Fast Infrared
The computer’s fast infrared (FIR) port allows you to do
wireless data transfer with other IR-aware computers and
peripherals such as infrared printers. The infrared port can
transfer data at speeds of up to four megabits per second
(Mbps) at a distance of up to one meter.
To use FIR, position two IR-aware devices such that their IR
ports are no more than one meter apart and offset no more
than 15 degrees.
When the two computers are in position, simply begin the
data transfer as you normally would. See your file transfer
software for details.
