The two available IR types are usually IrDA (Infrared Data Association) and
ASK (Amplitude Shift Keying). An appropriate IR type for each application is
automatically selected.
•
Physical Port
The physical port for the application except TranXit is automatically set. The
physical port for TranXit is set when you install it.

1. From the Start menu, select Settings - Control Panel.
