Avoiding Standby While Using Infrared

If the notebook is in Standby, an infrared transmission cannot
be initiated.
If Standby initiates during an infrared transmission, the
transmission stops. To resume from Standby, briefly press
the power button. When the notebook resumes from Standby,
the transmission might resume. If the transmission does not
resume, restart the notebook.
