Connecting the Remote Sensor
The remote sensor communicates with the Media Center remote control, enabling you to change channels and to perform
other functions. If you are using a cable or satellite set-top box, you can connect the remote sensor control to the remote
sensor, which enables you to control the set-top box with the remote control.
1.
Connect the remote sensor unit to a USB port located on either the front or back panel of your computer. Place
the remote sensor in a position that enables it to communicate with your remote control.
