USING YOUR COMMUNICATION AID AS A REMOTE
CONTROL
With its built-in infrared (IR), your device can learn
infrared signals for any device you own that has a
remote control. Your device has a Remotes Activity,
which links to pages containing pre-stored commands
and icons for the basic functions for a number of
remote control devices such as X-10 Device, TV, DVD
& CD Player, etc.
There is an insertable tool called IR Remote that
functions like a Universal Remote. This tool may be
stored under an Icon Sequence or added to the
Remotes Activity – it allows access to all of your
Remote Control Appliance Signals from one page.
