TP 755CDV - Using Mindpath with an IR remote
Applicable to: EMEA
Description:
Setting up the Mindpath application to work with the Mindpath infra red remote control.
Solution:
1. Put supplied batteries into remote.
2. Go to thinkpad setup and go to serial and disable and then click on infra red and enable it. Close thinkpad setup.
3. Click on Mindpath icon. Go to the infra red section and make sure that the Thinkpad Internal Infra Red is enabled. This will prompt for you to restart windows so that the remote drivers are loaded.
4. On restarting windows C:\MPFX\MPFX.EXE will be added to the LOAD= statement in the WIN.INI file so that the remote drivers are loaded each time you start Windows.
If this does not work, and the remote control gives out garbage signals, then do the following to reset the remote contol (solution from MindPath Technologies):
Press buttons 1 & 2 together. Release button 2, then release buton 1. Then press and release button 5.
This version of mindpath will not work within OS/2 Warp, from either full screen or Windows. The application is designed for Windows and as such will only run from native DOS/Windows.
