30 Slingbox User Guide
IR control setup
The Slingbox attempts to communicate with your external device
on this screen using the supplied IR control cable. The test is per-
formed using a button that will communicate with your device.
Click the button beneath the video window to test the IR connec-
tion. Click Next to continue to the next screen if your device
responded properly.
If the test does not work
• Make sure you securely attached the IR control cable to the
Slingbox. The cable clicks in when fully inserted.
• Make sure the emitter ends of the IR control cable point at
your device’s IR sensor.
• Make sure you selected the correct television source. Click
Back to return to the previous screen to confirm your selec-
tion.
Important: If your device uses the Power button as a
test, be sure to click Power again to turn it back on.
