Chapter 2: Connecting your TV Connecting a device to the IR OUT infrared terminal using the IR blaster cable for IR pass-through device control You can use the TV's IR OUT terminal to remotely operate many infrared remote-controlled devices enclosed within an entertainment center or similar cabinet. You will need: •Dual-wand IR blaster cable (- page 13) •Other cables as required to connect the device(s) to the TV (- pages 14, 15 and 17) To connect the IR blaster cable: 1 Locate the infrared sensor on the front of your device. This sensor is marked on some devices.* 2 Align one of the IR blaster cable's wands about 1 inch away from the infrared sensor on the front of the device and attach it using double-sided mounting tape. If you have a second device, attach the second wand in a similar manner. Note: If you do not have a second device, coil the second wand with a rubber band and leave it behind the TV. 3 Plug the IR blaster cable's plug into the TV's IR OUT terminal.

Chapter 2: Connecting your TV
Connecting a device to the IR OUT
infrared terminal using the IR
blaster cable for IR pass-through
device control
You can use the TV’s
IR OUT
terminal to remotely
operate many infrared remote-controlled devices
enclosed within an entertainment center or similar
cabinet.
You will need:
•Dual-wand IR blaster cable (
-
page 13)
•Other cables as required to connect the device(s) to the
TV (
-
pages 14, 15 and 17)
To connect the IR blaster cable:
1
Locate the infrared sensor on the front of your
device. This sensor is marked on some devices.*
2
Align one of the IR blaster cable’s wands about 1
inch away from the infrared sensor on the front of
the device and attach it using double-sided
mounting tape. If you have a second device, attach
the second wand in a similar manner.
Note:
If you do not have a second device, coil the
second wand with a rubber band and leave it behind
the TV.
3
Plug the IR blaster cable’s plug into the TV’s
IR OUT
terminal.
To control the device(s):
Point either the device’s remote control or the TV
remote control (that you previously programmed to
operate the device;
-
Chapter 3) toward the front of
the TV and press the button for the desired function.
The signal passes from the remote control through the
TV to the device via the IR blaster cable.
Note:
•
To program the remote control to operate the device(s),
see “Programming the remote control to operate your
other devices” (
-
page 28).
•
The IR pass-through feature does not support all IR-
