Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Advice from Axiom Owners Sony CDP-CX355 300 MegaChanger Question...

cover half the player with card board, aim and shoot, work your way down from there.

Ain't it just like someone to waltz in here with common sense and efficiency and ruin all the fun.

well, yes. That would be the better way to do it.

Well fellows I finally found the sensor window. Mike and Peter thanks for suggestions, they made me go 'DOH' but after trying my hand, a piece of cardboard and then a 3" thick book to cover the front of the player to cover the sensor window I then discovered that Sony must make one of the strongest remotes on the planet. No matter what I covered the front of the unit with the remote still worked at close range.

So...

I did my best orangutan impersonation and dangled the Elan IRE2 Emitter in front of the unit while trying to stand with my arms outstretched as far as possible to aim the remote at the Elan IRS1 Sensor mounted on the TV stand in the front of the room. I moved the equipment mounted IRE2 emitter around the display window and wallah, it is located where I originally thought along the top edge towards the right hand side of the display window.

Yes Tom I am installing an Elan IR system to my equipment so that we will be capable of aiming the remote at the TV and having the equipment in the back of the room be controlled. I actually have the system installed and the Sony disc players were the last items to get connected. It's a pretty slick system, thus far I really like it.

So, the sensor is in the upper right corner of the window, but the "IR" indicator is on the LOWER right corner of the window?

Nice.

Thanks, Rick!

Yessir Mr. Tom, the 'IR' emblem is certainly not where the IR sensor window is ... not on the 300 disc changer anyway.

Maybe they got confused with the disc changer and Ryan Newman's Sony sponsored Dodge, "Hideki ... the IR decal is supposed to go on the CAR!"

Who knows!

LMFAO!!!!!

I don't even know what you look like Rick, but I'm imagining you doing this contortionists act with the book and remote....

Oh, and you're a very old man with a big pot belly and bald btw.... Just kidd' bud.

F- that was funny.....

All while trying not to spill my beer Mike.
