Hardware Setup

After you've connected the cables, position the IR Blaster so that it can communicate
with your Apple device. Locate the infrared sensor on your device* and mount the
IR Blaster so that the tiny light in its emitter shines on this infrared sensor. This may
require that the IR Blaster be mounted on the bottom or the side of the device, instead
of the top as shown below.
Be sure to place the IR Blaster so that the light coming from it does not accidentally
control other Apple devices on your desk. This may require rearranging things so that
they aren't affected by the IR Blaster.
*See the documentation that came with your Apple device for the exact location of the
infrared port.

Software setup

Install SlingPlayer and configure your Slingbox using the Setup Assistant, just as you
would with any other audio/video source.
