Connecting Infrared Equipment NOTE: Infrared-equipped computers are IrDA-compliant. Infrared performance may vary depending on performance of infrared peripherals, distance between infrared devices, and applications used. The infrared port is available only on specific models. The infrared port allows wireless communication between your computer and other infrared-equipped devices. Operating system support for infrared communication is currently available with Microsoft Windows 95. However, Microsoft Windows NT Workstation support for infrared communication is not available. The infrared port produces an invisible beam of infrared light to communicate with another infrared-equipped device. To establish an infrared link: s Be sure the infrared ports on both computers are turned on and facing each other at a distance no greater than 1.5 feet (about 0.5 meter). s Avoid moving the infrared ports away from each other during data transmission. s Avoid interference from remote control units, such as wireless headphones or audio devices, pointed at the infrared ports. s Avoid direct sunlight, fluorescent light, or flashing incandescent light close to the infrared ports. s Keep the path between the infrared ports free of any objects that might interfere with data transmission. s Do not point one of the ports more than 30 degrees (plus or minus 15 degrees off the center line) away from the infrared port of the device you are connecting with. 8-4 Connecting External Devices Writer: Lorise Fazio Saved by: J Abercrombie Saved date: 12/08/98 4:11 PM Part Number: 310296-002 File name: Ch08.doc
