1 Remote control component functions

The infrared lens on the remote control links the remote control to the computer. The link requires a line­of-sight path between the infrared lens on the remote control and the infrared lens on the computer.
Things to remember:
The remote control operates within Windows® and QuickPlay (select computer models only). Each
button responds according to which application is active.
NOTE For information on using QuickPlay, refer to the QuickPlay online Help.
Some remote control buttons perform the same functions as computer buttons. For example, the
power button on the remote control and the power button on the computer have the same functions and can be used interchangeably.
Some remote control buttons perform the same functions as computer hotkeys. Refer to the
computer user guide for information on supported hotkeys.
Other remote control buttons provide functions that are not duplicated by computer buttons or
preset key combinations.
