Setting up the HP TouchSmart PC with a set-top box
Select models only
If your TV signal requires a cable TV set-top box, a satellite set-top box, or another set-top box, you must
connect the IR emitter cable to the computer and your set-top box to use the remote control properly. TV
tuners and remote controls are included in select models only.
The IR emitter cable is a remote control sensing device that connects to the computer and covers the remote
sensor on a set-top box. It enables the remote control that came with your HP TouchSmart PC to operate
your set-top box when you use the Windows Media Center program to select TV channels.
To use a set-top box with Windows Media Center:
1
Connect the IR emitter cable (
A
) to the IR Out connector (
D
) on the back of the computer.
2
Remove the paper from the backing tape on the end of the cable (
B
), and then press the end of the
cable over the remote IR sensor (receiver) window on the set-top box (
C
). To locate the remote infrared
sensor window, shine a flashlight through the plastic on the front of the set-top box.
3
Point the remote control at the front of the HP TouchSmart PC (
