Troubleshooting
If you are having a problem installing or using your remote, here are
some things to check:
- If your USB infrared
receiver is plugged in and your PC is on, the red light on top of the
receiver should flash whenever it gets an infrared signal from almost
any infrared remote (not all, but most). If this is not flashing, make
sure that your receiver is plugged in properly. Also make sure you're
using fresh batteries in your remote.
- When testing your
remote, don't hold it TOO close to the infrared receiver (if you're
closer than an inch or two from the receiver, you may be "overloading"
the receiver, resulting in a bad signal).
- If you have any
USB hubs that are "between" your PC and the USB infrared receiver,
try unplugging the hub, and plugging the infrared receiver directly
into your PC. Not all hubs are designed properly, and a bad hub could
cause interference.
- If the there is
an icon in the bottom right of your screen (the system tray) looks like
this
,
that means your infrared receiver is plugged in and the drivers are
properly installed. If it looks like this ,
that means your infrared receiver is not plugged in, or your drivers
are not installed. If you don't see either of these icons, reboot your
computer and re-install the PC Remote software.
