Toshiba USB TV Tuner Quick Guide 7 Installing the IR receiver 1 Place the USB IR receiver in a convenient location. Consider the following: ❖ The remote works within a distance of approximately 23 feet (7 meters). There should be an unobstructed line-of-sight from the remote control to the receiver. ❖ Avoid placing the receiver where it will be subject to intense heat or intense light. ❖ The USB cable is approximately 10 feet (3 meters) long. Be sure the receiver is within this distance from your MCE notebook computer. ❖ The IR transceiver cable is approximately 16 feet (5 meters) long. Be sure your set-top box (if used as the input to your MCE notebook computer) is within that distance from the IR receiver unit (which controls the set-top box via the IR transceiver). Skip step 2 if you are not using a set-top box (that is IR-controlled) as the signal source to your MCE notebook computer. 2 If you are connecting a set-top box, follow these directions to set up the IR transceiver (emitter) cable: ❖ Connect the IR transceiver cable to the back of the IR receiver unit. Use the connector port marked "1" if you have only one set-top box. ❖ Locate the remote control (IR) sensor window on your set-top box. This window is usually located at the front of the equipment. Refer to the manual that comes with your set-top box if needed. ❖ Remove the paper sticker from the red plastic emitter LED of the IR transceiver. Place the sticky side of the emitter LED directly on the set-top box IR sensor window. Do not totally block the window, since that may prevent you from using the IR remote that comes with the set-top box.

Installing the IR receiver
1
Place the USB IR receiver in a convenient location. Consider
the following:
The remote works within a distance of approximately 23
feet (7 meters). There should be an unobstructed
line-of-sight from the remote control to the receiver.
Avoid placing the receiver where it will be subject to
intense heat or intense light.
The USB cable is approximately 10 feet (3 meters) long.
Be sure the receiver is within this distance from your
MCE notebook computer.
The IR transceiver cable is approximately 16 feet (5
meters) long. Be sure your set-top box (if used as the input
to your MCE notebook computer) is within that distance
from the IR receiver unit (which controls the set-top box
via the IR transceiver).
Skip step 2 if you are not using a set-top box (that is IR-controlled) as the

If you are connecting a set-top box, follow these directions to
set up the IR transceiver (emitter) cable:
Connect the IR transceiver cable to the back of the IR
receiver unit. Use the connector port marked "1" if you
have only one set-top box.
Locate the remote control (IR) sensor window on your
set-top box. This window is usually located at the front of
the equipment. Refer to the manual that comes with your
set-top box if needed.
Remove the paper sticker from the red plastic emitter
LED of the IR transceiver. Place the sticky side of the
emitter LED directly on the set-top box IR sensor window.
Do not totally block the window, since that may prevent
you from using the IR remote that comes with the set-top
box.
