2 Installation Instructions

Overview

The Remote for iTunes can be used when it is directly connected to your computer (standard
configuration) or when it is connected to your Airport Express (when you have upgraded your
Remote for iTunes). Depending on where the Remote for iTunes RECEIVER is connected, you
will have different ways of controlling your computer.

When the Remote for iTunes receiver is connected to your Mac or Windows computer, you will be
able to control any application by using the Keyspan Remote for iTunes software. In this setup,
your Keyspan Remote for iTunes and your computer are in close proximity of each other. In this
setup, the Remote for iTunes uses Keyspan's software to control your applications. The Keyspan
software is preconfigured to control many popular media applications (such as iTunes, PowerPoint,
Windows Media Player, etc.) and you can also customize the Keyspan software to perform
different actions (ie keystrokes, launch applications, control system volume, etc.).

If you are using your Remote for iTunes when it is connected to your Mac or Windows, you will
need to install the Keyspan software for your specific operating system. These instructions are
provided later in this section.

If you are using your Remote for iTunes when it is connected to your Airport Express, no further
Keyspan software installation is necessary (see Tech Note below).
