BATTERY COVER (ON BACK OF REMOTE)21. IntroductionThe Keyspan RF Remote for PCs and Laptops is a powerful 2.4GHz radio frequency device that allows you to control iTunes® and other mutimedia applications on your computer in the same convenient way you control a TV or DVR at home. The URM-15T sends the same keystrokes you would on a keyboard such as PLAY, FAST FORWARD, BACK and VOLUME from distances up to 35 ft. Small and portable, the Keyspan RF Remote is the perfect accessory for home, office or travel use.1.1 System Requirements• Windows® 98/Me/2000/XP/Vista® (32 Bit)/7 (32 Bit)• Mac OS® 8.6 or greater• Mac OS X (10.2, 10.3, 10.4, 10.5 and 10.6 (32 Bit))Note: Will not operate an iPod. See www.tripplite.com for current drivers.1.2 Package Contents• Remote Control• Receiver (USB Dongle)• Quick Start Guide• Mac and Windows Compatible CD with Software and Owner’s Manual2. InstallationThe Keyspan RF Remote for PCs and Laptops is used by directly connecting the receiver (USB dongle) to an available USB port on any Mac® or Windows based computer. When connected, you will be able to control any application by using the remote in conjunction with the Keyspan software. The Keyspan software is pre-configured to control many popular media applications (such as iTunes, PowerPoint®, Windows Media® Player, etc.) and allows you to customize the remote to perform various actions such as keystrokes, application launches, controlling system volume and so much more.2.1 Installing the HardwareStep 1 Connect the Keyspan Remote’s USB dongle receiver into any available USB port on your computer.Step 2 Before you can start using your Remote, you will need to remove the clear battery protector film that separates the Remote’s battery (located on the back of the remote in the battery compartment). This protector prevents the battery from being drained before you receive the unit. First, remove the battery cover on the back of the Keyspan Remote. Then remove clear plastic film and finally replace the battery cover.Step 3 Be sure that the remote’s ON/OFF button (located on the back of the remote) is in the ON position.

Operation3.1 OverviewThis section is intended to be used as an outline for using the Keyspan RF Remote for PCs and Laptops. This information covers basic use of the remote and assumes that you have already followed the “Installation” section instructions earlier in this manual.3.2 Keyspan Remote SoftwareThe Keyspan Remote Software works by interpreting button presses on your Keyspan remote hardware and converting them to an Action that your computer can understand. These Actions can be keystrokes, system volume control, mouse movement, and others:• To ensure that you are sending the right Actions to the application you want to control, the Keyspan Remote software also detects which application is running in the foreground as the active application. Actions are sent to this foreground/active application. • Since not all programs respond to the same Actions, the Keyspan Remote software will also check if it has a Map for that foreground/active application. Maps are a group of Actions for a particular application. For example, the Keyspan Remote software has a Map for both QuickTime Player and PowerPoint. The QuickTime® Player Map specifies that pressing the Fast Forward button on your remote will send a keystroke (or keystroke combination) that will result in fast forwarding through the currently playing song. The PowerPoint Map specifies a keystroke that will result in moving to the next slide. The Keyspan Remote software comes with several Maps for many popular applications so that you don’t have to create a Map for these applications.About Actions & How To Check What Maps Are Installed: For more information about Actions, customization or to check to see what maps are installed, refer to the “Changing Remote Software Settings” section later in this manual.

Operation continued3.3 Controlling iTunes (iTunes Mode with Button Map)If you are installing the Keyspan Remote software for the rst time, the Keyspan Remote software enables a feature called ‘iTunes Mode’.IMPORTANT: iTunes Mode is only enabled on computers that are running Windows 2000, Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7 or Mac OS X (10.2 or later). iTunes mode also requires iTunes version 4.7 or greater.When iTunes Mode is enabled, the Keyspan Remote Control software will only control iTunes, regardless of which application you are currently working on. This mode requires a manual launch before you can control iTunes however you do not need to have iTunes as the active/foreground application in order to control it. You will be able to play, pause, stop, fast forward, rewind, skip to the next/previous track, control volume, mute, etc. while working in other applications.To manually launch iTunes, double click its icon. Once iTunes is running you can use the Keyspan Remote to control iTunes regardless of which application you are currently working on. Consult the following iTunes Mode Button Map for an explanation of button actions for this configuration:Note: For other applications consult the “Controlling Other Applications” section.Button iTunes ActionSTOP StopPLAY Play-PausePAUSE PauseREWIND Push: Rewind, Release: ResumeFAST FORWARD Push: Fast Forward, Release: ResumePREVIOUS TRACK Previous TrackNEXT TRACK Next TrackVOLUME UP System volume increases by 1/10 to maximumVOLUME DOWN System volume decreases by 1/10 to sound offMUTE Toggle sound on/offCYCLE Cycle application with repeatSELECT Mouse left clickMENU Mouse right clickCIRCLE UP, DOWN, FORWARD & BACK Mouse functionality (on an X, Y axis)ON/OFF (BACK PANEL) Powers the remote on/offCHANGE ID (BACK PANEL) Allows communication between remote & receiverID PAIR (USB RECEIVER) Allows communication between remote & receiverWhen iTunes is not running and iTunes Mode is enabled, you can control any application with the Keyspan Remote software. The Keyspan Remote software will then detect the active/foreground application and use that application’s Map. Once iTunes is launched, however, the Keyspan Remote software will only control iTunes. When you quit iTunes, the Keyspan Remote software will again be able to control other applications. If you are primarily interested in controlling other applications, please note that you can disable iTunes Mode (see the next section). For more information on controlling other applications besides iTunes, please read the “Controlling Other Applications” section later in this manual.
