Appendix C: Setting up and using IR Remote
Controls
You can use the IR Remote Controls app in Empower to control an IR
device such as a TV.
Gaining Access to the IR Remote Controls App
To gain access to the IR Remote Controls app, select Menu > Toolbox >
Applications. Then select IR Remote Controls.
If you do not see IR Remote Controls, you will need to update your
software to version 1.09 or later. If after updating your software, you
still do not see IR Remote Controls, your Accent device is configured as a
dedicated communication device. Most funding sources require that
devices are shipped as dedicated communication devices. This means
that access to some of the extended features is limited. To use the IR
Remote Controls app, the device needs to be unlocked by purchasing an
Integrated Feature Pack (IFP). An IFP provides access to Timocco™, the
Web Browser, and IR Remote Controls app.
