Infrared Problems
If you are unable to transfer files with the infrared port, check
the following:
The receiving device must be positioned properly. There
must be no more than three feet of distance between the
computer’s infrared port and the receiving infrared
device.
The sending and receiving devices need to be on the
same level vertically. Place them on the same table if
possible.
Make sure the infrared ports on the sending and
receiving devices face each other, with no more than a
30% angle between the two infrared ports.
Make sure that nothing is obstructing the file transfer
path between the computer’s infrared port and the
receiving infrared device.
Check to see if the COM2 Mode field in System Setup is
set to FIR. The field must be enabled before you can use
the infrared port.
If you still cannot transfer a file, see the documentation for
the infrared software.
