This user’s guide contains information on using the Fujitsu Remote 
Control with systems running Microsoft® Windows® XP Media 
Center Edition as the operating system. The remote control can be 
used with a system running Windows XP Media Center Edition, 
whether the system has an internal TV tuner or not.

You are strongly advised to read this manual to familiarize yourself 
with the features of the remote control.

Determining Your System Configuration

Your remote control can be used with your computer whether you 
have a TV tuner or not. If you do not have a TV tuner, you can use 
the remote control to operate the Windows XP Media Center 
Edition features, such as playing DVDs, listening to music, or 
viewing digital photo albums.

If you have a TV tuner installed, you can use the remote to control 
the channel and volume, pause live TV, and record TV programs.

Figures 1, 2, and 3 illustrate the three ways your system can be 
configured: 

No TV Tuner

TV Tuner with direct signal

TV Tuner with signal routed through set-top box
