(The 2MB Upgrade kit is not supported.)
Computer style infrared (IrDA) ports have been designed to reduce
interference for more reliable data transfer.
To achieve this, the infrared beam has been designed to be very narrow (5
degrees).
This means you will need to aim the IrDA port directly at the target device (TV,
VCR, etc).
The infrared beam has a reach of about 2 meters (6.6 feet) with good battery condition.
Infrared beam power of SONY PEG(IrDA1.2) is weak and has a reach of about 1.5
meters ( 4.9 feet ).
Distance and height are important in making this remote work.
Vary the height, distance and angle to find what works for your environment.
The Graffiti command, the application launcher
buttons, and the scroll buttons under the graffiti area can be be
used.
These operations are effective on any of the operation screens.
Numeral view mode / Command view mode
The application launcher buttons and the scroll buttons under the
graffiti area can be used, as "Power", "Volume Up/Down"
and "Channel Up/Down".
