Positioning for Data Transfer
The AIRport 1000 infrared lens must be in a direct
line of sight with the infrared lens on the other com-
puting device. AIRport 1000 and other IrDA-
compliant infrared devices transmit data in a
30-degree cone of infrared light, as shown in the fol-
lowing diagram.
Be sure that both infrared devices are within this
30-degree cone. Files cannot be transmitted if one of
the devices is turned too far to the right or left or is
much higher or lower than the other device.
AIRport 1000 has no power switch. It shuts down
automatically when you unplug it from the COM
port or when a command from the file management
software turns it off.
Troubleshooting
■
Be sure that IrDA-compatible data management
software is installed and running on both com-
puting devices.
■
Be sure that the AIRport 1000 is firmly connected
to the COM port.
■
Be sure that the AIRport 1000 infrared lens is
clean and free of dust.
■
Be sure the infrared lenses are no more than
1 meter (39.4 inches) apart and that they are
pointed directly at each other.
■
Be sure there are no papers, books, or other
obstructions between the infrared devices.
