    Connecting an External IR 
    Receiver
    If infrared signals from the remote control cannot reach the projector due to 
    excessive distance or obstructions such as walls or cabinet doors, you can 
    connect an external IR repeater system to the IR INPUT on the PD8130/PD8150 to 
    extend the range of the remote control. See 
    Figure 3-13.
