2 Installation Instructions
Overview
The Express Remote can be used when it is directly connected to your computer or when it is
connected to your Airport Express. Depending on where the Express Remote RECEIVER is
connected, you will have different ways of controlling your computer.
When the Express Remote receiver is connected to your Airport Express, you will be able to control
iTunes via the Airport Express. In this setup, your Keyspan Express Remote and Airport Express
are in close proximity of each other while your computer is another location. In this setup, the
Express Remote will only control iTunes and no other application. This requires that you have
iTunes version 4.7 (or later) running on Windows 2000/XP or Mac OS X 10.3.x, Airport Express
firmware version 6.1 (or later), Keyspan Express Remote remote control model URM-17A, and
Keyspan Express Remote receiver model UIA-11H or UIA-11F.
No Keyspan software is
necessary for this setup.
Tech Note: How To Check Your Airport Express Firmware Version:
Please note that you can check your Airport Express firmware version by using
Apple's
Airport Admin Utility
. For details, please refer to your Airport Express
documentation.
When the Express Remote receiver is connected to your Mac or Windows computer, you will be
able to control any application by using the Keyspan Express Remote software. In this setup, your
Keyspan Express Remote and your computer are in close proximity of each other. In this setup,
the Express Remote uses Keyspan's software to control your applications. The Keyspan software
is preconfigured to control many popular media applications (such as iTunes, PowerPoint,
Windows Media Player, etc.) and you can also customize the Keyspan software to perform
different actions (ie keystrokes, launch applications, control system volume, etc.).
If you are using your Express Remote when it is connected to your Mac or Windows, you will
need to install additional Keyspan software for your specific operating system. These instructions
are provided later in this section.
If you are using your Express Remote when it is connected to your Airport Express, no further
Keyspan
software installation is necessary (see
Tech Note
below).
