7) IrDA-Compliant Infrared Module / Infrared Module Connectors

The NLX-R riser includes an onboard infrared module for wireless transmitting
and receiving of data through the front panel infrared lense. 0The B9-N and
Yeong-Yang risers include an infrared module connector that supports an op-
tional wireless transmitting and receiving infrared module. This module mounts
to a small opening on system cases that support this feature. You must also con-
figure the setting through UART2 Use Infrared (see 4.4.2 I/O Device Configu-
ration)
to select whether UART2 is directed for use with COM2 or IrDA. Use
the five pins as shown in Back View and connect an appropriate ribbon cable
from the module to the motherboard’s IR connector according to the pin defini-
tions. An optional consumer infrared (CIR) set connects to the CIR and IR con-
nectors simultaneously for both wireless transmitting and remote control func-
tions through one external infrared module.