53. Operation continued3.4 Disabling iTunes ModeTo disable iTunes mode, first open the Keyspan Remote software application.MACINTOSH NOTE: Double click the KeyspanDMR application located in your Applications folder.WINDOWS NOTE: Open Keyspan Remote Assistant application located in your START menu -> PROGRAMS -> KEYSPAN REMOTE. Once the Keyspan Remote Software is running, locate the iTunes Mode check box and uncheck it to disable iTunes Mode (see the following images).3.5 Controlling Other ApplicationsTo control applications other than iTunes, you must bring that application to the foreground (make the application active). To make an application active, launch the application, or if running in the background, switch to that application making it active.Once you have your application in the foreground, the Keyspan Remote software will detect that software and send whatever Actions have been congured in that application’s Map. At this point, you can press buttons on your Keyspan remote to control your application. For a list of pre-installed Maps, please consult the following:Pre-Installed Maps for Mac Pre-Installed Maps for WindowsAppleCD Audio Player CDPLAYER.EXE PPVIEW32.EXEDVD Player CDVDPLAY.EXE QUICKTIMEPLAYER.EXEEnvision CTDVDPLY.EXE RADIO.EXEEyeTV DVDPLAYER.EXE REALJBOX.EXEFinder EXPLORER.EXE REALPLAY.EXEiTunes F32MAIN.EXE RESMNGR.EXEMacXM ITUNES.EXE SFSIREN.EXEMicrosoft® PowerPoint KDMRASST.EXE SONIQUE.EXEMUSICMATCH Jukebox KDMRDMN.EXE STATION.EXEQuickTime Player MMJB.EXE WINAMP.EXERealOne Player MOVIEPLAYER.EXE WINTV32.EXERealPlayer MPLAYER.EXE WMPLAYER.EXESoundJam™ MP MPLAYER2.EXE XINGDVD.EXEWindowsMediaPlayer POWERDVD.EXE XMMT.EXEPOWERPNT.EXE
63. Operation continuedIf you are not able to control your application it means that you either:• Do not have a Map for that application• Your application is not in the foreground (aka it is not active)• The Mapper is not running• You have a problem with your Keyspan Remote hardwareTo add a Map for an application or change what Actions are sent when you press a certain button, refer to the “Changing Remote Software Settings” section in this manual (see below). For other problems, refer to the “Troubleshooting” section later in this manual.3.6 Changing Remote Software SettingsTo change the Keyspan Remote’s default button settings you will need to access the Keyspan Remote software.Note: The following instructions outline the Keyspan Remote software for both Mac and Windows operating systems. Where instructions are different for one operating system, the difference will be noted. Although screen shots of the Keyspan Remote software may not match to your operating system, please note that the same features appear in both versions.Step 1 Open the Keyspan Remote software.MACINTOSH NOTE: Double click the KeyspanDMR application is located in your Applications folder.WINDOWS NOTE: Open Keyspan Remote Assistant application is located in your START menu -> PROGRAMS -> KEYSPAN REMOTE.This will open the Keyspan Remote window.The first screen shows the current state of your remote hardware and software. It also allows you stop and start the Mapper (the application that enables the Keyspan remote to work), enable/disable iTunes mode, control Remote Wakeup, change which Audio Mixer you want to control (Windows only), and access the Keyspan Map Editor.Remote Wakeup• The Remote Wakeup feature allows you to use your Keyspan remote to ‘wake’ your computer from sleep mode. To enable this feature, select the desired sensitivity in the Remote Software’s Settings menu.• Setting Remote Wakeup Sensitivity to “Extremely High” will make your computer wake up when very little RF data is received by the Keyspan Receiver. If the Receiver detects a simple button press on your Remote or receives any RF data from any other remote control (i.e. DVD, TV, VCR, etc.), your computer will wake up from sleep mode.• Setting Remote Wakeup Sensitivity to “Extremely Low” will make your computer wake up when the Keyspan Receiver unit receives a substantial amount of RF data. Your computer will only wake up if you press and hold a button on the remote control for several seconds or if the Receiver detects any RF data from any other remote control for an extended period of time.• This feature is turned OFF by default.
73. Operation continuedAudio Mixer (Windows Only)On Windows computers, the Audio Mixer command lets you select which audio mixer you want to control when controlling system volume.
