Controlling Infl'ared Remote-Controlled Devices Through The Monitor (Ir Pass-Through) - Toshiba 51HC85 Owner's Manual

Controlling infrared remote-controlled devices through the monitor (IR pass-through)
x_m can use the monitor's IR OUT terminal (infrared pass-through)
to remotely operate (through the monitor) many infrared remote-
controlled devices (such as a Toshiba infrared remote-controlled VCR
or DVD player) enclosed within an entertainment center or similar
cabinet. Without the IR OUT connection, the device typically would
need to be visible to operate it remotely.
Ybu will need:
• one dual-wand IR blaster cable (included with your monitor)

function. The signal passes from the
remote control through the monitor to
the device via the IR blaster cable.
