B-2 Establishing IR Communications with the PT878GC
*May require QuickBeam installation under some circumstances
when Windows built-in support fails. QuickBeam is a recom-
mended infrared file software transfer utility from Extended Sys-
tems, Inc. Since Windows NT4.0 does not provide built-in support
for IR file transfer, QuickBeam is necessary with this operating sys-
tem.
Windows 2000/XP
Both Windows 2000 and XP include infrared drivers in their
operating systems. From the Control Panel, click on Add New
Hardware and select the appropriate IR port, whether built-in or
using an external dongle.
Windows NT4.0
For IR use, Windows NT4.0 requires installation of QuickBeam
software from Extended Systems (www.extendedsystems.com
).
Desktop PCs and laptops without built-in IR ports also require
adding an IR dongle. While laptops with a built-in IR port
normally do not require a dongle, its addition might be necessary
in some cases.
