV's remote control to operate
the TV
• The IR pass-through feature does not support all
IR-centrolled devices; satisfactory performance may not be
attainable with certain device&
*If you cannot locate the device's infrared
sensor:
1 Turn OFF the device.
2 Starting at the lower left corner of the device, place
the end of the device's remote control (with the
infrared emitter) so it touches the front of the
device and press POWER. (Do not use the TV's
remote control for this step.)
3 If the device turns on, the point at which the remote
control touched the device is the location of the
sensor.
4 If the device does not turn on, move the remote
control slightly to the right and press POWER
again.
5 Repeat step 4 until you locate the device's infrared
sensor.
