External IR (Infrared Remote) Installation
The BDP-103 features an IR IN port on its back panel. If the player is to be installed in an equipment cabinet
where direct line-of-sight is not available for the remote control, you can purchase an external IR Remote
Sensor and plug it into the IR IN port. Place the sensor head at a location where there is direct line-of-sight to
ensure reliable operation.
